Our Mother of Perpetual Help - June 27 Since 1866 the Redemptorists have spread devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary under the icon and title of Our Mother of Perpetual Help (also known as Our Lady of Perpetual Help). According to tradition, the ancient Byzantine icon of Our Mother of Perpetual Help was stolen from a church in Crete, where many miracles had occurred. The image remained in the private possession of a Roman merchant and his family until 1499, when it was publicly displayed in the Church of St. Matthew in Rome between the Basilicas of St. Mary Major and St. John Lateran. When St. Matthew’s was destroyed in 1789, the icon was rescued and hung in an obscure monastery chapel until the Redemptorists learned that the site of their new headquarters in Rome had once been the site of St. Matthew’s, the one-time home of a miraculous icon of Our Lady. A Redemptorist priest who as a young man had frequented the monastery chapel that displayed the icon informed his brothers where to find the image. The Redemptorists asked Pope Pius IX for permission to move the icon to their new church, San Alfonso, which was built on the location of the icon’s earlier home. The pope granted his permission and told Redemptorist Martyrs of Ukraine - June 28 Bishop Nicholas Charnetsky (1884-1959) - From 1945-56, he was imprisoned in about 30 Soviet labor camps and prisons. Bishop Vasyl Velychkovsky (1903-73) - It is believed that his death was caused by a slow-acting poison administered prior to his release from prison. Father Zenon Kovalyk (1903-41) - When the Soviet prisons were opened on the arrival of the invading German army, Father Zenon’s body was found crucified to a wall of the prison of Zamartynivska in 1941. Father Ivan Ziatyk (1899-1952) - He was arrested in 1950 and condemned to 10 years imprisonment, but died of a savage beating in 1952. June 28 is the feast day of the Redemptorist martyrs of Ukraine, modern-day men who gave their lives for the faith. These men were among the 25 Ukrainian martyrs beatified during Pope St. John Paul II’s visit to Lviv in 2001. Blessed Gennaro Maria Sarnelli - June 30 Gennaro Sarnelli was born in Naples, Italy, on September 12, 1702. Son of the Baron of Ciorani, he had a solid cultural and spiritual formation. Dedicating himself to the study of jurisprudence, he gained a doctorate in civil and canon law at age 20. Caring for the sick in the Hospital for the Incurables, he felt the call to the priesthood. During this time he also came to know Alphonsus Maria de Liguori, who was his first biographer. Ordained a priest in 1732, he dedicated himself especially to the catechesis of young boys and to the rehabilitation of girls at risk of becoming prostitutes. In June of the following year, he entered the Redemptorists. He dedicated himself to the preaching of the Word of God to those who were most destitute of spiritual help. For reasons of health, in 1736, he returned to Naples, where, while continuing the missionary activity of the Redemptorists Congregation, he resumed his previous pastoral and charitable activities, especially among the sick, the old, those in prison and the young boys forced to work as dock-laborers. He also initiated a fervent movement against the spread of prostitution. A prodigious writer, he published more than 30 books on a wide range of subjects, including socio- juridical studies, moral issues, mysticism, pedagogy, pastoral practice, Mariology, and ascetical theology. In 1741, he organized and took part in the great mission among the spiritually abandoned areas in the outskirts of Naples. Spent by his burning zeal, he died in Naples June 30, 1744, at the age of 42. John Paul II beatified him on May 12, 1996. BACK TO NORMAL FOR SCHOOL SUPPLIES!

  • Autobiography
    Crostarosan Texts and Studies Maria Celeste Crostarosa Autobiography San Gerardo Publishers MARIA CELESTE CROSTAROSA Autobiography edited by Sabatino Majorano and Alessandra Simeoni This edition of the Autobiography of Maria Celeste Crostarosa has had a long and complex journey. Therefore we feel the need to thank all those people whose contributions have made it possible to bring this work to its conclusion, and most particularly: the Redemptorists - Emilio Lage, for his suggestions and for making himself fraternally available to read the manuscript; - Antonio Marrazzo for the photographic documentation, compiled with love and competence; - the Redemptoristine Sr. Filomena Occini for her patient commitment to the electronic transcription of Mother M. C. Crostarosa’s writings; - to Mrs. Maria Rosaria Taurozzi for her diligent correction of the manuscripts and drafts. A special thank you goes also to the Neapolitan Province of the Redemptorists, and to their Superior, Antonio di Masi, for his encouragement and financial aid. With the same appreciation, we would like to express our gratitude to the staff of the Valsele Printing House, beginning with their Director, P. Antonio Pasquarelli, for the dedication with which they have made this book possible. English Translator’s Note: I would certainly like to endorse all the acknowledgements recorded above at the beginning of the Italian critical edition, particularly in the case of Father Emilio Lage, without whose help and support this English translation could not have been achieved. Nevertheless, any remaining errors and lapses of judgement are my own. I would also like to record my thanks to the Redemptoristine Nuns of Australia for their unswerving support in what has been quite a challenge, in particular the Prioress, Mother Mary Teresa.

