  • “To Express Ourselves in Accordance with the Paradox of the Incarnation
    “To express ourselves in accordance with the paradox of the Incarnation we can certainly say that God gave himself a human face, the Face of Jesus, and consequently, from now on, if we truly want to know the Face of God, all we have to do is to contemplate the Face of Jesus! In his Face we truly see who God is and what he looks like!” Pope Benedict XVI said on September 6, 2006 at his general audience on St. Peter’s Square. One week earlier on September 1, 2006, in the presence of the Archbishop of Chieti-Vasto Bruno Forte, Pope Benedict was the first pope in over 400 years to kneel before the mysterious face of Christ on the holy veil, or “Volto Santo,” which is venerated today in the Abruzzi town of Manoppello. It has been venerated there ever since it was moved after having been kept for centuries in St. Peter’s until 1527. Since September 1, 2006, the talk of the human face of God became a kind of mark in the pontificate of the Pope from Germany. In commemoration of the 10th anniversary of this event, we asked Archbishop Bruno Forte about his memories of this day. CNA: Your Grace, ten years ago, Pope Benedict XVI visited the holy veil, which is called the “Volto Santo” in Manoppello and was long known as the “Veil of Veronica”, on your invitation as the first Pope in over 400 years to visit. You stood one meter away from the Holy Father on this historic encounter.

We adore Thee, oh Christ, we praise Thee, because, by Thy holy cross, Thou hast redeemed the world. My wandering attention always circled back to the sixth station. Veronica wipes the face of Jesus. There must be this record of His features somewhere—map of His facial hair. How high the forehead of Christ? How wide set the eyes? What the noble slope of his nose? I read in an obscure passage of a dog-eared Jerusalem guidebook that the cloth of Veronica was in possession of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate. With just one day in Jerusalem to explore on my own, I take upon myself a pilgrim challenge to locate and view the cloth. Years ago, in a Mexican market of colonial antiques, one tiny object seemed almost to emit some force to hold my focus, insist I take it home.

  • Bulletin 12Th July 2020
    Bulletin 12th July 2020 Bulletin 12th July 2020 Saint Veronica….source Catholic.Org…..is known as the woman who offered a cloth to Jesus so He could wipe His face on the way to His crucifixion. The cloth is believed to exist today in the Vatican and is considered one of the most treasured relics of the Church. Saint Veronica is not mentioned in the Bible, but is known to us by Catholic tradition and in the Sixth Station of the Cross, “Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus.” Legend states that as Christ was walking to Calvary, his face dripping with sweat and blood, Saint Veronica, a bystander, was moved with compassion. She approached Jesus and offered Him a cloth, likely her veil, which He accepted and used to wipe His face. The image of his face was subsequently imprinted on the cloth. There are no legends from the period which speak of Veronica either before or after her act of compassion. We do not know when she was born or when she died. She is literally lost to history. However, the cloth may still exist today, kept safe at St. Peter’s in Rome. This particular cloth bearing the likeness of Christ’s face, although ancient and difficult to distinguish, is considered one of the most treasured relics in the Vatican. According to legend, it is the original relic, although throughout the ages many copies were created and some were passed along as genuine. Most of what we know about the veil was recorded in the medieval period, although it was first mentioned as being in the hands of Pope John VII in the early eighth century.

  • The First Witnesses Martha, Longinus and Veronica in the Slavic
    http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/2084-140X.01.07 Studia Ceranea 1, 2011, p. 101-126 Małgorzata Skowronek (Łódź) The First Witnesses. Martha, Longinus and Veronica in the Slavic Manuscript Tradition (Initial Observations) The objective of the following study is to trace the fate – as it is related in the lit- erature of the Orthodox Slavs – of three characters known to us from Early Christian sources . The first of them appears under her own name in the canonical Gospels, where the second is also referred to (albeit rather imprecisely, and anonymously), while the third – originally a legendary figure – became ‘canonical’ though identifica- tion with another anonymous character from the New Testament . The material which we shall utilize to portray those three characters com- prises literary texts written hundreds of years apart, from the Ancient Christian times (2nd–3rd centuries) until the close of the Middle Ages (the Tale of Martha – 15th century) and originating from diverse cultural milieus . From among those that are employed in liturgy, we may mention the ‘microgenre’ of the sticheron (a verse sung during service conveying the fundamental significance of the li- turgical holiday), the so-called ‘short’ or ‘prologue’ lives of saints (found in the menologia in chronological order), the ‘extended’ lives (vita, gesta, enriching the factual material with rhetorical elements) and the passions (passio) . Another, lower register of the medieval system of genres is comprised by the customarily more popular texts such as the ‘tales’ (known as slovo, literally ‘word’, in the Slavic literary tradition and occasionally approximating the gesta: ‘story’ or narratio) and the legends, both genres incorporated and adapted into official texts .

