Full Text of ReadingsSaturday of the Fourth Week of Lent Lectionary: 249The Saint of the day is Saint Vincent FerrerSaint Vincent Ferrer's Story The polarization in the Church today is a mild breeze compared with the tornado that ripped the Church apart during the lifetime of this saint. If any saint is a patron of reconciliation, Vincent Ferrer is. Despite parental opposition, he entered the Dominican Order in his native Spain at 19. After brilliant studies, he was ordained a priest by Cardinal Peter de Luna—who would figure tragically in his life. Of a very ardent nature, Vincent practiced the austerities of his Order with great energy. He was chosen prior of the Dominican house in Valencia shortly after his ordination. The Western schism divided Christianity first between two, then three, popes. Clement VII lived at Avignon in France, Urban VI in Rome. Vincent was convinced the election of Urban was invalid, though Catherine of Siena was just as devoted a supporter of the Roman pope. In the service of Cardinal de Luna, Vincent worked to persuade Spaniards to follow Clement. When Clement died, Cardinal de Luna was elected at Avignon and became Benedict XIII. Vincent worked for him as apostolic penitentiary and Master of the Sacred Palace. But the new pope did not resign as all candidates in the conclave had sworn to do. He remained stubborn, despite being deserted by the French king and nearly all of the cardinals. Vincent became disillusioned and very ill, but finally took up the work of simply “going through the world preaching Christ,” though he felt that any renewal in the Church depended on healing the schism. An eloquent and fiery preacher, he spent the last 20 years of his life spreading the Good News in Spain, France, Switzerland, the Low Countries and Lombardy, stressing the need of repentance and the fear of coming judgment. He became known as the “Angel of the Judgment.” Vincent tried unsuccessfully, in 1408 and 1415, to persuade his former friend to resign. He finally concluded that Benedict was not the true pope. Though very ill, he mounted the pulpit before an assembly over which Benedict himself was presiding, and thundered his denunciation of the man who had ordained him a priest. Benedict fled for his life, abandoned by those who had formerly supported him. Strangely, Vincent had no part in the Council of Constance, which ended the schism. Reflection The split in the Church at the time of Vincent Ferrer should have been fatal—36 long years of having two “heads.” We cannot imagine what condition the Church today would be in if, for that length of time, half the world had followed a succession of popes in Rome, and half an equally “official” number of popes in say, Rio de Janeiro. It is an ongoing miracle that the Church has not long since been shipwrecked on the rocks of pride and ignorance, greed and ambition. Contrary to Lowell's words, “Truth forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne,” we believe that “truth is mighty, and it shall prevail”—but it sometimes takes a long time.

Readings for Saturday of the 4th Week of Lent
“This present feast is one of the greater of the whole year... Because there are three grades of sanctity which we celebrate in this feast.” St. Vincent Ferrer (1350-1419) was a Spanish Dominican friar, theologian, and renowned preacher known for his fiery sermons and missionary work across Europe. He was deeply devoted to calling people to repentance, emphasizing the urgency of salvation and often preaching about the Last Judgment. This earned him the moniker "Angel of the Judgment." In this Candlemas sermon, St. Vincent reflects on the three significant events which this great feast commemorates: the Meeting with Simeon, the Presentation of Christ, and the Purification of Mary.

Friends of the Rosary, Today, August 8, we celebrate the feast day of St. Dominic of Guzman, founder of the Order of Preachers, the Dominicans. This order, the most powerful in Medieval times, contributed immensely to maintaining the purity of the faith. Among the Dominicans were the most illustrious preachers and contemplatives, saints like Vincent Ferrer, Thomas Aquinas, and Pius V. St. Dominic was also the founder of the devotion of the Holy Rosary of Mary. Across history, saints, popes, and faithful scholars have attributed the origin and spread of the Holy Rosary to St. Dominic. At the end of the twelfth century, the Church in France was ravaged by the Albigensian heresy, a social evil doctrine. St. Dominic's Rosary preaching, apostolic poverty, and burning zeal for souls would end with the heresy of the Albigensian. St. Dominic was born in Castile, Spain. His Mother, Juana de Aza, had dreamed during her pregnancy that she was carrying in her womb a little dog that held a burning torch between its teeth, and when she gave birth, it set the whole world on fire. St. Dominic would inflame the nations to practice Christian virtue through the Rosary, his example's brightness, and his preaching's fiery ardor.

