With high aspirations, high ideals and noble sentiments he restored the Order of St. John of God in Spain, Portugal and Mexico and founded in 1881, the Congregation of Sisters Hospitallers of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. He was characterized by a deep faith in Christ, a merciful and healer, with a committed look at the reality of his time. He pioneered the psychiatric care of the late nineteenth-century. He was the promotor of the centrality of the sick person during the care process, the humane touch to the patients and the consideration of madness as a disease. www.sanbenitomenni.org He founded 14 psychiatric care centres and 15 nursing care for rickety and for scrofulous chil- dren, besides which he opened communities in public centres. He died in Dinan (France), April 24, 1914.

  • My Dear Brothers and Co-Workers
    TO THE WHOLE ORDER. Bogota, October 10th. 2007 Prot No PG100/2007 My dear Brothers and Co-workers, 1 Preamble. It is just a year since we celebrated the 66th General Chapter of the Order with the title or theme of “Passion for the Hospitality of Saint John of God in the world of today.” I wanted to share with you a short reflection on what life has been like for us at the level of the General Government over that period of time, some of the things that have occurred and events that we have been involved in other than the Provincial Chapters, although obviously the Chapters took up most of our time over a seven month period. I want also to take this opportunity to give a brief overview of the Order, as I see it, having had the opportunity to preside at all of the Provincial Chapters. 1.1 God of Surprises. But first of all I would like to state something related to our election to the General Government of the Order and related matters. I recall a book that I read some years ago entitled, God of Surprises in which the author describes his own conversion from a harsh to a true image of God, one of God who is gentle and compassionate. I can safely say that God certainly surprised all of us when we were elected to serve on the General 1 Government of the Order towards the end of the General Chapter of October 2006! In my own case, while very much aware of my unworthiness and many limitations, I see my election as Prior General, as a privilege beyond words to express, which fills me with awe, wonder and I have to say at times apprehension when I think of what is expected of me and the office which I hold.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See JOHN PAUL II ANGELUS Sunday 21 November 1999 Dear Brothers and Sisters, 1. The Solemnity of Christ the King of the Universe, which ends the liturgical year, has been gladdened this morning by the canonization of 12 new saints: 10 religious, one born in Argentina, who were martyred in Spain in the 1930s; St Benedict Menni, a priest of the Hospitallers of St John of God, of Italian origin but who also worked in Spain where he founded the Hospitaller Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus; and St Thomas of Cori, a priest of the Order of Friars Minor. As I cordially greet the pilgrims who have come for this joyful event, I invite everyone to praise the Lord for the great work he has accomplished in these Gospel witnesses. I urge them in particular to contemplate the fervent devotion they had to the Mother of the Redeemer, on the day when we recall her presentation in the temple. 2. The presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the most beloved feasts of the Eastern tradition, which has also been celebrated in the West since the 14th century. Mary appears to us today as the temple in which God has placed his salvation and as the handmaid who was totally consecrated to the Lord. Each year on this day the Ecclesial Community throughout the world remembers cloistered nuns, who have embraced a totally contemplative life and live on what Providence provides for them through the generosity of the faithful. As I remind everyone of their duty not to let these consecrated sisters want for spiritual and material support, I extend my warm greeting and thanks to them.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See ADDRESS OF THE HOLY FATHER TO THE PILGRIMS FOR THE RECENT CANONIZATIONS Monday, 22 November 1999 Venerable Brothers in the Episcopate and the Priesthood, Dear Religious, Brothers and Sisters, 1. Today we meet again to renew our hymn of praise and thanksgiving to God the day after yesterday's solemn liturgy in the Vatican Basilica during which I had the joy of canonizing 12 new saints, steadfast witnesses to Christ, the King of the Universe. At the same time, let us reflect once again on their shining example of unconditional love for God and of generous devotion to the spiritual and material good of their brethren. 2. With great affection I greet the Spanish-speaking pilgrims who have come to Rome. On this occasion I extend a special greeting to the Brothers of the Christian Schools, accompanied by their students and alumni, the Passionist Fathers, as well as the members of the great Hospitaller family. These saints, beloved sons of the Church and faithful witnesses to the risen Lord, offer us the testimony of their rich spirituality, forged in daily faithfulness and unconditional self-giving to their vocation of service to neighbour. 3. The martyred Brothers of the Christian Schools canonized yesterday, followers of the charism of St John Baptist de La Salle, were totally dedicated to the complete education of children and young people. They belong to a long series of Christian educators who devoted their lives and energies to teaching in Catholic schools, committed to this indispensable service that the Church offers society. In our day the latter is sometimes individualistic and is tempted to secularism.