  • Bulletin 26Th July 2020,First Holy Communions and the Sacrament Of
    Bulletin 2nd August 2020 Bulletin 2nd August 2020 St Bridget of Sweden – Duplicated From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Bridget of Sweden (c. 1303 – 23 July 1373); born as Birgitta Birgersdotter, also Birgitta of Vadstena, or Saint Birgitta (Swedish: heliga Birgitta), was a mystic and saint, and founder of the Bridgettines nuns and monks after the death of her husband of twenty years. Outside of Sweden, she was also known as the Princess of Nericia[2] and was the mother of Catherine of Vadstena. (Though normally named as Bridget of Sweden, she was not a member of Swedish royalty.) She is one of the six patron saints of Europe, together with Benedict of Nursia, Saints Cyril and Methodius, Catherine of Siena and Edith Stein. The most celebrated saint of Sweden was the daughter of the knight Birger Persson[3] of the family of Finsta, governor and lawspeaker of Uppland, and one of the richest landowners of the country, and his wife Ingeborg Bengtsdotter, a member of the so-called Lawspeaker branch of theFolkunga family. Through her mother, Ingeborg, Birgitta was related to the Swedish kings of her era. She was born in 1303. There is no exact recording for which precise date. In 1316, at the age of 14[3] she married Ulf Gudmarsson of the family of Ulvåsa, Lord of Närke, to whom she bore eight children, four daughters and four sons. Six survived infancy, which was rare at that time. Her eldest daughter was Märta Ulfsdotter. Her second daughter is now honored as St. Catherine of Sweden. Her youngest daughter was Cecilia Ulvsdotter.

    heritage Article Yellowing of Ancient Linen and Its Effects on the Colours of the Holy Face of Manoppello Liberato De Caro 1 , Emilio Matricciani 2 and Giulio Fanti 3,* 1 Istituto di Cristallografia, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (IC-CNR), via Amendola 122/O, 70126 Bari, Italy; [email protected] 2 Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria, Politecnico di Milano, Piazza L. da Vinci 32, 20133 Milan, Italy; [email protected] 3 Dipartimento di Ingegneria Industriale, Via Gradenigo 6/a, Università di Padova, 35131 Padova, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 22 November 2019; Accepted: 20 December 2019; Published: 23 December 2019 Abstract: On both sides of the Veil of Manoppello, made with very thin linen, translucent linen threads, probably starched, a Holy Face of Jesus Christ is visible. During the centuries, the yellowing of the linen threads has changed the aspect of the original face, in particular producing unnatural colours of the eyes. Indeed, as inferred by some experimental evidences, both on a microscopic and a macroscopic scale, the eyes were probably originally blue. Blue was the colour mainly affected by the yellowing of the linen threads, leading to greenish shades not compatible with human irises’ colours. Thus, we think that this finding compelled an artist to retouch the eyes’ irises with brown colour. The theoretical analysis of degradation times of the cellulose contained in starched linen indicates that, at ambient temperature, the yellowing takes about ten centuries to reach 95% of its maximum. Due to its peculiar optical characteristics and historical vicissitudes, the Veil of Manoppello likely coincides with the Veronica’s Veil, the alleged relic of the face of Christ impressed during his Passion, just before his crucifixion.

The aim of the present paper is to compare the restored face of the Veil with that visible on the Turin Shroud. In particular, the paper focuses on assessing whether the two images can be superimposed, i.e., whether they are different images of the same face. Indeed, some scholars have suggested that the Veil of Manoppello and the Turin Shroud show different images of the same face. We demonstrate that the face of the Turin Shroud, after a logarithmic transformation of the intensity and the correction of the background noise, shows cheeks’ profiles, not visible before the digital processing, which overlap very well with those of the restored face of the Veil of Manoppello.