3rd April 2024 – Join Sabrina as she talks about the life and impact of St. Vincent Ferrer a Dominican preacher! […] The post E135 | Saint of the Week – Sabrina McKiernan appeared first on Radio Maria Ireland.
Friends of the Rosary: Today, we celebrate the Memorial Day of St. Dominic of Guzman (1170-1221), who received the Holy Rosary from the Virgin Mary as a means to combat the destructive heresy of the Albigensian in the twelve century. He crushed the heresy and led many souls to piety and to religious life. The Spaniard priest St. Dominic also founded the Order of Preachers —the Dominicans — in the year 1215. At that time, it was an innovative order since instead of manual labor, as practiced by the Cistercian monks, he required his friars to work with their minds by preaching and teaching. Alongside the Franciscans, the Dominicans became the most powerful Order in medieval times, giving the Church illustrious preachers — St. Vincent Ferrer, Sts. Thomas of Aquinas and Pius V, among others— and contributed immeasurably to maintaining the purity of the faith. St. Dominic, to whom popes and saints have consistently attributed the origin and spread of the holy rosary, had a saint mother, Juana de Aza. During pregnancy, Dominic's mother dreamed she was carrying in her womb a little dog that held a burning torch between its teeth; and when she had given birth, it set the whole world on fire. St Dominic died at Bologna on August 6, 1221. He was canonized three years later by Pope Gregory IX. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!

Canon Law has relegated the holy days to local bishops or provincial synodal decision. There are actually, as of 1993, only seven states in the U.S. that still celebrate the Ascension on Thursday rather than the following Sunday. I was surprised to find that Hawaii and Canada have only two holy days of obligation, Christmas and the Immaculate Conception for the former, and Christmas and the solemnity of the Mother of God (January 1) for the latter.https://catholicism.org/ascension-thursday.html St. Vincent Ferrer, O.P. – Sermon on the Ascension https://www.svfsermons.org/B189_Ascension.htm Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations

Friends of the Rosary: Today, Wednesday of Holy Week is traditionally known as Spy Wednesday, because we remember the treachery of Judas Iscariot, who made a bargain with the high priest to betray Jesus for thirty silver pieces, as we read today in the New Testament (Matt 26:14-16; Mark 14:10-11; Luke 22:1-6). This day ends the official Lenten period. Tomorrow, we will enter into the Holy Triduum, the three liturgical days of the Holy Week: Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday.

