  • December Saints
    Saint of the Day December December 1: St. Edmund Campion, Martyr St. Edmund Campion was born in 1540 in Protestant London. An exceptionally bright child, he was given a good education. He went to Oxford in 1557, during the last year of Catholic Queen Mary’s reign. In 1566, he was given the honor of leading a debate in front of Queen Elizabeth I, who was impressed by him. He became a deacon in Church of England, but soon regretted it. He left England to enter a Catholic seminary in France and became a Jesuit in 1573. He knew then that he desired to return to England and secretly minister to Catholics there, despite the dangers. In 1580, St. Edmund went back to England disguised as a jewel merchant. He secretly preached and said Masses for one year before he was arrested, imprisoned and martyred in 1581. St. Edmund is one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. December 2: St. Bibiana, Virgin and Martyr St. Bibiana was an early Christian martyr, probably living during the late 4th century in Rome. Christianity had been made legal by Constantine, but persecutions continued. Bibiana’s parents were martyred, leaving Bibiana and her sister Demetria alone in poverty. They fasted and prayed, refusing to give up their faith. Demetria died of hunger and Bibiana, after undergoing harsh questioning, died a few days later. Their home was turned into a church, and is now the site of the Basilica of Santa Bibiana. December 3: St. Francis Xavier St. Francis Xavier was born in Spain in 1506.

  • Daily Saints – 15 December St. Maria Croscifissa Di Rosa Born: 6
    Daily Saints – 15 December St. Maria Croscifissa Di Rosa Born: 6 November 1813, Brescia, Napoleonic Kingdom, Died: 15 December 1855 (aged 42), Brescia, Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia, Venerated in Roman Catholic Church, Beautified: 26 May 1940, Saint Peter's Basilica, Vatican City by Pope Pius XII, Canonized: 12 June 1954, Saint Peter's Basilica, Vatican City by Pope Pius XII, Attributes: Religious habit, Patronage: Ancelle della carità Maria Crocifissa Di Rosa (6 November 1813 – 15 December 1855) - born as Paola Francesca Di Rosa - was an Italian Roman Catholic professed religious and the founder of the Ancelle della carità (1839). Di Rosa worked first at her father's spinning mill where she - with his encouragement - tended to the spiritual and material needs of the female workers while gathering several women to dedicate their collective efforts to caring for the poor; this formed the basis for the establishment of her religious congregation. Her apostolate prioritized tending to the ill in hospitals and to soldiers going to the front. Her beatification was celebrated in mid-1940 and Pope Pius XII (who beatified her) canonized her over a decade later on 12 June 1954. Paola Francesca Di Rosa was born on 6 November 1813 in Brescia as one of nine children born to the rich industrialist Clemente Di Rosa and Countess Camilla Albani (from the noble Albani line). Di Rosa was educated by the Visitation Sisters in their convent in Brescia; she left school after her mother died in 1824. She began working in her father's large spinning mill in Acquafredda where she took instant notice of the working conditions; she became the manager when she turned nineteen.

    127 4.1 Institutes that honor Vincent de Paul as one of their patrons. AUSTRIA 4.1-AUS.839.3.1F Sisters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul of Innsbruck Founded 1839 at Innsbruck, Austria, as a development from the Sisters of Charity of Strasbourg (see 1.2-FRA.734.3F) to educate the young and care for the sick and elderly in their homes. The first candidates for this institute were formed at Munich. In 1839 it sought pontifical approval of its rule, but Rome reverted to the rule of the institute at Vienna (see 1.2-AUS.832.1.11) by the same name and ap­ pointed Reverend John Dulie as their ecclesiastical superior. This 14 institute is a member of the Vincentian Federation.

The diocesan institute (twenty-four sisters in four foundations) led bytheir superiorgeneral, Sister Leopoldine deBrandis, (1815-1900), united with the Daughters of Charity, Paris, in 1850 (see 1.1-FRA.633.22). When de Brandis died in 1900 the province had 2700 sisters and 210 houses. In 1882 this institute assisted the Sisters of Charity of Salzburg in uniting with Paris (see 4.1-AUS.844.3.1.2).