  • The Spiritual Songs of Saint Alphonsus M. Liguori(*)
    SHCSR 61 (2013) 407-423 STEFANIA NANNI THE SPIRITUAL SONGS OF SAINT ALPHONSUS M. LIGUORI (*) In 1801, the popular songbook published in Naples, edited by the famous Maestro Mattia del Piano, introduced to the public the «many beautiful and devout songs in the Tuscan language and the Neapolitan dialect» that St. Alphonsus Maria Liguori «taught people everywhere to sing» 1. It had been thirteen years since the death of the great bishop, missionary and reformer of moral theology. Thanks to the publication of various biographies and the beginning of the canonical process for Alphonsus’ beati- fication and eventual canonization, new evidence surfaced to celebrate his fame «not only as a saint but also as a literary man» and as a «connoisseur of fine music». In that pastoral and apostolic life of Saint Alphonsus, mu- sical expression was a forthright language of spiritual conver- sion, capable of renewing practices previously established (by Oratorians, Jesuits, and the Pious Workers 2). Gradually Alphon- sus had expanded his repertoire of spiritual songs and greatly increased the scope of their use. (*) The present essays constitutes a revisiting of the article: La musica dei poveri by S. Nanni and P. Saturno, published in La musica dei semplici. L’altra Controroforma , ed. by S. Nanni, Roma 2012, 261-275. 1 Mattia DEL PIANO , Canzoncine da aggiungersi al manual canzoniere inti- tolato Il freno della lingua ovvero Laudi Spirituali composte nell’idioma toscano, e napoletano per lo popolo oltre a quelle aggiunte nella seconda edizione , Napoli 1801.

For reasons of health, in 1736, he returned to Naples, where, while continuing the missionary activity in the Redemptorist Con- gregation, he took up again his previous pastoral and charitable activities, especially among the sick, the old, those in prison and the young boys forced to work as dock-laborers. He also initiated a fervent movement against the spread of prostitution. A prodigious writer, he published more than thirty books on a wide range of subjects: socio-juridical studies, moral issues, mysti- cism, pedagogy, pastoral practice, mariology and ascetical theology. In 1741 he organized and took part in the great mis- sion among the spiritually abandoned areas in the outskirts of Naples.

  • A Timeline of St Alphonsus Liguori's Life 1
    A Timeline of St Alphonsus Liguori’s Life CHAPTER ONE: CHRISTIAN LAYMAN September 27, 1696: Alphonsus is born to Giuseppe de Liguori and Anna Cavalieri, their first child. Since Alphonsus’ nearsightedness and asthma prevent him from following his own naval career, Don Giuseppe provides a thorough and extremely rigorous education for his son. This leaves Alphonsus proficient in music, art, architecture, mathematics, science, several languages, and civil and canonical law. 1713: At the age of 17, Alphonsus completes his education and becomes a successful lawyer. He enters the social whirl of the Neapolitan nobility, and his father seeks a lucrative marriage for him. 1715: Alphonsus joins the Sodality of Our Lady of the Visitation and embraces their ministry of caring for the poor. He nurses patients at the Hospital for the Incurables. 1722: During a Holy Week retreat with the Vincentian Fathers, Alphonsus decides to become a priest. Neapolitan law forbids an eldest son to enter the priesthood without his father’s permission: Don Giuseppe is violently opposed. 1723: Alphonsus loses a major court case amid rumors that his opponents bribed the judge, and resolves to leave the legal profession. His father finally agrees to let him enter the priesthood if he becomes a diocesan priest and lives at home. Alphonsus is assigned to the church of Sant’Angelo a Segno for his formation. He begins catechizing local street children. CHAPTER TWO: MISSION TO THE POOREST 1725: Alphonsus focuses his priestly studies on the Gospels, St Aquinas, and St Teresa of Avila.