Saint Of The Day With Mike Roberts!
April 5: Saint Vincent Ferrer, Priest c. 1350–1419 Optional Memorial; Liturgical Color: White Patron Saint of builders He slept on the floor, fasted endlessly, performed miracles, and converted thousands Saint Dominic de Guzman, a Spanish priest, founded the Order of Preachers in the early thirteenth century. He wanted to establish an Order of priests who were well educated in theology, adept at preaching the truths they lived, and who had more flexibility than a monastery-bound priest to travel and evangelize. Over a century later, today's saint was born in Saint Dominic's own country, joined the Dominican Order, and carried out in the most dynamic and complete way the essential vision of Saint Dominic. Saint Vincent Ferrer was well educated and a powerfully effective preacher. He travelled almost without cease throughout Western Europe, impacting the lives of untold thousands of people through his example of holiness, his supernatural gifts, and his preaching. Saint Vincent was the ideal Dominican. Vincent was born in Valencia, on the southern coast of Spain, to an English father and a Spanish mother. He was named in honor of Saint Vincent Martyr, who met his death in the same city in the fourth century. Vincent received an excellent education and earned a doctorate in theology at a young age. It was said that he read exclusively Scripture for three full years and had committed much of it to memory. He taught philosophy and then took up advanced studies, in Barcelona, of Islam and Judaism. Spain had a sizeable minority of Jews, and Muslims still controlled large portions of Southern Spain in Saint Vincent's day. So these studies were not merely theoretical. Saint Vincent converted a large number of Spanish Jews and interacted with Spanish Muslims on a regular basis. The ecclesial event which most marked our saint's life was the Western Schism of 1378–1418. This painful episode saw two, and eventually three, cardinals claim to be the validly elected pope. This open wound pained the Church for two generations. Some Europeans lived their whole lives knowing only a bitterly divided papacy. The Western Schism proved so intractable a problem, and caused such scandal, that it can be argued that it was the remote spark of the Reformation which caught fire through Northern Europe about one hundred years later. Such were the complexities of the Schism that Saint Vincent found himself on opposite sides of the issue from Saint Catherine of Siena and various other deeply committed Catholics. Our saint spent the better part of his life as a tireless itinerant preacher traveling along the highways and the byways of Spain, France, and Italy, drawing enormous crowds, inviting and inspiring them to a deeper life in Christ. Near the end of his life, Vincent's effective preaching played a decisive role at the Council of Constance in 1414. He convinced the Spanish King to cease supporting the very pope who Vincent had previously backed in the Schism. Vincent was man enough to see that his candidate had become an obstacle to Church unity. Vincent thus lived a hard lesson in humility when his man was abandoned, excommunicated, and judged by history to have been an antipope. Saint Vincent fittingly died on one of his incessant missionary journeys, far from home in Northern France, at the age of sixty-nine. His reputation for holiness was such that he was canonized a saint in 1455, within the lifetime of many who had heard him preach. Saint Vincent Ferrer, you lived a life of fervor and dedication to the truths of the Catholic faith, imparting the education you received to others through your witness and preaching. Come to the aid of all teachers and preachers to emulate your virtues with your same zeal for the house of the Lord.
Walking with the Saints Podcast | Feast of St. Vincent Ferrer, Patron Saint of all Construction Workers l April 5 You must have seen statues of St. Vincent Ferrer with wings. Well, it is just a representation to symbolize his swiftness and eagerness to answer the call of anyone in need. Tradition, however, recalls that one day while he was preaching, the people saw him flew away, with wings like an angel, but at the same time he continued his sermon. Afterwards, it was revealed that he went to a certain place to cure a sick person. Many more miracles are attributed to him even now. St. Vincent was a Dominican friar, born in Valencia, Spain on January 23, 1350. He was brought up as a devout Catholic so much so that even as a child he would fast on Wednesdays and Fridays and distribute alms to the poor. At eight he began his classical studies and at fourteen, he studied philosophy and theology. Then, he entered the Dominican Order when he was eighteen. After religious profession, he dedicated three years in reading and studying the Scripture. He was ordained a priest in Barcelona in 1379. Eventually, he earned his Masters and then Doctorate degrees in theology. For some years St. Vincent preached the word of God and other theological subjects. Many people came to listen to him. As a noted preacher, he travelled to England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Switzerland Italy and other Spanish cities. It was also said that he converted 25,000 Jews to Catholicism. One of the rabbis whom he converted became an archbishop and former Jewish synagogues were transformed into Catholic churches. He also converted Mohammedans and heretics. During the lifetime of St. Vincent, two scourges devastated the Church. First was the Black Death or Spanish flu which killed many people in Europe including clergy and religious. In order to fill up the needed priests in the parishes, even those with no vocation were admitted into the seminaries. This resulted in so much irregularities and laxities in the practice of religion. St. Vincent worked hard to instruct the people and to reform the clergy and the religious orders. The second scourge was the Western Schism, when the pope moved to Avignon due to political problems and urged by the influence of the King of France. The absence of the papacy from Rome for 67 years is called the “Babylonian Captivity.” St. Vincent worked very hard to influence the pope to end the schism. But all these had negative effects on him that he got seriously ill. His room was suddenly filled with heavenly light and Jesus Himself shining like the sun, surrounded by a multitude of angels, together with St. Dominic and St. Francis, came and made known to him His desire: “My will is that you preach the Gospel to Gaul and Spain, reprove the sins of men and bid them prepare for the great judgment. Though wicked men will oppose you, fear nothing. I will be with you.” Thus St. Vincent was miraculously healed and continued to preach in France and Spain and in some parts of Europe for many more years. When St. Vincent preached to the nuns of Colette of Corbie, Sr. Colette prophesied that he was going to die in France. And indeed, it happened. While in Brittany, he got very ill and unable to return to Spain, he died in Vannes, Brittany on April 5, 1419 at the age of 69. St. Vincent was buried in the Basilica Catedral de San Pedro, Vannes, France. He was canonized by Pope Callixtus III on June 3, 1455. He is invoked in many difficult circumstances in life. His outstanding Virtues are: piety, humility, charity, bravery, fidelity, obedience, generosity and fortitude. “St. Vincent, please assist me in all the works I do, deliver me from all dangers, and help me to love and help the poor and the needy.”
He raised over twenty-eight people from the dead. He was known to fly through the air while preaching. He introduced thousands of Jews and Muslims to Jesus. Who is he? Find out more on "Heroes of the Faith" where we are inspired by the lives of the saints, so that we can become saints ourselves!
What if we asked our students to help design the way their school functions? At St. Vincent Ferrer, that's exactly what they do. Our guest today is their Dean of Students, Eric Keiper. He's here to tell us all about their House System and how student leadership has meant success for the Houses and the individual students. But it's also meant much more than that, it's helped to create the kind of culture we all should be striving for: A school culture, led by students, that is both competitive and empathetic. A culture that celebrates servant leadership and brings out the best in the individual. A culture that pushes all of those within it, to rise above mediocrity and accept nothing short of greatness. If you're looking for a way to change the culture within your school, Eric just might have the key you've been searching for.

Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus - There is No Salvation Outside the Church - This is a hard saying, who can accept this, are the words of the jews upon hearing the difficult teachings of Our Lord. This most esteemed mystery of the faith has been always and everywhere taught by the Church. I will first explain to you how we are saved, then I will explain this most important dogma of the faith and those who to no fault of their own do not know the Church, and the dire consequences of denying such an important truth. But first let us salute the Virgin Mary. HAIL MARY… Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us! Our Lady of Pompeii, pray for us! Our Lady Hammer of Heretics, pray for us! St. Vincent Ferrer, Pray for us! St. Leonard of Port Maurice, Pray for us! If you remember nothing else from what I have just said, let me break this down in the simplest manner possible, by anticipating some of your questions. Who will be saved? Those who die in a state of sanctifying grace. Who will be damned? Those who die in a state of mortal sin. How is one placed into sanctifying grace? By faith and Baptism. Can one lose sanctifying grace? Yes, but one mortal sin. Can one reconcile with God? Yes, by the Sacrament of Confession.

