Saint Philip Neri

Saint Philippe Nelly was born in Florence, Italy in 1515. He is the eldest son of Francis Neri and Lucretia Soldi, both of which are descendants of the family of Tuscany. He was very kind when he was a child, but soon he was called Philip Goodness - "Good Pipo". When he was a child, he studied philosophy, then learned a comprehensive course of theology. Together with 14 colleagues, we made the most sacred trinity Confraternity to take care of pilgrims and rehabilitators. Members conducted communion, prayers and other spiritual activities at the San Salvador Church, and Philip himself also proposed the Eucharist rhetoric thought at least once a month.

I sincerely welcome the Italian-speaking followers. I especially honor the congregation of St. Philip's Cathedral, the fifth anniversary of discovery, which is known as "the wise man of joy." According to his example, you can witness the pleasure of the gospel. I pay tribute to the staff of Medlar Menu Group of Jesus and its industry community, which was rebuilt after the 2012 earthquake. I welcome Bolsena's faithful followers, "Livio Tempestaperla Bontànela Scuola" and Don Bosco Moriano Institute. Together with the bishop Nazzareno Marconi, I represent respect for the "fire of peace" to young athletes in the pilgrimage to Macerata-Loretto. For all, I hope that a visit to the eternal city will encourage people to swear to provide peace and solidarity to the most distressed people.

Think about family: Poverty: "As a mother, a church can never look at children's pain."

In 1846, Ruiji joined St. Philip Nelli Cathedral, a congregation specializing in charity and learning, and on November 9, 1856, he was elected Dean of the Community. On 4th October 1854, he completed the task of a girls rescuer abandoned. On March 7, 1857, he opened the school and the girls' home for the hearing impaired; unfortunately, it could survive only 15 years. He opened a Providence Building for former students who were out of work and worked with the most serious and poorest patients in the hospital. In his later years, Luigi had to fight against the anti-civilians who swept the Italian peninsula during the political unity of the country; many houses and groups, including the chapel, were confiscated, closed, That asset was sold. I could not save the property of the cathedral and the parish, but Luigi protected the charity and saw the growth and spread of the congregation.

With further advance of his priesthood career, Father Luigi entered the congregation of a singer 's father founded by St. Philip at the age of 42. He continued to lead Providence's sisters and devoted his life to social justice and the poor, including patients and the elderly. Through the deep ties with God, Father Luigi also has the ability to read mind. The atmosphere of anti-cultivation of Italy's unification in the middle of the 19th century constrained the sister's "orphanage" and the father's congregation. But Father Luigi succeeded in saving his orphaned work by him and his sister. At the end of 1883, he became sick and forced to quit his job. He died on April 3, 1884.
