Born Sunday, May 12, 1968 (Mother’s Day) in New York. Bapzed five days later at St. Vincent’s Catholic Church in Manhaan and Adopted September 10th that same year at 4 months old. I don’t recall ever being sat down and told by my parents, “We have something to tell you . You’re adopted”. There never was that big moment most people expect. I have been asked many mes, “When did your parents tell you?” The fact s, I always knew. From the very beginning, my mother always shared with me the joyous story of the day she received “THE CALL”, saying I was here if they were ready to meet me. Within days, they tell me they planned for my arrival. When they brought me home, the big Italian family was there to greet me outside. Every aunt, uncle and cousin welcomed me lovingly with gi s and open arms. My cousins became my “brothers and sisters” and to this day there is a special bond between all of us that is undeniable as we have spent our lives sharing holidays and summer vacaons together, even once we were grown. I have never felt “adopted”, I have always simply felt the love and loyalty of being a part of a big family with beauful tradions. As I aged and would look in the mirror at myself, the one queson that I wanted to know was simply, “Why do I look the way I look”. The only way to know the answer to this was to find my biological parents. My parents always, from the very beginning offered to assist me in finding them. However, I personally felt it would be so hurul to them.

    EARLY CHURCH TRADITION POPE CLEMENT I You [Corinthians], therefore, who laid the foundation of the rebellion [in your church], submit to the presbyters and be chastened to repentance, bending your knees in a spirit of humility (Letter to the Corinthians 57 [A.D. 80]). HERMAS [The old woman told me:] "Every prayer should be accompanied with humility: fast, therefore, and you will obtain from the Lord what you beg."

And as many as shall, in the exercise of penance, return into the unity of the Church, these, too, shall belong to God, that they may live according to Jesus Christ (Letter to the Philadelphians 3 [A.D. 110]). 1 POLYCARP Wherefore, forsaking the vanity of many, and their false doctrines, let us return to the word which has been handed down to us from the beginning; staying awake in prayer, and persevering in fasting; beseeching in our supplications the all-seeing God "not to lead us into temptation," as the Lord has said: "The spirit truly is willing, but the flesh is weak" [Matt. 26:41] (Letter to the Philippians 7 [A.D. 135]). JUSTIN MARTYR I will also relate the manner in which we dedicated ourselves to God when we had been made new through Christ; lest, if we omit this, we seem to be unfair in the explanation we are making. As many as are persuaded and believe that what we teach and say is true, and undertake to be able to live accordingly, are instructed to pray and to entreat God with fasting, for the remission of their sins that are past, we are praying and fasting with them.

  • Mediation Between King Henry Viii of England and Pope Clement Vii for a Divorce from Catherine of Aragon
    MEDIATION BETWEEN KING HENRY VIII OF ENGLAND AND POPE CLEMENT VII FOR A DIVORCE FROM CATHERINE OF ARAGON Bailey Acevedo Henry, the second son of King Henry VII and Elizabeth of York, was born on June 28, 1491.1 After his older brother Arthur’s death in 1502, Henry became heir to the English throne. When King Henry VII died in 1509, the then 18-year-old prince became King Henry VIII. Soon after, Henry gained papal dispensation from Rome to marry his brother’s widow, Catherine of Aragon.2 It is not known when Henry VIII decided that he had had enough of his wife. Despite its adverse beginnings, his union with Catherine of Aragon was an unusually good marriage.3 At the hunts, the jousts, the feasts and the religious observances that filled their time, the royal couple was always together.4 Henry’s extramarital affairs were, for a king, very few. Henry had two or three known affairs, one illegitimate offspring and another rumored.5 So far as such things can be established, it looks pretty certain that Henry loved his queen.6 In eight years of marriage, Catherine produced one daughter, Mary, five infants that did not survive, and suffered several miscarriages.7 But she was seven years older than he and, as women who suffered so many pregnancies did at that age, lost her physical attraction quite early.8 Moreover, Catherine’s failure to produce the litter of children demanded of queens even more than of wives in general preyed on her mind.9 1 BBC History, http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/people/henry_viii (last visited Nov.

  • The Rapture: Left Behind Or Left out of Scripture? the Rapture
    The Rapture: Left Behind or Left OUT of Scripture? The Rapture You may have heard the term, “The Rapture” from a Protestant friend or relative. Although the word itself doesn’t appear in Scripture, the idea that Christ will come back to rescue the “elect” from the coming period of persecutions against the Church is only about 185 years old. It is taken largely from a faulty interpretation of Scripture. The word “Rapture” is taken from the Latin Vulgate translation of 1 Thess. 4:16‐17, which says: "For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the archangel’s call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first; then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord." The Koine Greek of 1 Thess. 4:17 uses the verb form ἁρπαγησόμεθα (harpagisometha) and is rendered as harpazō (ἁρπάζω). The Latin Vulgate translates the Greek as rapiemur from the Latin verb rapio. It’s interesting to note that Protestants, who usually reject the Latin Vulgate as a “perverted” translation, will randomly adopt some of its terminologies, such as “Rapio”. The Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodox Churches, the Anglican Communion, Lutheranism and many Protestant Calvinist denominations do not hold to Rapture Theology. Rapture’s Roots Rapture theology finds its origin in the 1830’s, when an English Protestant minister named John Nelson Darby began teaching this new idea to his followers.