St. Vincent Ferrer, O.P._On the Assumption of the BVM Sermon I C 324-332Luke 10:38-42 As they continued their journey he entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him. She had a sister named Mary (who) sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak. Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me." The Lord said to her in reply, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her." Mary hath chosen the best part. Luke 10. Just as the present feast and solemnity is of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and this feast is the end and the closure of the life of the Virgin Mary, so therefore it is to be spoken about her life. And we have not only intellectual speculations but also moral instructions. But if in our other sermons we turn to the Virgin asking for grace, how much more now ought we return to refer to her because we intend to preach about her, so that we might call forth devotion, let us now salute the Virgin Mary etc. And the theme is resumed.Contact Me:Email: FonsecaProduction@gmail.comWebsite: http://catholicconversations.buzzsprout.comIG: @ffonzeFacebook: Adrian Fonseca Facebook: Catholic Conversations Twitter: @AdrianFonzeYouTube: Catholic ConversationsYouTube: Adrian Fonseca
Friends of the Rosary: Today is the Memorial Day of St. Dominic, founder of the Order of Preachers and the Dominican Order, which was approved in 1216. Alongside the Franciscans, the Dominican Order became the most powerful Order in medieval times, giving the Church illustrious preachers — St. Vincent Ferrer, and contemplatives, Sts. Thomas of Aquinas and Pius V. Born about 1175 in Caleruega, Castile (Spain), Dominic of Guzman received the Rosary from the Blessed Virgin Mary. He spread it during the thirteen century. Through the example of apostolic poverty and the preaching of the word of God — Rosary in hand; at that time, called the Psalter of Mary — St. Dominic led many souls to Christ. Ave Maria!

ST. BERNARDINE OF SIENA l PATRON OF THE ADVERTISING, COMMUNICATIONS, AND IS INVOKED TO HEAL RESPIRATORY ILLNESSES Feast Day: May 20 Our saint today, St. Bernardine of Siena is referred to as the “Apostle of Italy” for his efforts to revive the country's Catholic faith in the 15thcentury. He was an ardent devotee of the Most Holy Name of Jesus and to fight some heretics, he popularized the symbol IHS – the first three letters of the name of Jesus in Greek. This Christogram had several interpretations, but the most appealing was Jesus Hominum Salvator (Jesus Savior of Men) which has become popularly used in sacred vessels and vestments in Catholic churches. Bernardine was born on September 8, 1380 to a noble family in Massa Marittima, Tuscany, Italy. He was orphaned at six years of age and was raised up by a pious aunt. He studied civil and canon law. When in 1400 the plague invaded Siena, he, with ten companions took charge of a hospital at Santa Maria della Scala for four months to take care of the sick. He escaped the plague but was so exhausted that he was confined in bed for some months. In 1403, Bernardine joined the Order of Friars Minor and was ordained a priest the following year. In 1406, St. Vincent Ferrer, a Dominica, left him the task to preach and evangelize Italy. As a preacher, he had a hoarse voice, but he talked directly to his audience. His themes were taken from the ordinary lives of people, taking topics of immediate interest and in the context of the situation of the 15th century. He used a simple, familiar style and drew many to listen to him. For more than 30 years he preached in Italy and was attributed to have played a great part in the revival of the faith of the Italians. He travelled on foot from place to place and at times they had to put a pulpit on market places so that his hearers who were in standing room could see him. His sermons lasted for three hours. He preached against luxury and immodest in dresses, against gambling, usury, blasphemy, witchcraft, infanticide, indecent conversations, sodomy, homosexuality, and other useful topics. He justified the ownership of private property, the ethics of trade, and just wage. Fr. Bernardine was particular about how women should behave and guard their purity. He encouraged women to make Mary, the mother of God, as their model. “Bonfires of Vanities” were held during his sermons where people threw to be burned mirrors, high-heeled shoes, false hairs, dice, chessmen and other frivolities used by women. He enjoined the people to observe the Commandments of God. He, naturally met oppositions. In Aquila, while giving a sermon, someone sawed the legs of his pulpit which caused him to fall into the crowd. But generally, he was a remarkably successful preacher for he influenced the people to change for the better. One of his peculiar sermons was his anti-semitic stance connected with his sermon against usury, which was the practice of many Jews. He called for the Jews to be banished from Italy, because, according to him, they were the cause of the poverty of the Christians. As a result, in some places, the Jews were segregated. This left a resentment on the part of the Jews, Fr. Bernardine shun honor and fame. In 1426, he was offered the bishopric of Siena but declined the offer. In 1431, he declined the bishopric of Ferrara and in 1435, the bishopric of Urbino. Those who opposed him accused him of heresy but he was found innocent. In 1438, he became Vicar General of his Order. He reformed many convents of the Friars Minor and sent many missionaries to Asia. “St. Bernardine, in the name of Jesus, we implore you to cure those who are suffering from respiratory illnesses and ailments of the lungs. Amen.”

