Luigi Barbarito, iI quale ha celebrato la Messa solenne in onore di San Vincenzo Pallotti, Fondatore della stessa Chiesa e della Congregazione dei Padri Pallollini a cui appartiene la Chiesa. Durantc la Messa, alIa presenza dei fedeli e dei Padri della Chiesa, concelebranti con Sua &:cellenza. I'Arcivescovo ci ha offerto una preziosa Omelia. A noi e' sembrato opponuno ricordare questa messa, citando alcuni passi dell'omelia del Nunzio Apostolico. "San Vincenzo Pallotli fondo' la Societa' dell'Apostolato Catlolico e fu uno dei piu' popolari Apostoli di Roma. Era tanto forte I'impatlo del suo ministero sacerdotale sui fcdeli di Roma chedai suoi contemporanei fu salutato come un sccondo Filippo Neri. L'intuizione piu' significativa ,della sua visione sacerdotale e missionaria sotlo ,I'azione dello Spirito Santo fu I'istituzione della'Societa~'deIl'Apostolato Catlolico., Per queltemposi tratlo' non ~Io di una iniziativa audace ma anche profetica per i Suoi sviJuppi. Sail' Vincenzo Pallotli vide'nella cooperazione Ira sacerdoti e laici iI scgreto di un apostolato piu' efficiente e fecondo per la guida morale e spirituale dei fedeli cd una vigorosa ripresa della prcdicazione del Vangelo per, far conoscere meglio e scguire con maggiore dcdicazione I'escmpio di Cristo noSlrO Salvatore. Egli invitava i'laici de!!,imo e dell'altro sesso,di ogni,sIato,grado e,condizione sociale e'professionale ache, animati dalla vera carita' cristiana coi mezzi e con le opere temporali, anche dellaloroprofessione, cooperassero nel modo piu' energico, atluato e perseverante alia propagazione della verita' catlolica..... Questo ideale egli trasmise a quanti, chiamati da Dio, entrarono a far parte della grande famiglia dell'Apostolato Catlolico, religiosi e religiose .di grande prestigio e zelo. Vorrei qui segnalare la missione dei Padri e delle Suore Pallotline tra', gli Aborigeni dell'Australia nell'aspra regione del Kimberley che ebbi modo di visitare cd apprezzare quando ero' Rappresentante del Santo Padre in Australia. Questi Religiosi, che vediamo con tanto zelo lavorare qui a Londra tia gli emigrati, sulla scia del loro Santo Fondatore si fanno con generosita' e zelo servitori e ministri del Vangelo e dell'amore di Cristo.'La So'Cieta' dell'Apostolato Catlolico fu ideata da San Vincenzo Pallotti per far sentire ai Laici cristiani iI dovere di farsi apostoli del Vangelo nel mondo in cui vivono, affiancandosi aFsacerdoti in un apostolato organizzato, molteplice e vario,come' molteplici e vari sono i bisogni dell'uomo. La sua opera e' piu' che mai atluale, particolarmente oggi, nello spirito e 'nell'insegnamento del Concilio Vaticano Secondo che ci presenta la Chicsa come popolo'di Dio'in cammino, partecipe delle sofferenze. delle ansie e delle speranze di tutta I'uinanita'; una Chicsa comunitaria' nella quale lutli i suoi membri, nella professione della mcdesima fede e uniti nel vincolo della carita' operano nell'obbcdienza ai legitlimi pastori e in modo particolare al Successore di Pietro, centro di unita' e'maestro di verita~ . Noi tutli qui presenti, in comunione con tanti altri fratelJi c sorelle nel mondo, rendiamo grazie a Dio per iI dono che Egli ha fatlo alia sua Chiesa della vHa e delle opere di San Vincenzo Pallotli e di quanti ispirati dal suo escmpio ne continuano la missione." ,
Vogliamoaffidare alle preghiere di tutli la nostra cara Maria Bailey che e" morta in Italia. Vi ricordatc bene che ~"',~=,,,,,,,' -era-Ia-moglie-del-nostro-caro-Petet'Bailey'Clle~e"Stiit

LAVAZZA Italy's No.l Coffee have just signed a ~oint venture' contract with Ponti's (the London Caterers), and the Cacchioli family (long established caterers), to develop various sites as 'PONTI'S LAVAZZA CAFFE' BARS'. Targeted at very upmarket sites, initially in the London and South East area, they will be 'show-case' units for Lavazza where consumers can enjoy both Espresso and cappuccino coffees produced to perfection, as well as genuine Italian delicacies. Lavazza has just .celebrated its Centenary, (in June 1995), and this venture marks a new and dynamic direction for the company, setting very high standards of preparation and presentation to which all Espresso and Cappuccino connoisseurs will strive to aspire. The first sites are targeted to be open in October\November 1995.
