  • Monsignor Luigi Biraghi “Gloria Del Clero Ambrosiano”
    Monsignor Luigi Biraghi “Gloria del clero ambrosiano” Angelo Majo Monsignor Luigi Biraghi “Gloria del clero ambrosiano” ISBN 88-7023-294-8 Prima edizione 1997 Nuova edizione 2006 Copyright © 1997 NED - Nuove Edizioni Duomo soc. coop. a r. 1. 20122 Milano - Piazza Duomo 16 - tel 02 86.00.84 Proprietà letteraria riservata - Printed in Italy PREFAZIONE Alla pubblicazione della vita di mons. Luigi Biraghi (1801-1879) scritta da mons. Angelo Majo nel 1997 era stata occasione – colta dalla allora madre generale suor Maria Paola Albertario – la celebrazione del- l’anno centenario della morte di s. Ambrogio e della sorella s. Marcelli- na, dal Biraghi voluta patrona della nuova sua congregazione. Tale circostanza, letta alla luce dell’avvenimento della Beatifica- zione nella cattedrale di Milano anziché a Roma, si riveste di significato profetico. La nuova edizione vuole essere annuncio, memoria, invito. Annuncio della Beatificazione del venerabile Luigi Biraghi a Mila- no, in Duomo, il 30 aprile 2006. La Diocesi di Milano celebra per la prima volta una Beatificazione e fa memoria di una luminosa tradizione di testimonianze evangeliche, fa memoria di santi noti e ignoti che hanno incarnato la Parola di Cristo a servizio dei fratelli. Al tempo della prima pubblicazione della magistrale biografia scritta dal Majo, la Beatificazione di mons. Biraghi era un avvenimento certo, ma lontano. L’eroicità delle virtù non era ancora stata proclama- ta (lo sarà nel dicembre 2003 dal servo di Dio Giovanni Paolo II). L’attesa del grande evento è dunque vibrante nello scritto di An- gelo Majo, ma permeata di prudente, discreto silenzio. La nuova edizione ci presenta il decreto di venerabilità, proclama- to dal compianto Pontefice e si arricchisce della presentazione della professoressa Vismara, che con intelligente competenza mette in risalto la fedeltà amorosa del Biraghi alla Chiesa e la sua missione appassiona- ta di educatore profondamente colto, profondamente incarnato nel suo tempo.

  • Don Luigi Monza 1898
    FATHER LUIGI MONZA 1898 - 1954 HIS LIFE AND WORKS by Luigi Mezzadri Translated by Carmen Rigamonti In all ages God switches on some lights in the night of man. These lights are his friends. There is nothing special in them, at least for their contemporaries later on, but only later on their prophetic role can be discovered. This happens not because of their ideas: human destinies are not related to words, but because they have been mild tools in God’s hands. Father Luigi Monza has been one of these God’s friends. His gift has been the teaching that man is not a veined crystal unable to be generated. Even if man is wounded, separated, always thirsting for a love difficult to be reached, as he gets it from polluted springs a hope always remains. Love has not died. The fire of Pentecost can light the charity of the primitive community again, give life to communities able to be «One heart and one soul only» and in this way collect brothers from dispersion. It is not easy to tell Father Luigi’s life. One must get into a difficult character, one should have Father Luigi’s view, his heart, his sensitivity. But only Father Luigi himself could have done this. Should all this be missing, one must go on by hypotheses, the documents must be questioned, the facts much more. An approximate and out-of-focus portrait will always come out. People who met him can assert that Father Luigi was not like this. But such a kind of man does not need to be helped by a biography which is instead helpful to the ones who did not meet him as introduction to his writings and to the comprehension of his work.

The general purpose of the congress was to deepen one's faith, to acknowledge one’s right and duty towards the mission work and to create awareness of mission needs, providing opportunity to give public witness of Christian faith to experience the common bond of faith and Catholicity of the Church and to proclaim Christ to the world. The Indian Mission Congress brought together the three Catholic Individual Churches in India - Latin, Syro-Malabar and Syro-Malankara. The expected fruits of the Indian Mission Congress would bring a greater awareness on the part of every Catholic’s responsibility towards evangelization thereby providing an impetus to mission work in India and a fresh stimulus to our mission efforts 1.