Vincent Ferrer was a Valencian Dominican friar and preacher, who gained acclaim as a missionary and a logician. All Saints of God, pray for us!
Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Fifth Week of Lent Lectionary: 252All podcast readings are produced by the USCCB and are from the Catholic Lectionary, based on the New American Bible and approved for use in the United States _______________________________________The Saint of the day is Saint Vincent FerrerThe polarization in the Church today is a mild breeze compared with the tornado that ripped the Church apart during the lifetime of this saint. If any saint is a patron of reconciliation, Vincent Ferrer is. Despite parental opposition, he entered the Dominican Order in his native Spain at 19. After brilliant studies, he was ordained a priest by Cardinal Peter de Luna—who would figure tragically in his life. Of a very ardent nature, Vincent practiced the austerities of his Order with great energy. He was chosen prior of the Dominican house in Valencia shortly after his ordination. The Western schism divided Christianity first between two, then three, popes. Clement VII lived at Avignon in France, Urban VI in Rome. Vincent was convinced the election of Urban was invalid, though Catherine of Siena was just as devoted a supporter of the Roman pope. In the service of Cardinal de Luna, Vincent worked to persuade Spaniards to follow Clement. When Clement died, Cardinal de Luna was elected at Avignon and became Benedict XIII. Vincent worked for him as apostolic penitentiary and Master of the Sacred Palace. But the new pope did not resign as all candidates in the conclave had sworn to do. He remained stubborn, despite being deserted by the French king and nearly all of the cardinals. Vincent became disillusioned and very ill, but finally took up the work of simply “going through the world preaching Christ,” though he felt that any renewal in the Church depended on healing the schism. An eloquent and fiery preacher, he spent the last 20 years of his life spreading the Good News in Spain, France, Switzerland, the Low Countries and Lombardy, stressing the need of repentance and the fear of coming judgment. He became known as the “Angel of the Judgment.” Vincent tried unsuccessfully, in 1408 and 1415, to persuade his former friend to resign. He finally concluded that Benedict was not the true pope. Though very ill, he mounted the pulpit before an assembly over which Benedict himself was presiding, and thundered his denunciation of the man who had ordained him a priest. Benedict fled for his life, abandoned by those who had formerly supported him. Strangely, Vincent had no part in the Council of Constance, which ended the schism. Reflection The split in the Church at the time of Vincent Ferrer should have been fatal—36 long years of having two “heads.” We cannot imagine what condition the Church today would be in if, for that length of time, half the world had followed a succession of popes in Rome, and half an equally “official” number of popes in say, Rio de Janeiro. It is an ongoing miracle that the Church has not long since been shipwrecked on the rocks of pride and ignorance, greed and ambition. Contrary to Lowell's words, “Truth forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne,” we believe that “truth is mighty, and it shall prevail”—but it sometimes takes a long time.

"In the second coming when He will come for rendering repayment, He will not come in humility and poverty, but in such majesty and power that the whole world will tremble." St. Vincent Ferrer (1350-1419) was born in Valencia, Spain, and died in Vannes, Britany. He was a great scholar and theologian, and even served as an advisor to Benedict XIII, the Avignon anti-pope. St. Vincent was also a great preacher, traveling throughout Europe as a parish mission preacher. The favorite topic of his sermons was the final judgment, and he is often called the "Angel of the Judgment." This sermon demonstrates St. Vincent's ability, in typically Dominican style, to render a close analysis of scripture into an accessible sermon capable of drawing out both the literal and moral significance of the sacred text.

Hey, friends! Today we are finding out how a good person - a future Saint - can still make a pretty big mistake for a long time and still turn out good in the end. Our Saint Friend today is that person and he was caught up in one of the biggest arguments in Church history that didn't result in a few hundred new denominations being formed. So let's jump into Church politics with our new friend: Saint Vincent Ferrer.