  • 2 Christianity Takes Root
    2 Christianity TAKES Root They devoted themselves to the teaching of the Apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. Awe came upon everyone, and many wonders and signs were done through the Apostles. All who believed were together and had all things in common; they would sell their property and possessions and divide them among all according to each one’s need. Every day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the temple area and to breaking bread in their homes. They ate their meals with exultation and sincerity of heart, praising God and enjoying favor with all the people. And every day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved. —ACTs 2:42–47 The “SEED OF THE CHURCh” ne of the important Church leaders of the second century was Bish- op Polycarp of Smyrna (69–155). Smyrna was located in present-day OIzmir, Turkey. Polycarp, along with his friend St. Ignatius of Antioch, became a staunch defender of orthodox faith, opposing various heresies that had surfaced in Asia Minor. One of his writings survives—a letter written to the Philippians. In it he quotes from the Gospels of Matthew and Luke and cites various other New Testament texts, thus demonstrating the wide disper- sal of New Testament writings at a relatively early age. In 155, the aged Bishop Polycarp was arrested by a Roman official and told to renounce his “atheistic” beliefs of refusing to worship the emperor and other Roman gods. Polycarp knew the consequences if he did not do as they said: a painful death either by being torn to death by wild animals or being burned alive on a pyre.

  • San Clemente Al Laterano Excavations
    San Clemente al Laterano Excavations The site of the basilica has a history that goes back to the Republican era of Ancient Rome. The building underwent multiple transformations, the latest of which took place in the early 12th century. After excavations were done by Irish Dominicans, these changes can be seen through the layers of construction underneath the present-day building. Each layer stems from a different time period and shows how Christianity had a growing influence on Roman life and culture. [2] The entrance to the excavations is through the shop, where you also pay the fee. They are extensive, interesting and well described in the many signs down there, so it's worth the money. Especially, signs by the frescoes provide explanations for them -although buying a guidebook is still a good idea. [1] The access staircase to the right of where you pay, which displays many fragments of sculpture, emerges at the right hand end of the narthex or entrance porch of the old church. From there, you can enter three zones separated by walls formed by blocking up the original arcades. These divide the area into the central nave (which is unequally divided by a third foundational wall), the right hand aisle and the left hand aisle. At the end of the latter is the staircase down to the next level, the ancient Roman remains. Needless to say, the vaults and the brick piers are modern. 4th century church The church was built into and above a large Roman building, and oversailed a narrow alleyway and the remains of the house-church of Flavius Clemens.

  • Cyril, Monk, and Methodius, Bishop, Patron Saints of Europe
    February 14th: Cyril, monk, and Methodius, bishop, patron saints of Europe Gospel text ( Lk 10,1-9): After this, the Lord appointed seventy-two other disciples and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place, where he himself was to go (…). Cyril, monk, and Methodius, bishop, patron saints of Europe (IXth century) EDITORIAL TEAM evangeli.net (based on texts by Benedict XVI) (Città del Vaticano, Vatican) Today we celebrate Sts. Cyril and Methodius, brothers by blood and in the faith, the so-called “Apostles to the Slavs”. Cyril, as a child, he learned the Slavonic language. In about 861, the imperial government sent him on a mission to the Khazars on the Sea of Azov. Cyril, accompanied by his brother Methodius, stayed for a long time in Crimea and sought the body of Pope Clement I who had been exiled there. Cyril found Pope Clement’s tomb and, when he made the return journey with his brother, he took Clement’s precious relics with him. Having arrived in Constantinople the two brothers were sent to Moravia by the Emperor Michael III. The mission was soon unusually successful. By translating the liturgy into the Slavonic language the two brothers earned immense popularity. However, this gave rise to hostility among the Frankish clergy who had arrived in Moravia before the Brothers… In 867 the two brothers travelled to Rome and were received by Pope Adrian II. The Pope perceived that the Slav peoples would be able to serve as a bridge and thereby help to preserve the union between the Christians of both parts of the Empire.

  • The Apostles, Andrew and Peter Lesson #3 Lesson #31
    Applied Faith Men’s Bible Study South Hills Baptist Church 7350 Granbury Rd. Fort Worth, TX 76123 The Apostles, Andrew and Peter Lesson #3 Lesson #31 Andrew Saint Andrew was born according to the Christian tradition in 6 B.C in Galilee. The New Testament states that Andrew was the brother of Simon Peter, and likewise a son of John, or Jonah. He was born in the village of Bethsaida on the Sea of Galilee. Both he and his brother Peter were fishermen by trade, hence the tradition that Jesus called them to be his disciples by saying that he will make them "fishers of men". At the beginning of Jesus' public life, they were said to have occupied the same house at Capernaum. In the Gospel of Matthew (Matt 4:18–22) and in the Gospel of Mark (Mark 1:16–20) Simon Peter and Andrew were both called together to become disciples of Jesus and "fishers of men". These narratives record that Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, observed Simon and Andrew fishing, and called them to discipleship. In the parallel incident in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 5:1–11) Andrew is not named, nor is reference made to Simon having a brother. In this narrative, Jesus initially used a boat, solely described as being Simon's, as a platform for preaching to the multitudes on the shore and then as a means to achieving a huge trawl of fish on a night which had hitherto proved fruitless. The narrative indicates that Simon was not the only fisherman in the boat (they signaled to their partners in the other boat … (Luke 5:7)) but it is not until the next chapter (Luke 6:14) that Andrew is named as Simon's brother.
