But in virtue of her who hath been both mother and maiden, I have begun the tale of a fair miracle, which God without doubt hath made show in honour of her who fed him with her milk. Now I shall begin and tell the tale of a nun. May God help me to handle it well, and bring it to a good end, even so according to the truth as it was told me by Brother Giselbrecht, an ordained monk of the order of Saint William; he, a dying old man, had found it in his books. The nun of whom I begin my tale was courtly and fine in her bearing; not even nowadays, I am sure, could one find another to be compared to her in manner and way of kooks. That I should praise her body in each part, exposing her beauty, would become me not well; I will tell you, then, what office she used to hold for a long time in the cloister where she wore veil. Custodian she was there, and whether it were day or night, I can tell you she was neither lazy nor slothful.

It was founded in the 13th century by Malcolm, Earl of Fife, as a daughter-house of Kinloss. After the Protestant Reformation (1560), the east end of the monastic church became the parish church of Culross. The structures in care comprise the south wall of the nave, the cloister garth, the surviving southern half of the cloister's west range and the lower parts of the east and south ranges. The 17th-century manse now occupies the NW corner of the cloister, with the garth forming the manse’s garden. The east end of the abbey church is not in state care but continues in use as a parish church. CHARACTER OF THE MONUMENT Historical Overview: 6th century - tradition holds that Culross is the site of an early Christian community headed by St Serf, and of which St Kentigern was a member.

  • Meeting of Pope Francis with the Superiors General
    Vincentiana, January-March 2014 Meeting of Pope Francis with the Superiors General Vatican Press Offi ce The Union of Superiors General held its 82nd General Assembly in the Salesianum in Rome from November 27-29, 2013. The story of three experiences provided the basis for refl ections and encounters of the various linguistic groups. Fr. Janson Hervé of the Little Brothers of Jesus spoke of “the light that helps me be at the service of my brothers and how Pope Francis strengthens my hope”. Br. Mauro Jöhri, Capu- chin, explained “how Pope Francis is an inspiration to me and a chal- lenge for the offi ce I hold within my Order” Finally, Fr. Hainz Kulüke, of the Society of the Divine Word, spoke about “leadership within a religious missionary congregation against the background of an international and inter-cultural context following the example of Pope Francis”. The Holy Father chose to meet with the Superiors in the Vatican for three hours, rather than the short encounter normally foreseen: no address was prepared in advance, but instead a long, informal and fraternal discussion took place, composed of questions and answers. Various aspects and problems of the religious life were tackled. The Pope often interspersed his speech with personal stories taken from his pastoral experience. The fi rst set of questions related to the identity and mission of consecrated life. What kind of consecrated life do we expect today? One which offers a special witness was the answer. “You must truly be witnesses of a different way of doing and being. You must embody the values of the Kingdom”.

  • Read the Rule of Saint Benedict
    The Rule of St. Benedict 1 The Rule of Saint Benedict (Translated into English. A Pax Book, preface by W.K. Lowther Clarke. London: S.P.C.K., 1931) PROLOGUE Hearken continually within thine heart, O son, giving attentive ear to the precepts of thy master. Understand with willing mind and effectually fulfil thy holy father’s admonition; that thou mayest return, by the labour of obedience, to Him from Whom, by the idleness of disobedience, thou hadst withdrawn. To this end I now address a word of exhortation to thee, whosoever thou art, who, renouncing thine own will and taking up the bright and all-conquering weapons of obedience, dost enter upon the service of thy true king, Christ the Lord. In the first place, then, when thou dost begin any good thing that is to be done, with most insistent prayer beg that it may be carried through by Him to its conclusion; so that He Who already deigns to count us among the number of His children may not at any time be made aggrieved by evil acts on our part. For in such wise is obedience due to Him, on every occasion, by reason of the good He works in us; so that not only may He never, as an irate father, disinherit us His children, but also may never, as a dread-inspiring master made angry by our misdeeds, deliver us over to perpetual punishment as most wicked slaves who would not follow Him to glory. Let us therefore now at length rise up as the Scripture incites us when it says: “Now is the hour for us to arise from sleep.” And with our eyes open to the divine light, let us with astonished ears listen to the admonition of God’s voice daily crying out and saying: “Today if ye will hear His voice, harden not your hearts.” And again: “He who has the hearing ear, let him hear what the Spirit announces to the churches.” And what does the Spirit say? “Come, children, listen to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

Translated by Francis Germovnik, C.M.* In this work I intend to study the figure of the Superior General of the Congregation of the Mission from the historicojuridical perspective. I exclude from my purpose the whole range of spiritual, apostolic, and juridical relationships, nor the fact that one and the same person is Communities. The Congregation of the Mission and the Daughters of Charity were, and continue to be, fully autonomous and independent from each other in their government. Neither the spiritual, apostolic, and juridical relationships, nor the fact that one and the same person is the Superior General of both Communities, nor the offices of the Director General and the Provincial Directors which are being discharged by the Priests of the Mission, have affected this autonomy and independence from the juridical point of view.