April 5: Saint Vincent Ferrer, Priestc. 1350–1419Optional Memorial; Liturgical Color: WhitePatron Saint of buildersHe slept on the floor, fasted endlessly, performed miracles, and converted thousandsSaint Dominic de Guzman, a Spanish priest, founded the Order of Preachers in the early thirteenth century. He wanted to establish an Order of priests who were well educated in theology, adept at preaching the truths they lived, and who had more flexibility than a monastery-bound priest to travel and evangelize. Over a century later, today's saint was born in Saint Dominic's own country, joined the Dominican Order, and carried out in the most dynamic and complete way the essential vision of Saint Dominic. Saint Vincent Ferrer was well educated and a powerfully effective preacher. He travelled almost without cease throughout Western Europe, impacting the lives of untold thousands of people through his example of holiness, his supernatural gifts, and his preaching. Saint Vincent was the ideal Dominican.Vincent was born in Valencia, on the southern coast of Spain, to an English father and a Spanish mother. He was named in honor of Saint Vincent Martyr, who met his death in the same city in the fourth century. Vincent received an excellent education and earned a doctorate in theology at a young age. It was said that he read exclusively Scripture for three full years and had committed much of it to memory. He taught philosophy and then took up advanced studies, in Barcelona, of Islam and Judaism. Spain had a sizeable minority of Jews, and Muslims still controlled large portions of Southern Spain in Saint Vincent's day. So these studies were not merely theoretical. Saint Vincent converted a large number of Spanish Jews and interacted with Spanish Muslims on a regular basis.The ecclesial event which most marked our saint's life was the Western Schism of 1378–1418. This painful episode saw two, and eventually three, cardinals claim to be the validly elected pope. This open wound pained the Church for two generations. Some Europeans lived their whole lives knowing only a bitterly divided papacy. The Western Schism proved so intractable a problem, and caused such scandal, that it can be argued that it was the remote spark of the Reformation which caught fire through Northern Europe about one hundred years later. Such were the complexities of the Schism that Saint Vincent found himself on opposite sides of the issue from Saint Catherine of Siena and various other deeply committed Catholics.Our saint spent the better part of his life as a tireless itinerant preacher traveling along the highways and the byways of Spain, France, and Italy, drawing enormous crowds, inviting and inspiring them to a deeper life in Christ. Near the end of his life, Vincent's effective preaching played a decisive role at the Council of Constance in 1414. He convinced the Spanish King to cease supporting the very pope who Vincent had previously backed in the Schism. Vincent was man enough to see that his candidate had become an obstacle to Church unity. Vincent thus lived a hard lesson in humility when his man was abandoned, excommunicated, and judged by history to have been an antipope. Saint Vincent fittingly died on one of his incessant missionary journeys, far from home in Northern France, at the age of sixty-nine. His reputation for holiness was such that he was canonized a saint in 1455, within the lifetime of many who had heard him preach.Saint Vincent Ferrer, you lived a life of fervor and dedication to the truths of the Catholic faith, imparting the education you received to others through your witness and preaching. Come to the aid of all teachers and preachers to emulate your virtues with your same zeal for the house of the Lord.

For so it becometh us to fulfill all justice. Then he suffered him. 16 And Jesus being baptized, forthwith came out of the water: and lo, the heavens were opened to him: and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him. 17 And behold a voice from heaven, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."I ought to be baptized by you," (Mt 3:14), in today's gospel. Holy Mother Church today celebrates this feast of the Baptism of Christ, about which today's gospel speaks, how Christ was baptized by St. John. And our sermon shall be about this. We have a number of good speculative teachings to enlighten the intellect, and moral instructions for the correction of life.

What was the deal with the Star??Read the sermon here https://svfsermons.org/A191_EpiphanySermon.htm"And falling down they adored him," (Mt 2:11) Today's feast is commonly called Epiphany or Appearance, which is the same. Because the Virgin Birth which had been hidden and secret, today was manifest to the nations. So the churchmen say and call this feast Epiphany, from "epi" which is "above" and "phanos" which is "appearance," because the star appeared over the nations.

Here I read the sermon of St. Vincent Ferrer on Christmas Day.Topics addressed:St. Vincent Ferrer paints us a portrait of the nativity of our Lord. From the coming to Jerusalem to the laying in a manger. What does it all mean? Why a manger? How did our Lady feed our Lord? Plus so much more!Read the sermon here https://www.svfsermons.org/A158_Christmas.htm In Nativitate Christi. Sermo unicusSt. Vincent Ferrer: Christmas Sermon (Lk 2:11)"This day, is born to you a Savior," (Lk 2:11). Our sermon will be about the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Virgin Birth. But that you might sense the spiritual sweetness of this feast, we shall salute the glorious Mother of God. [Vincent now leads his listeners in the "Hail Mary."]"There is born to us etc." From the beginning of the world up to the birth of Christ there has never been heard such good news, nor so useful for mankind like the news of the proposed theme, "This day, is born to you a Savior," (Lk 2:11) etc. To all who were lost and damned and sentenced to hell. The declaration of this blessed Nativity I deal with in five conclusions.1. First, that this blessed Nativity was from of old ardently desired by the saints.2. Second, that this blessed Nativity was cruelly unappreciated by the Jews.3. Third, that this blessed Nativity was celebrated powerfully by God.4. Fourth, that this blessed Nativity was humbly hidden by the Virgin Mary.5. Fifth, that this blessed Nativity was broadcast publicly by the angels saying, "This day, is born to you a Savior," (Lk 2:11). And anyone who, curiously, might wish to preach all five conclusions, would be excessively prolix. And all are touched in the theme, in which there are five conditions. The first, therefore, is touched by the first saying. The second in the second. The third in the third, and so on for the others.https://www.svfsermons.org/A158_Christmas.htmContact Me:Email: FonsecaProduction@gmail.comWebsite: http://catholicconversations.buzzsprout.comIG: @ffonzeFacebook: Adrian Fonseca Facebook: Catholic Conversations Twitter: @AdrianFonzeYouTube: Catholic ConversationsYouTube: Adrian Fonseca

Dr. Heath Carter, historian of American religious history at Princeton Theological Seminary, discusses the legacy of Dominican women advocating for economic justice in the early 20th century. Focusing on Dominican Sister Vincent Ferrer, a Sinsinawa Dominican Sister, Dr. Carter will talk about her efforts in the early 20th century in advocating Catholic social teaching, applied to the economic challenges of the period. Leveraging the Dominican tradition of study, Sr. Vincent Ferrer led a national speaking campaign to advocate for social justice in economic policy. This episode examines the connections between our current economic challenges and the role of religious communities in leading the discussion for economic change. This talk highlights a chapter in the McGreal Center's new sponsored book, Preaching with their Lives: Dominicans on Mission in the United States After 1850, and is a part of a 2021 speaker series sponsored by the McGreal Center and the St Catherine of Siena Center at Dominican University, to highlight recent research in Dominican history, featured in our newly released book.

