Saint Laurent de Rome - 10 août Diacre et martyr à Rome (+ 258) - (Vatican News, 10 août 2021) les pauvres sont "les trésors de l'Église", selon la “Depositio martyrum”, le diacre de l'Église de Rome a été martyrisé sur la Via Tiburtina pendant les persécutions de l’Empereur Valérien, le 10 août 258. La "passio" de St Laurent, rédigée au moins un siècle après sa mort, n'est pas crédible. Le récit prétend que Laurent, diacre du pape saint Sixte II, fut mis à mort trois jours après le martyre de ce dernier et qu'il fut brûlé à petit feu sur un gril, ce qu'on ne souhaite à personne. La plupart des auteurs modernes estiment qu'il fut décapité, comme Sixte. Quoiqu'on pense de la valeur des "acta", il n'en reste pas moins que Laurent a toujours été vénéré, en Orient comme en Occident, comme le plus célèbre des nombreux martyrs romains (voir la liste chronologique, autour des années 258-259...). Les écrits des saints Ambroise, Léon le Grand, Augustin et Prudence témoignent de ce culte(*)…More
Saint du Jour 10 août - St Laurent ecclesiatv Diacre et Martyr († 258) Laurent fut l'un des plus illustres martyrs de l'Église. Ses vertus, son mérite, lui gagnèrent l'affection du Pape Sixte II, qui le choisit comme son premier diacre. L'an 258, le Pape fut arrêté et condamné à mort. Comme on le conduisait au supplice, Laurent, son diacre, le suivait en pleurant : « Où allez-vous, mon père, disait-il, sans votre fils ? Où allez-vous, saint Pontife, sans votre diacre ? Jamais vous n'offriez le sacrifice sans que je vous servisse à l'autel. En quoi ai-je eu le malheur de vous déplaire ? » Le saint Pape, ému, lui dit : « Je ne vous abandonne point, mon fils ; une épreuve plus pénible et une victoire plus glorieuse vous sont réservées ; vous me suivrez dans trois jours. » Puis il lui ordonna de distribuer aux pauvres tous les trésors de l'Église, pour les soustraire aux persécuteurs : mission que Laurent accomplit avec joie. Le préfet de Rome, à cette nouvelle, fit venir Laurent et lui …More

DMSO—a simple compound vets use for spinal injuries the FDA won’t approve. But that’s not the only “incurable” neurological disorder DMSO helps. Approximately 2000 studies support DMSO's use for conditions ranging from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's to strokes, MS, ALS, chronic pain, neuropathy, depression, epilepsy, and Down syndrome, and a physician who began treating his patients with it estimates roughly 80% of what people see neurologists for goes away with DMSO.

SAINT LAWRENCE - August 10 Deacon and Martyr (†258) Feast St. Lawrence was one of the Roman Church's seven deacons. He was ordained Archdeacon by Pope Sixtus II in 257. One year later, he witnessed Pope Sixtus being led to martyrdom. When St. Lawrence was summoned by Rome's prefect and ordered to cede the Church's wealth, he promised to deliver riches exceeding all expectations. At the end of 3 days, he brought the Church's poor and crippled to the prefect and said, "Here are the treasures of the church. You see, the church is truly rich, far richer than your emperor!" The prefect was so enraged that he ordered St. Lawrence to be roasted on a gridiron. St. Lawrence had previously distributed the Church's wealth after Emperor Valerian's edict to execute all religious and confiscate their wealth. St. Lawrence was burned over a slow fire. When his skin was charred, he told the torturers, "Turn me over; I'm done on this side." At length Christ, the Father of the Poor, received him into Heaven …More

– Folha de S. Paulo, July 9, 1984 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira IN A world wide report by the Ansa News Agency also published by several Roman dailies, “comrade” Alessandro Natta, the new Secretary General of the Italian Communist Party affirmed, in an interview requested by Vatican Radio, that he did not see the Catholic Faith as an “obstacle,” but on the contrary, a “possible point of support” for the “perspectives” that, in his judgment, the Italian Communist Party (PCI) and the Catholic Church have in common. These perspectives are: “the liberation of man and the peoples, the affirmation of the values of peace and morality in their highest sense” (Il Messaggero, Rome, 6-30-84). On that occasion, the interviewer appointed by Vatican Radio asked Natta if “something new will arise in the relations between the PCI and the Catholic world.” The answer of the Italian politician was evasive, but not devoid of significance: “It would be timely and just to follow the inspiration that began …More

Stay With Jesus Through Every Storm The apostles, struggling against a storm on the Sea of Galilee, mistake Jesus walking on water for a ghost. Jesus reassures them, revealing his divine identity with “I am,” the same name God gave to Moses. This story, along with Peter’s brief walk on water, emphasizes the importance of keeping our focus on Jesus during life’s storms, as he will always be there to guide and support us. The story of Elijah at Mount Sinai highlights the importance of staying focused on God amidst chaos and fear. Despite Elijah’s past successes, he succumbed to fear and ran away, but God still found him and spoke to him in a whisper. The key to navigating life’s storms is to remain rooted in prayer, keep our focus on the Lord, and trust in His presence, even when He seems distant. Peace and safety are assured.Fr.
