Did Monks Invent Paulaner Beer? | A Catholic Brewing Fun Fact | Interesting Story about Paulaner Yes — one of the world’s most famous beers was truly brewed by monks. The Paulaner Brewery was founded in 1634 by monks of the Order of Minims at a monastery in Munich. The brewery is named after their founder, Saint Francis of Paola, whose image still appears on the Paulaner logo today. During the strict fasting of Lent, solid food was forbidden. To survive the 40 days, the monks brewed a strong, nutrient-rich beer known as Doppelbock, famously called “liquid bread.” Their original brew was named Salvator — Latin for Saviour — and inspired the tradition of ending many doppelbock beers with the suffix “-ator.” The first official record of Paulaner comes from a complaint letter written by rival brewers in 1634, upset by the monastery’s successful beer sales! Though no longer owned by the Church, Paulaner remains one of the elite Munich Six breweries permitted to serve beer at Oktoberfest …More
Hl. Franz von Paola Der Paulanerorden(Ordo Minimorum – Mindeste Brüder, Minimiten, Paulaner, OrdenskürzelOM oder OMinim) wurde von dem heiligenFranz von Paola gegründet. Die Ordensgemeinschaft besteht aus Ordenspriestern und Ordensbrüdern. Die Paulaner sind nicht zu verwechseln mit den Paulinern oder den Barnabiten, die man mit Bezug auf den Apostel Paulus auch als Paulaner bezeichnet. Die Ordensgemeinschaft der Paulaner entwickelte sich um den eremitisch lebenden Franz von Paola (1416–1507), der viele Gleichgesinnte fand, die mit ihm im italienischen Cosenza ein Kloster gründeten. Franz von Paola war aufgrund eines Versprechens seiner Eltern als Jugendlicher in ein Franziskanerkloster gegeben worden, trat dem Orden aber nicht bei. Er ließ sich später bei einer Grotte in der Nähe seines Heimatortes Paola als Einsiedler nieder, wo sich ihm erste Brüder anschlossen. Die Mitglieder dieser Gemeinschaft nannten sich selbst „die mindersten Brüder“ als Superlativ der …More
O most loving Jesus, Who by Thy surpassing virtues and the example of Thy home life didst hallow the household in which Thou didst choose to live while on earth, mercifully look down upon this family, whose members, humbly prostrate before Thee, implore Thy protection. Remember that we are Thine, bound and consecrated to Thee by a special devotion. Protect us in Thy mercy, deliver us from danger, help us in our necessities, and impart to us strength to persevere always in the imitation of Thy Holy Family, so that, by serving Thee and loving Thee faithfully during this mortal life, we may at length give Thee eternal praise in heaven. O Mary, dearest Mother, we implore thy assistance, knowing that thy divine Son will hearken to thy petition. And do thou, most glorious patriarch, St. Joseph, help us with thy powerful patronage, and place our petitions in Mary's hands, that she may offer them to Jesus Christ. Amen.
An account of my discovery of and subsequent journey with the headcovering/veil in the post Vatican II Church.. by Maria delos Angeles ------------------- I have been going up to women . I felt an inner calling to do so., in churches in the Westminster diocese and said to them, quite naturally - nothing forced , nothing condescending.., "from one woman to another .." Entre nous., I believe you are missing some blessing here .. There was a look coming from a deep place in the psyche of all of those woman with whom I spoke - unveiled in Church, unveiled before the Blessed Sacrament , which when I spoke them about this important subject.. , it seems to me that what I was conveying to them bypassed the critical faculties - as if it was going to the depths of the mystery of her womanhood into the very depths of her soul . That she acknowledged the truth of what I was saying to her - I believe because of where I was coming from with it.. Initially some women reacted at bit with some pride .…More

Das Theodosioskloster Der christlichen Überlieferung zufolge befindet sich das Kloster des Heiligen Theodosius, auch bekannt als Deir Dosi oder Deir Ibn Obeid, an dem Ort, an dem die Heiligen Drei Könige auf ihrem Rückweg vom Besuch des Jesuskindes in Bethlehem Rast machten. Der Legende nach erschien Gott den Weisen und riet ihnen, auf ihrer Rückreise einen anderen Weg zu nehmen und Herodes zu meiden, der sie aufgefordert hatte, zu ihm zurückzukehren, um den genauen Geburtsort Jesu preiszugeben. Tatsächlich ist die Höhle, in der die Heiligen Drei Könige rasteten, heute einer der Hauptbereiche des Klosters. Das Kloster wurde 476 von Theodosius dem Cenobiarchen gegründet und erlebte seine Blütezeit zwischen dem 5. und 7. Jahrhundert, als es bis zu vier Kirchen und etwa 700 Mönche und Nonnen sowie weitere 2.500 Anhänger beherbergte, die in der Umgebung lebten.

True.I recall when my sister-in-law said she finally felt accepted as part of our big ethnic family when my father had an argument with her. Prior to that he was always coolly polite to her since he wasn't sure yet what to think of her as a wife for his son.