O great preacher who taught so well the love of God and the precepts of the Church, who worked with such zeal to repair the breach within the Church in a time of corruption – pray that now the Word may again go forth to the ends of the earth, that all might hear the voice of the Spirit speaking in their hearts and turn resolutely from their sins to the grace of the Lord; and pray, too, there will be priests to preach God's Word with that same loving zeal you had for the Church and every soul.

The Dominicans have just celebrated the 150-year jubilee of their ministry on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Fr. John Maria Devaney, O.P., host of the Order's Word to Life program on Sirius XM, takes me through the history of the Dominicans in NYC (which involves quite a bit of history of the city itself). From Rose Hawthorne to Andy Warhol, it is a fascinating and grace-filled legacy. Links Word to Life, Fr.

Pope Benedict Emeritus tells us that we have lost the sacramental idea. In our contemporary world, we see all reality in terms of function and practicality. We have reduced all things to matter and matter to material that is to be used. We do not see all of reality open to eternity. No wonder then that regular attendance at Mass and participation in all the sacraments has declined. We perceive them as empty rituals that do not fulfill our desires for immediate gratification. It is as Jesus says through the Prophet Isaiah: “Gross is the heart of this people, they will hardly hear with their ears, they have closed their eyes, lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and be converted, and I heal them” (Mt 13:15). How do we rediscover the sacramental idea? How do we renew the great gift of the liturgy? How do we bring people back to the Church? Pope Benedict Emeritus speaks to this great challenge. Perhaps he has some wisdom for us. Fr. Colin Wen was born and raised in Palo Alto, CA. He received his BA in Sociology at UC Davis in 2005 before spending a year in Los Angeles volunteering on skidrow. From there he discerned a calling to the priesthood, joining the Diocese of Sacramento and entering St. Patrick's Seminary in 2006, where he spent his first two years of pre-theology. In 2008, he was sent to Rome to complete his theological studies, receiving an STB as well as an STL in Moral Theology at the Angelicum. He was ordained in 2013 and has served in Grass Valley, Nevada City, Downieville, and Dixon. On July 1st, 2014, Bishop Soto appointed him as Parochial Vicar at St. Vincent Ferrer in Vallejo. And on July 1st, 2017 he was appointed as Parochial Administrator of St. Katharine Drexel in Amador County.
This episode is titled, Dominic and continues our look on monastic life.In our last episode, we considered Francis of Assisi and the monastic order that followed him, the Franciscans. In this installment, we take a look at the other great order that developed at that time; the Dominicans.Dominic was born in the region of Castile, Spain in 1170. He excelled as a student at an early age. A priest by the age of 25, he was invited by his bishop to accompany him on a visit to Southern France where he ran into a group of supposed-heretics known as the Cathars. Dominic threw himself into a Church-sanctioned suppression of the Cathars through a preaching tour of the region.Dominic was an effective debater of Cathar theology. He persuaded many who'd leaned toward their sect to instead walk away. These converts became zealous in the resistance against them. For this, the Bishop of Toulouse gave Dominic 1/6th of the diocesan tithes to continue his work. Another wealthy supporter gave Dominic a house in Toulouse so he could live and work at the center of controversy.We'll come back to the Cathars in a future episode.Dominic visited Rome during the 4th Lateran Council, the subject of another future episode. He was encouraged by Pope Innocent III in his apologetic work but was refused in his request to start a new monastic order. The Pope suggested he instead join one of the existing orders. Since a Pope's suggestion is really a command, Dominic chose the Augustinians. He donned their black monk's habit and built a convent at Toulouse.He returned to Rome a year later, staying for about a half year. The new Pope Honorius II granted his petition to start a new order. Originally called the “Order of Preaching Brothers,” it was the first religious community dedicated to preaching. The order grew rapidly in the 13th C, gaining 15,000 members in 557 houses by the end of the century.When he returned to France, Dominic began sending monks to start colonies. The order quickly took root in Paris, Bologna, and Rome. Dominic returned to Spain where in 1218 he established separate communities for women and men.From France, the Dominicans launched into Germany. They quickly established themselves in Cologne, Worms, Strasbourg, Basel, and other cities. In 1221, the order was introduced in England, and at once settled in Oxford. The Blackfriars Bridge, London, carries in its name the memory of their priory there.Dominic died at Bologna in August, 1221. His tomb is decorated by the artwork of Nicholas of Pisa and Michaelangelo. Compared to the speedy recognition of Francis as a saint only two years after his death, Dominic's took thirteen years; still a quick canonization.Dominic lacked the warm, passionate concern for the poor and needy that marked his contemporary Francis. But if Francis was devoted to Lady Poverty, Dominic was pledged to Sir Truth. If Francis and Dominic were part of a cruise ship's crew; Francis would be the activities director, Dominic the lawyer.An old story illustrates the contrast between them. Interrupted in his studies by the chirping of a sparrow, Dominic