  • Quality, Identity and Mission of Comboni Schools in Sudan
    Quality, Identity and Mission of Comboni Schools in Sudan Saint Daniel Comboni and his successors created dozens of schools in Sudan, a country where 97% of the population are Muslims. How these schools developed their mission in such a context? Did they renounce or watered down that mission in order to be accepted by the local population? Why were they so well accepted by Muslim Sudanese people? This study responds to these questions through a historical review of the development of Comboni schools in Sudan, of their identity and mission, and through the application of an assessment tool based on the European Foundation for Quality Management Excellence Model. 1. Historical Development of Comboni Schools in Sudan 1.1 The Educational Vision of Comboni In Comboni´s vision educated African people were called to be the evangelizer- educators of their own people. This idea was already present in the first Catholic school founded by a Lazzarist priest in Khartoum, Luigi Montuori in 1843 (letter written by Fr. Montuori on March 12, 1843, reported by Bano, 1979, pp. 201-202; and quoted by Ballin, 2001, p. 96). The German geographer Carl Ritter explained that at the school of Khartoum, “in addition to the usual subjects they would be taught agriculture and handicrafts. After their training they would return to their tribes and become the instructors of their own people” (Ritter, 1852; cited in English by Toniolo & Hill, 1974, p. 4). That school of Khartoum would be the only Catholic school in a country with 2.5 km2 of extension until the beginning of the work of Saint Daniel Comboni who would enlarge that school (Toniolo & Hill.

  • Pope Advances Sainthood Causes, Including Brazil’
    Pope advances sainthood causes, including Brazil’s ‘Mother Teresa’ VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Pope Francis advanced the sainthood causes of four men and four women, including Blessed Dulce Lopes Pontes, the “Mother Teresa” of Brazil. The pope signed the decrees May 13 during a meeting with Cardinal Angelo Becciu, prefect of the Congregation for Saints’ Causes. The Vatican published the decrees May 14. The pope recognized the miracle needed for the canonization of the Brazilian nun, who was a member of the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Conception. Born in 1914, she was known to Brazilian Catholics as Sister Dulce, the mother of the poor. She founded the first Catholic workers’ organization in the state of Bahia, started a health clinic for poor workers and opened a school for working families. She created a hospital, an orphanage and care centers for the elderly and disabled. She was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by then-President Jose Sarney in 1988. St. John Paul II, who called her work “an example for humanity,” met her in 1980 during his first trip to Brazil and, returning in 1991, he visited her in the hospital. She died in 1992 at the age of 77 with tens of thousands attending her funeral and even more gathering for her beatification in 2011. Pope Francis also authorized the publication of a decree recognizing a miracle attributed to the intercession of Blessed Josephine Vannini, who was born in Rome in 1859 and died in 1911. She co-founded the Daughters of St. Camillus, who serve the sick and elderly.

    Facts from 1947 to 1960 Brescia A group of charitable persons took care of the lodging of Pierina Gilli in a place far from Montichiari, according to the indications of the ecclesiastical authorities: they obtained that, at least, she was temporarily accommodated at the Convent of the Franciscan Sisters of the Lily in Brescia on 20th May 1949. This temporariness lasted 19 years. Low Sunday in year 1966 On 17th April 1966, the fi rst Sunday after Easter, called Low Sunday (Dominica in albis), the Most Blessed Virgin Mary apparently appeared to Pierina in Località Fon- tanelle among the fi elds of Montichiari, near the ancient spring of St. George, and apparently She invited all the sick to go to the miraculous spring to receive mercy and consola- tion. On 13th May 1966 the Virgin Mary asked to call it “Spring of Grace” and to build a basin to receive all Her sons, in particular the sick ones. Solemnities of Corpus Christi and Transfi guration in year 1966 During the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, on 9th June 1966, Rosa Mistica apparently appeared to Pierina among the fi elds of mature wheat and ap- parently asked that the Eucharistic Bread made with that wheat, could become nourishment for so many repairing Communions.
