SAINT OF THE DAY Our Lady of Fatima (Continued) JULY 15, 2018 Iria-Fátima, on 13 July 1917. The text of the Third Secret, ST. BONAVENTURE according to the Vatican, was published on 26 June 2000. The following are Lucia’s words: St. Bonaventure, known as "the seraphic doctor," was I write in obedience to you, my God, who command me born at Bagnoregio, in the Lazio region of central Italy, in to do so through his Excellency the Bishop of Leiria and 1221. He received the name of Bonaventure in consequence through your Most Holy Mother and mine. After the two parts of an exclamation of St. Francis of Assisi, when, in response which I have already explained, at the left of Our Lady and a to the pleading of the child's mother, the saint prayed for little above, we saw an Angel with a flaming sword in his left John's recovery from a dangerous illness, and, foreseeing the hand; flashing, it gave out flames that looked as though they future greatness of the little John, cried out "O Buona would set the world on fire; but they died out in contact with ventura"-O good fortune! the splendour that Our Lady radiated towards him from her At the age of twenty-two St. Bonaventure entered the right hand: pointing to the earth with his right hand, the Angel Franciscan Order. Having made his vows, he was sent to cried out in a loud voice: ‘Penance, Penance, Penance!’. And Paris to complete his studies under the celebrated doctor we saw in an immense light that is God: ‘something similar to Alexander of Hales, an Englishman and a Franciscan. After how people appear in a mirror when they pass in front of it’ a the latter's death he continued his course under his successor, Bishop dressed in White ‘we had the impression that it was John of Rochelle. In Paris he became the intimate friend of the Holy Father’. Other Bishops, Priests, men and women the great St. Thomas Aquinas. He received the degree of Religious going up a steep mountain, at the top of which there Doctor, together with St. Thomas Aquinas, ceding to his was a big Cross of rough-hewn trunks as of a cork-tree with friend against the latter's inclination, the honor of having it the bark; before reaching there the Holy Father passed first conferred upon him.

    ROUND UP THE USUALS AND A FEW OTHERS: GLIMPSES INTO THE KNOWLEDGE, ROLE, AND USE OF CHURCH FATHERS IN RUS' AND RUSSIAN MONASTICISM, LATE 11t h TO EARLY 16 t h CENTURIES David M. Goldfrank This essay originated at the time that ASEC was in its early stages and in response to a requestthat I write something aboutthe church Fathers in medieval Rus'. I already knew finding the patrology concerning just the original Greek and Syriac texts is nothing short of a researcher’s black hole. Given all the complexities in­ volved in the manuscript traditions associated with such superstar names as Basil of Caesarea, Ephrem the Syrian, John Chrysostom, and Macarius of wherever (no kidding), to name a few1 and all of The author would like to thank the staffs of the Hilandar Research Library at The Ohio State University and, of course, the monks of Hilandar Monastery for encouraging the microfilming of the Hilandar Slavic manuscripts by Ohio State. I thank the Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection; and Georgetown University’s Woodstock Theological Library as well as its Lauinger Library Reference Room for their kind help. Georgetown University’s Office of the Provost and Center for Eurasian, East European and Russian Studies provided summer research support. Thanks also to Jennifer Spock and Donald Ostrowski for their wise suggestions. 1 An excellent example of this is Plested, Macarian Legacy.

  • Hesychasm 13
    one H esychasm i e are distinguished from other animals by our inex- Whaustible quest for self-knowledge. We possess an inner reflective power that drives us in a relentless search for a meaningful existence. Instinct is the driving force in an animal to hunt for food, to mate and perpetuate the species, and to build a dwelling place of protection from other marauding animals. But only human beings possess the intellectual and volitional faculties that allow us to ask the one question that other animals cannot ask: Why do I exist? We can rove over the earth, conquering oceans, moun- tains, and all conceivable natural forces. But eventually we must return to ourselves and enter within to search for the talisman that will unlock the hidden treasures of unending happiness. However, what most of us experience when we do “return to ourselves” is a general spirit of emptiness. Dr. Rollo May described this general malaise: . the chief problem of people in the middle decade of the twentieth century is emptiness. By 11 12 P RAYER OF THE H EART that I mean not only that many people do not know what they want; they often do not have any clear idea of what they feel. When they talk about lack of autonomy, or lament their inability to make decisions—difficulties which are present in all decades—it soon becomes evident that their underlying problem is that they have no definite experience of their own desires or wants. Thus they feel swayed this way and that, with painful feelings of powerlessness, because they feel vacuous, empty.1 MEANINGLESSNESS A universal angst or anxiety fills the heart of modern man with a sense of a loss of direction, of meaninglessness.

  • STROGANOV MINYEIAS MAY Side a Row 1
    STROGANOV MINYEIAS MAY Side A Row 1 May 1: The Prophet Jeremiah is one of the great prophets of the Old Testament and lived some 600 years before the birth of Christ. Jeremiah spoke most often at the entrance to the Temple in Jerusalem where he rebuked the people for living sinful lives and foretold the coming of Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon. For this he was mocked, beaten, and almost killed. According to tradition, Jeremiah took the Ark of the Covenant after Nebuchadnezzar conquered Jerusalem and brought it to the caves of Mouth Nabath. The Ark has never been recovered and there are many theories as to its current location.