caught and plucked it. Francis, on the other hand, is revered for his tender compassion and care for all things. To this day he's represented in art with a bird perched on his shoulder.Dominic was resolute in purpose, zealous in propagating Orthodoxy, and devoted to the Church and its hierarchy. His influence continues through the organization he created.At the time of Dominic's death, the preaching monks, or “friars” as they were called, had sixty monasteries and convents scattered across Europe. A few years later, they'd pressed to Jerusalem and deep into the North. Because the Dominicans were the Vatican's preaching authority, they received numerous privileges to carry out their mission any and everywhere.Mendicancy, that is begging as a means of support, was made the rule of the order in 1220. The example of Francis was followed, and the order as well as the individual monks renounced all right to personal property. However, this mendicancy was never emphasized among the Dominicans as it was among Franciscans. The obligation of corporate poverty was revoked in 1477. Dominic's last exhortation to his followers was that they should love, service humbly, and live in poverty but to be frank, those precepts were never really taken much to heart by most of his followers.Unlike Francis, Dominic didn't require manual labor from the members of the order. He substituted study and preaching for labor. The Dominicans were the first monastics to adopt rules for studying. When Dominic founded his monastery in Paris, and sent seventeen of his order to staff it, he told them to “study and preach.” A theological course of four years in philosophy and theology was required before a license was granted to preach, and three years more of theological study followed.Preaching and the saving of souls were defined as the chief aim of the order. No one was permitted to preach outside the cloister until he was 25. And they were not to receive money or other gifts for preaching, except food. Vincent Ferrer and Savonarola were the most renowned of the Dominican preachers of the Middle Ages. The mission of the Dominicans was mostly to the upper classes. They were the patrician order among the monastics.Dominic would likely have been just one more nameless priest among thousands of the Middle Ages had it not been for that fateful trip to Southern France where he encountered the Cathars. He'd surely heard of them back in Spain but it was their popularity in France that provoked him. He saw and heard nothing among the heretics that he knew some good, solid teaching and preaching couldn't correct. He was the right man, at the right time doing the right thing; at first. But his success at answering the errors of the Cathars gained him support that pressed him to step up his opposition toward error. That opposition would turn sinister and into what is arguably one of the dark spots on Church history – the Inquisition. Though hundreds of years have passed, the word still causes many to shiver in terror.Dante said of Dominic he was, “Good to his friends, but dreadful to his enemies.”We'll take a closer look at the Inquisition in a later episode. For now àIn 1232, the conduct of the Inquisition was committed to the care of the Dominicans. Northern France, Spain, and Germany fell to their lot. The stern Torquemada was a Dominican, and the atrocious measures which he employed to spy out and punish ecclesiastical dissent an indelible blot on them.The order's device or emblem as appointed by the Pope was a dog with a lighted torch in its mouth. The dog represented the call to watch, the torch to illuminate the world. A painting in their convent in Florence represents the place the order came to occupy as hunters of heretics. It portrays dogs dressed in Dominican colors, chasing away heretic-foxes. All the while the pope and emperor, enthroned and surrounded by counselors, look on with satisfaction.As we end this episode, I thought it wise to make a quick review of the Mendicant monastic orders we've been looking at.First, the Mendicant orders differed from previous monastics in that they were committed, not just to individual but corporate poverty. The mendicant houses drew no income from rents or property. They depended on charity.Second, the friars didn't stay sequestered in monastic communes. Their task was to be out and about in the world preaching the Gospel. Because all of European society was deemed Christian, the mendicants took the entire world as their parish. Their cloister wasn't the halls of a convent; it was the public marketplace.Third, the rise of the universities at this time presented both the Franciscans and Dominicans with new opportunities to get the Gospel message out by educating Europe's future generations.Fourth, the mendicants promoted a renewal of piety by the Tertiary or third-level orders they set up, which allowed lay people an opportunity to attend a kind of monk-camp.Fifth, The mendicants were directly answerable to the Pope rather than local bishops or intermediaries who often used orders to their own political and economic ends.Sixth, the friars composed an order and organization more than a specific house as the previous orders had done. Before the mendicants, monks and nuns joined a convent or monastery. Their identity was wrapped up in that specific cloister. The Mendicants joined an order that was spread over dozens of such houses. Monks' obedience was now not to the local abbot or abbess, but to the order's leader.Besides the Dominicans and Franciscans, other mendicant orders were the Carmelites, who began as hermits in the Holy Land in the 12th C; the Hermits of St. Augustine, and the Servites, who'd begun under the Augustinian rule in the 13th C, but became mendicants in the 15th.
