To the staff

Dear Brothers,

Again, as you may have noticed, I am not as often on Facebook as usual, as I am very busy with administrative tasks. I am working to establish a partnership with a church corporation in Africa. From email letters to email responses, they require a lot of information and request even more.

Last Sunday, I participated in a virtual global online celebration of the Jubilee with the Roman Catholic Church, during the month I was working with the Africa Network BFTF. Worked on the profile at the National Association of Ministers. I have a multitude of invitations that I couldn’t attend because there are so many.

Additionally, on the website’s auxiliary pages, I added the “[Belief of New Life Catholic Ministry](https://franciscanseucharist.ca/belief-of-new-life…/)” page and the Tithe “[https://franciscanseucharist.ca/tithe](https://franciscanseucharist.ca/tithe)” page, which should be of interest to everyone.

Additionally, I worked on our Structure (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/…), where the organogram I created not long ago didn’t match what we have on file. So I redo it correctly and adequately. You will notice that it has names that say ‘not official.’ That is because I didn’t receive the documents that Monsignor Celestin requested a few weeks ago. I need those documents to proceed with our organization and partnership with a third party. Please be obliged to send all documents to our Superintendent Bishop Celestin, who will send a copy to me.

OCTOBER 7

The Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, formerly known as the Feast of Our Lady of Victory and the Feast of the Holy Rosary, is celebrated on 7 October in the General Roman Calendar. 7 October is the anniversary of the decisive victory of the combined fleet of the Holy League of 1571 over the Ottoman navy at the Battle of Lepanto.

In the Western Rite Vicariate of the Antiochian Orthodox Church, the feast is optionally celebrated on 7 October, under the title The Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Notre-Dame du Rosaire est, dans la tradition catholique, un titre donné à la Vierge Marie associé à la prière du rosaire. Ce titre serait issu d’une apparition mariale survenue au XIIIe siècle, à Prouilhe, dans le sud de la France, au cours de laquelle la Vierge serait apparue à Dominique de Guzmán, fondateur de l’Ordre dominicain.
L’Ordre dominicain fut l’un des principaux propagateurs de cette dévotion mariale sous ce vocable, notamment par la promotion du rosaire, objet de cette dévotion. D’autres figures telles que Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort et Alphonse de Liguori contribuèrent également à la diffusion de cette dévotion.

La fête liturgique de Notre-Dame du Rosaire est célébrée le 7 octobre dans l’Église catholique, en souvenir de la victoire de la bataille de Lépante, attribuée à l’intercession de la Vierge Marie invoquée par la prière du rosaire.

Stella Maris

Our Lady, Star of the Sea, is an ancient title for Mary, the mother of Jesus. The words Star of the Sea are a translation of the Latin title Stella Maris.

The title has been in use since at least the early medieval period. Purportedly arising from a scribal error in a supposed etymology of the name Mary, it came to be seen as allegorical of Mary’s role as “guiding star” on the way to Christ. Under this name, the Virgin Mary is believed to intercede as a guide and protector of seafarers in particular. Many coastal churches are named Stella Maris or Star of the Sea.

A guiding star for seafarers has led to devotion to Our Lady, Star of the Sea, in many Catholic coastal and fishing communities. Numerous churches, schools and colleges are dedicated to “Stella Maris, Our Lady Star of the Sea”, or “Mary, Star of the Sea”.

Stella Maris Monastery, the foundation house of the Carmelite order, was established on Mount Carmel in Haifa in the early thirteenth century. The abbey was destroyed several times, but a refounded Stella Maris monastery is still considered the headquarters of the order.

Devotions to this title of Mary are found in the popular Catholic hymn, Hail Queen of Heaven, the Ocean Star and the ancient prayer Ave Maris Stella. The widely sung “Sicilian Mariners’ Hymn”, O Sanctissima, also reflects this devotion, as do Tamil hymns.

Our Lady, Star of the Sea, is the patroness of the Netherlands, as well as the American state of Hawaii. The Roman Catholic Church commemorates Our Lady, Star of the Sea, on 27 September.