  • MARIA ANNA SALA of the Sisters of Saint Marcelline
    Blessed MARIA ANNA SALA of the Sisters of Saint Marcelline Marcelline Edition New edition by Sister Vittoria Bertoni 3rd edition Milan – May 2020 Introduction «A great and strong wind passed that split the mountains and shattered the rocks - but the Lord was not in the wind. There was a fire - but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire, there was the soft whisper of a voice. And the Lord was in that soft whisper» (see 1 King 19, 11 13). The type of holiness of Maria Anna Sala makes us think of that calm and quiet voice, in which God was present. In order to reach great heights to soar free and joyous to the peaks of the spirit, we must, first, sink to the lowest depths of humility and live trusting in God, who can accomplish everything. This is the message that Maria Anna Sala conveyed all through her life. A hymn to God, a continuous prayer, while becoming more and more absorbed in the mystery of Jesus Christ, who knew the humility of the sepulchre; a confident progress of faith clearly knowing she was loved by God, whilst her being was possessed by Love and was singing to Love. Sister Maria Anna Sala dedicated herself totally to the religious observance of the Rules of her Congregation and to apostolic work, with an incomparable spirit of sacrifice. She was a very humble and shy person, but God had endowed her with such remarkable intellect that she was quickly recognized as a teacher of outstanding value, who gave to her pupils not only formal education and this in an age when women were kept away from intellectual learning - but also wisdom and the fear of the Lord.

    CELEBRAZIONE EUCARISTICA PRESIEDUTA DA SUA EMINENZA IL CARDINALE DIONIGI TETTAMANZI ARCIVESCOVO DI MILANO PER LA BEATIFICAZIONE DEI SERVI DI DIO LUIGI BIRAGHI E LUIGI MONZA SACERDOTI AMBROSIANI PRESIEDUTA DA SUA EMINENZA IL CARDINALE JOSÉ SARAIVA MARTINS RAPPRESENTANTE DEL SOMMO PONTEFICE BENEDETTO XVI MILANO - PIAZZA DUOMO 30 APRILE 2006 1 - I - PREPARAZIONE ALLA CELEBRAZIONE 2 3 PROFILO BIOGRAFICO DI MONSIGNOR LUIGI BIRAGHI (1801-1879) Luigi Biraghi nacque il 2 novembre 1801, quinto degli otto figli di Francesco e Maria Fini, agricoltori fittavoli di solida fede cristiana nel paese di Vignate (Milano) e fu battezzato poche ore dopo la sua nascita con i nomi di Giulio Luigi. Pochi anni dopo, l’intero clan familiare dei Biraghi si tra- sferì a Cernusco sul Naviglio, dove il padre, Francesco, e gli zii avevano acquistato alcune cascine – la Torriana,laCastellana, la Imperiale – per assicurare un avvenire migliore ai loro figli. Fu educato secondo le solide tradizioni cristiane del tempo e, in particolare, a dare sempre il meglio di sé ed all’impegno civile: lo stesso suo padre Francesco fu Sindaco di Cernusco. Ricevette il sacramento della Confermazione il 28 aprile 1807 nella chiesa prepositurale di Gorgonzola dal vescovo fran- cescano monsignor Eugenio Perina e poco dopo – tra il 1809 e il 1812 – fu accolto come convittore nel Collegio Cavalleri di Parabiago, che garantiva una completa formazione umana, cul- turale e cristiana. Sotto la guida del Rettore del Collegio, don Agostino Peregalli, che era anche parroco di Parabiago, il giovane Luigi maturò la sua vocazione al sacerdozio e il 5 dicembre 1812 fu ammesso a vestire l’abito talare dei giovani seminaristi, poiché – come scrisse sulla domanda di ammissione – era «desideroso già da alcuni anni, di abbracciare lo stato ecclesiastico».
