5 SAINT EUSEBIUS of VERCELI (c ) Patroñ Saiñt of Verceli Feast Day 2 August St. Eusebius is the first to link the monastic life with that of the clergy, establishing a community of his diocesan clergy on the principle that the best way to sanctify his people was to have them see a clergy formed in solid virtue and living in community. He was sent by Pope Liberius to persuade the emperor to call a council to settle Catholic-Arian troubles. When it was called at Milan, Eusebius went reluctantly, sensing that the Arian block would have its way, although the Catholics were more numerous. He refused to go along with the condemnation of St. Athanasius; instead, he laid the Nicene Creed on the table and insisted that all sign it before taking up any other matter. The emperor put pressure on him, but Eusebius insisted on Athanasius innocence and reminded the emperor that secular force should not be used to influence Church decisions. At first the emperor threatened to kill him, but later sent him into exile in Palestine. There the Arians dragged him through the streets and shut him up in a little room, releasing him only after his four-day hunger strike. They resumed their harassment shortly after. His exile continued in Asia Minor and Egypt, until the new emperor permitted him to be welcomed back to his See in Vercelli. He attended the Council of Alexandria with Athanasius and approved the leniency shown to bishops who had wavered. ENROLL TODAY! The Cathedral of Immaculate Heart of Mary is now offering an Electronic Offering Program. This is an EASY and CONVENIENT way to make your offerings to the church.

Call for more information or visit our website at From Pope Francis in the encyclical Laudato Si (2015) paragraph 64 / presented by Social Justice Ministry of CIHM The bishops of Brazil have pointed out that nature as a whole not only manifests God but is also a locus of his presence. The Spirit of life dwells in every living creature and calls us to enter into relationship with him. Discovering this presence leads us to cultivate the ecological virtues. De parte del Papa Francisco en la encíclica Laudato Si (2015) del párrafo 6/presentada por el Ministerio de Justicia Social de IHMC. Los obispos de Brasil han señalado que la naturaleza en su conjunto, no sólo manifiesta a Dios, sino también es un lugar de su presencia. El Espíritu de vida habita en todo ser viviente y nos llama a entrar en relación con él. El descubrimiento de esta presencia nos lleva a cultivar las virtudes "ecológicos". Reflecting on God s Word You can t take it with you, Aunt Frances used to say. I never saw a hearse pulling a U-Haul. Aunt Frances had a point. We expend a lot of effort making money for our families, planning for retirement, and managing our investments. Yet we have no control over when our lives will be demanded of us. And wealth may not be the only treasure that we store up. We have many ways to preserve a false sense of security, to mask the vulnerability that we humans share. We may install security systems, move into gated communities, or buy a gun. We may buy SUVs with antilock brakes. We may store up good deeds that allow us to feel smug and self-satisfied, or grudges that put others in our debt. The scriptures today remind us that whatever we might be banking on to keep us safe is mere vanity. Virginia Stillwell Copyright 2012, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.