    The Holy See CANONIZATION OF TEN MARTYRS AND TWO PRIESTS CIRILO BERTRÁN AND EIGHT COMPANIONS, INOCENCIO DE LA INMACULADA, BENEDICT MENNI AND THOMAS OF CORI HOMILY OF THE HOLY FATHER JOHN PAUL II Sunday 21 November 1999 1. "He will sit on his glorious throne" (Mt 25: 31). Today's liturgical solemnity is dominated by Christ the King of the universe, Pantocrator, as we see him shining resplendently in the apse of ancient Christian basilicas. We contemplate this majestic image today, the last Sunday of the liturgical year. The kingship of Jesus Christ, according to the world's criteria, is paradoxical: it is the triumph of love, accomplished in the mystery of the Incarnation, Passion, Death and Resurrection of the Son of God. This saving kingship is fully revealed in the sacrifice of the Cross, the supreme act of mercy in which the salvation and judgement of the world are simultaneously brought about. Every Christian shares in Christ's kingship. In Baptism he receives by grace the inner drive to make his life a free and generous gift to God and his brethren. This appears most eloquently in the witness of the saints, who are models of humanity renewed by divine love. Today we joyfully enrol among them Cirilo Bertrán and his eight companions, Inocencio de la Inmaculada, Benedict Menni and Thomas of Cori. 2. "Christ must reign", we heard St Paul say in the second reading. The reign of Christ is already being established on earth through service of neighbour, by fighting against evil, suffering and human misery until death is defeated.

  • The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension
    The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension Introduction History of Martyrologies The Martyrology is an official liturgical book of the Catholic Church. The official Latin version of the Martyrology contains a short liturgical service the daily reading of the Martyrology’s list of saints for each day. The oldest surviving martyologies are the lists of martyrs and bishops from the fourth-century Roman Church. The martyrology wrongly attributed to St. Jerome was written in Ital in the second half of the fifth century, but all the surviving versions of it come from Gaul. It is a simple martyrology, which lists the name of the saint and the date and place of death of the saint. Historical martyrologies give a brief history of the saints. In the eighth and ninth centuries, St. Bede, Rhabanus Maurus, and Usuard all wrote historical martyrologies. The Roman Martyrology, based primarily on Usuard’s, was first published in 1583, and the edition of 1584 was made normative in the Roman rite by Gregory XIII. The post-Vatican II revision appeared first in 2001. A revision that corrected typographical errors and added 117 people canonized by Pope John Paul II between 2001 and 2004, appeared in 2005.1 The Purpose and Principles of This Martyology The primary purpose of this martyrology is to provide an historically accurate text for liturgical use at the monastery, where each day after noon prayer it is customary to read the martyrology for the following day. Some things in this martyrology are specific to the Monastery of the Ascension: namesdays of the members of the community, anniversaries of members of the community who have died, a few references to specific events or saints of local interest.

  • Original Carabanchel Hospital for Epileptics, 1899
    Original Neurosciences and History 2019; 7(2): 41-52 Carabanchel Hospital for Epileptics, 1899 S. Giménez-Roldán Neurology department, Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón, Madrid, Spain. ABSTRACT Introduction. In the latter half of the 19th century, asylums, colonies, and dedicated hospitals were built for the care of patients with epilepsy. In Spain, an asylum-institution was built for this purpose in 1899 in the rural setting of Carabanchel, not far from Madrid. Until now, limited data have been available on the medical care provided there. Methods. José Álvarez Sierra’ s 1952 book on the hospitals of Madrid and the book published in 2000 by the Brothers Hospitallers of Saint John of God to commemorate the centenary of the centre’ s foundation are fundamental references. Data on historical figures and events and the development of the hospital over time were obtained from secondary sources. Results. The Marquess of Vallejo financed the creation of the institute-asylum for epileptics in memory of his son, a lawyer, who had epilepsy. He died unexpectedly at the age of 24 years during night-time sleep following a generalised seizure, an early observation of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. Even before the hospital was completed, its facilities were made available to convalescent soldiers sent home from Cuba. The Brothers Hospitallers of Saint John of God attended to patients’ basic needs, providing instruction and occupational therapy. Based on their careers, the physicians responsible for medical care had little interest in epilepsy. In the 1970s and 1980s, Dr Díez Cuervo and a group of collaborators endeavoured to transform the old hospital into a reference centre for epilepsy.

  • To All Brothers and Sisters Hospitallers to the Hospitaller
    To all Brothers and Sisters Hospitallers To the Hospitaller Family of Saint John of God To the Hospitaller Community To friends, benefactors and volunteers To the guests for whom we care in our Centres Dear Brothers, Sisters and Friends in Hospitality: On April 24, 2014, the Congregation of the Sisters Hospitallers of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Hospitaller Order of St John of God will begin the celebrations of the centenary year of the death of St Benedict Menni, a Hospitaller Brother, and the Restorer of the Hospitaller Order of St John of God in Spain, Portugal and Mexico, and the Founder of the Congregation of the Sisters Hospitallers of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. By celebrating the Centenary year we all have before our eyes the personality and the work of this saint of Hospitality who succeeded in welcoming in and embodying the Samaritan love of God, and making that love present in the lives of so many people stricken by sickness, suffering and poverty. The example of his life enlightens us and encourages us to continue along the pathways of reaching to welcome people in, and of practising hospitality,1 following the example of Jesus our Master who passed through the world doing good and healing the sick (cf. Acts 10,38). This year, under the motto “ST BENEDICT MENNI: A HEART WITHOUT BORDERS”, will provide us all with a very special opportunity to become more intimately familiar with this great Hospitaller, who, driven by “a love that knows no borders, was unable to say ‘enough!’“,2 and devoted himself tirelessly to lovingly serve the sick and needy, in whom he unveiled the presence of Jesus who considers all we do to our fellow men and women as being done to Him: “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” (Mt 25,40).
