  • Giovanni Merlini E La Congregazione CPPS
    John Merlini and the Missionaries of the Precious Blood in the United States Barry Fischer, C.PP.S. Introduzione Certainly one of the most important developments in Don Giovanni Merlini’s long tenure as Moderator General was the expansion of the Congregation into the United States. The decision to send missionaries to America, and the first foundations there, began already in the time of his predecessor, Don Biago Valentini, when Fr. Francis de Sales Brunner and his little band of priests and seminarians were dispatched to America in 1843. But the crucial development came during the years of Merlini’s general direction. It was during those years that the Mission in America had to come to terms with circumstances very different from those found in Europe, and had to adapt the vision and rule of the C.PP.S. to them. The theme of the relationship of the Venerable Merlini and the United States, then, is important to understanding the achievement of the expansion of the Congregation into toally new circumstances. I will develop my relazione according to the following scheme. In keeping with the subtitle of this convegno, “Tempi e personalità”, I will first say a few words about the early contact of Ven. Merlini with Fr. Brunner, the pioneer and founder of the new Mission. Understanding something of their early contact helps us understand better their future relationship, upon which would be built decisions about the course of development of the American mission. The “personalità” therefore is not without importance. 1 Next I will try to describe briefly the situation Fr.

Vicariate in India on February 19th and the canonization of St. Maria De Mattias on May 18th in Rome. They were two very different occasions, both cause for great joy and celebration! Due to the importance of these two events for our Congregation and for the larger Precious Blood Family, we decided to alter the format of this issue of The Cup in order to share with our readers some highlights of these special moments. We attempt to capture their spiritual significance as New statue of St. Maria De Mattias in Acuto, Italy well as bring to life some of the moments through photographs.

For many dioceses there were two days to which the Office of the Precious Blood was assigned, the office being in both cases the same. The reason was this: the office was at first granted to the Fathers of the Most Precious Blood only. Later, as one of the offices of the Fridays of Lent, it was assigned to the Friday after the fourth Sunday in Lent in some dioceses, including, by decision of the Fourth Provincial Council of Baltimore (1840), those in the United States. When Pope Pius IX went into exile at Gaeta in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (1849), he had as his companion Father Giovanni Merlini, third superior general of the Fathers of the Most Precious Blood. After they had arrived at Gaeta, Don Merlini suggested that the pope make a vow to extend the feast of the Precious Blood to the entire Church, if he would again recover possession of the Papal States.

  • OTTAWA, CANADA Saint Eugène Et Saint Paul Yvon Beaudoin, O.M.I
    Vie Oblate life TOME SOIXANTE-SEPT / 3 VOLUME SIXTY-SEVEN / 3 2008 OTTAWA, CANADA Saint Eugène et saint Paul Yvon Beaudoin, o.m.i. SUMMARY – The Pauline Year 2008-2009 celebrates the second millennium of the birth of the great Apostle of the Nations. It is an occasion to recall Saint Eugene’s knowledge of, and devotion to Saint Paul. References to the Apostle’s writings date back to Eugene’s seminary days in Paris. His visits to Rome, specially in 1825-1826 shortly after the destruction by fire of Saint Paul’s Basilica, and in 1854 for the dedication of the newly rebuilt church, were occasions for Saint Eugene to express his fervour towards the Apostle whom he considered as a particular model and protector of missionaries. The A. recalls how in 1850, after meeting with the Bishop of Marseilles, the Bishop of Tulle exclaimed before his clergy: “Gentlemen, I have just seen Paul!” En cette année paulinienne voulue par le pape Benoît XVI pour commémorer le deuxième millénaire de la naissance de l’Apôtre des Nations, il nous paraît opportun de souligner la vénération que lui portait notre Fondateur et qui s’exprimait entre autres dans ses nombreuses citations des écrits de saint Paul, de même que dans la ferveur qui marquait ses visites aux lieux pauliniens lors de ses voyages à Rome. «J’ai vu Paul ...» Mgr Léonard Berteaud, évêque de Tulle de 1842 à 1878, a dit à ses vicaires généraux, après avoir rencontré l’évêque de Marseille les 15-17 août 1850: «Messieurs, j’ai vu Paul1».

    Mary, Woman of the New Covenant Robert Schreiter, C.PP.S. Mary in the Life of the C.PP.S. Mary has always played an important role in the life of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood. Don Beniamino Conti has already explained the place of Our Lady of the Precious Blood—or the Madonna of the Chalice, as she is also known—in the mission preaching of St. Gaspar and the early Missionaries. In the course of the Congregation’s history, Mary has been honored under a variety of titles. We know, for example, of the importance of the title “Mary, Help of Christians” to the Venerable Giovanni Merlini. For Fr. Francis Brunner, the veneration of Mary was promoted under the titles of Mother of God and the Sorrowful Mother. Fr. Brunner set up a shrine to the Sorrowful Mother in northwest Ohio in 1850, a shrine which con- tinues under the care of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood this day. In recent years, other images of Mary have been cre- ated. Perhaps most notably is that of Mary, Our Lady of the Precious Blood as “Qaloq’Lajna’ Aj Uk’Tesinel,” her title among the Q’ecqchí in Guatemala. In Q’ecqchí ritu- al, the sacred cacao drink is served to the chief members of the community, and then to everyone, by the young women of the community. They, in turn, have received this drink from the senior women. It is a ritual which makes and seals a covenant, affirms friendship, and 253 254 C.PP.S. HERITAGE I: HISTORICAL STUDIES celebrates life.
