Born in Florence, Italy, in 1515. He went to Rome to study and supported himself at the university by tutoring young students. He spent his free time praying in the churches and in catacombs. While praying, Philip suddenly knew what God wanted him to do with his life.
He began to work among the poor and the sick of Rome. His work led him to the decision to become a priest. After ordination in 1551, he talked about his ministry whenever he met someone new and urged people to join him. He then founded the Oratory, a community of men who gathered together under Philip’s leadership to pray, sing, and discuss their faith. He stressed the importance of joy in the life of a disciple of Christ.
Some people call Philip the “saint maker” because so many men who later became saints came to Philip seeking advice and direction for living their faith. (some are, St. Ignatius of Loyola, St. Francis de Sales, St. Charles Borremeo, and St. Francis Xavier, even popes and bishops) came to the Oratory to seek Philip’s advice.
He always kept his sense of humor. He was able to achieve and build so many relationships because his ministry was characterized by joy and humility.
His message was, “Don’t take yourself too seriously.”
Philip died in 1595, when he was an old man, leaving the Church a lasting legacy.His life teaches us to be optimistic and hopeful that God has given us Good News in Jesus and that we are called to share that Good News with love and joy.

Caterina de’ Pazzi was born on 1566, the only daughter from a prominent family . She was drawn to the Holy Eucharist from a young age, and she resolved to serve God as a consecrated virgin shortly after receiving her First Communion at age 10.
In 1582 she entered a strictly traditional Carmelite monastery. Receiving her religious habit, she took the name of Mary Magdalene.
From March to May of 1584, Mary became seriously ill and was thought to be in danger of death. On May 27, she made her religious vows while lying sick upon a pallet. Her recovery marked the start of an extended mystical experience, which lasted 40 days and involved extraordinary experiences.
Mary served the monastery in a series of teaching and supervisory positions, and manual work. Her fellow Carmelites respected her strict sense of discipline, which was accompanied by profound charity and practical wisdom. Her experiences of suffering and temptation helped her to guide and inspire others.
Extraordinary spiritual occurrences were a frequent. Her mystical experiences were written in five "original manuscripts", notes which were written by her nuns recording all that she did or said during her ecstasies and her "overflowings of divine love". These notes were later revised by the saint herself. They are entitled: Forty Days, Conversations, Revelations and Understandings, Trials and Renewal of the Church, together with her Sayings and Letters.
Her continuous physical sufferings and severe spiritual trials were a great burden but she was enriched by God with extraordinary graces. Her earthly life came to an end on May 25, 1607, after an excruciating illness lasting nearly three years.
The extraordinary was ordinary for Saint Mary Magdalene. She read the thoughts of others and predicted future events. During her lifetime, she appeared to several persons in distant places, she bi-located and was the intercessor of many miracles, cured a number of sick people, she was a Stigmatist, Mystic, Ecstatic.

After Jesus had ascended to heaven from Mt. Olivet, the apostles and disciples returned to the Holy City. They remained together in the Upper Room or Cenacle, the place where Jesus had appeared to them and which may well be called the first Christian church. About a hundred and twenty persons were assembled there. They chose Matthias as an apostle in place of the unhappy Judas; they prayed and waited for the Paraclete.
Ten days had passed, the seventh Sunday after the resurrection. At about nine o'clock in the morning, as they were together praying fervently, the Holy Spirit descended upon them.
There came a mighty roar, like the onrush of a violent wind. It came suddenly, from heaven, a second visible sign consisted in tongues of fire that descended upon each of them and the apostles and disciples were enabled to speak various languages.
After the roar of the wind many of Jerusalem's pilgrims hurried to the Cenacle. Pentecost was one of the three festivals which obliged all Jews to be present in Jerusalem. Jews from distant lands, and Jewish converts from paganism too, attended these feasts. As a result, a colorful crowd speaking a variety of languages surrounded the house. Now the apostles, who so shortly before had hid in fear behind locked doors, came forth and courageously walked among the multitude speaking to each in his native tongue.
This was the fulfillment of Joel's prophecy: In those days (of the Messiah), God will pour forth His Spirit upon men and they will prophesy. . . . Then the apostle pointed his words more directly against the accusers: they had killed Jesus, had nailed Him to the Cross; but God had awakened Him and after His departure to heaven, He sent the Holy Spirit.
The pilgrims who had heard Peter give this first pentecostal sermon "were pierced to the heart and said: Brethren, what shall we do? Peter said to them: Repent and be baptized; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." Three thousand responded.
As individuals we have a gift of tongues which all men can understand. It is the gift of love infused into us by the Holy Spirit. Love unites, love is a common language, by means of love we can speak to all nations.

Gifts of holy spirit

Prayer for the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit

O Lord Jesus Christ Who, before ascending into heaven did promise to send the Holy Spirit to finish Your work in the souls of Your Apostles and Disciples, deign to grant the same Holy Spirit to me that He may perfect in my soul, the work of Your grace and Your love.
Grant me the Spirit of Wisdom that I may despise the perishable things of this world and aspire only after the things that are eternal,
the Spirit of Understanding to enlighten my mind with the light of Your divine truth,
the Spirit of Counsel that I may ever choose the surest way of pleasing God and gaining heaven,
the Spirit of Fortitude that I may bear my cross with You and that I may overcome with courage all the obstacles that oppose my salvation, the Spirit of Knowledge that I may know God and know myself and grow perfect in the science of the Saints,
the Spirit of Piety that I may find the service of God sweet and amiable, and the Spirit of Fear that I may be filled with a loving reverence towards God and may dread in any way to displease Him.
Mark me, dear Lord, with the sign of Your true disciples and animate me in all things with Your Spirit.�Amen.

Giovanni Battista de Rossi born in Voltaggio,Genoa, of four children. His parents, of modest means, were devout and well esteemed.
A nobleman and his wife vacationing in Voltaggio, was impressed with the 10 year old John Baptist, obtained permission from his parents to take him to live with them and be trained in their house in Genoa.
After 3 years, his cousin invited him to join him to enter the Roman Jesuit College. Despite episodes of epilepsy, brought on by excessive zeal in imposing harsh penances upon himself, he was granted a dispensation and was ordained at 23.
From his student days he loved visiting hospitals. As a priest there was much more he could offer suffering souls. He particularly loved the Hospice of St. Galla, a night shelter for paupers. There he labored for 40 years.
He also worked at the hospital and extended his assistance. He had great pity for homeless women and girls and from the little that he made in Mass stipends, and the 400 scudi sent to him by the Pope, he rented a refuge for them.
John Baptist was also selected by the Pope to deliver courses of instruction to prison officials and other state servants. Among his penitents was the public hangman.
In 1731 he became assistant priest at St. Maria in Cosmedin. He was a great confessor to whom penitents flocked, and as a preacher, he was also in demand for missions and retreats.
He inherited the canonry, but applied the money attached to the post to buy an organ, and hire an organist. As to the house, he gave it to the chapter and went to live in the attic.
In 1763, his health began to fail, and he was obliged to take up residence in the hospital of Trinita dei Pellegrini. He expired after a couple of strokes on 1764 at 66 years of age. He died so poor that the hospital prepared to pay for his burial. But the Church took over and he was given a triumphant funeral with numerous clergy and religious, and the Papal choir, in attendance.
He became known as the Apostle of the Abandoned.
