Download or read book Mother Ignacia del EspAritu Santo and the Religious of the Virgin Mary and Their Roles in the 500 Years of Philippine Evangelization written by Ignacio Russel Estoconing-Pecore and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's been four hundred years in the making, but the story of Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo and her daughters, the Religious of the Virgin Mary, is finally about to be told. These wonderful sisters' contributions have long been over- looked. Not only were they the first, oldest, and the largest Filipino female religious order in the Philippines, but the sheer amount of work that they have done for both Catholics and the community deserves to be recognized. Yet, for some reason, the Religious of the Virgin Mary has long remained unnoticed and passed over when it comes to Catholic religious orders. Despite their dedication in the fields of education, health care, social ministry, retreats, evangelization, and more, these sisters have been tragically hidden in the shadows by the church. Thus, the purpose of this book is to thank the sisters for their contributions, both in the Philippines and worldwide, and to recognize their work. I think it's time the public knows what they have done, the care they've taken of the poor and sick, the dedication to the call of duty by their country, the transformation they've been able to make in the lives of those who might not have had any other access to education, the missions that they have taken on in the name of Christ, the trailblazing they have done for other women religious, as well as the laity in access to spiritual formation, direction, and guidance. That is what this book aims to do, to bring this good work to light. Of course I cannot talk about the Religious of the Virgin Mary without spending a considerable amount of time on their foundress, the legendary Venerable Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo. It is from her own courage, spirit, and determination that the sisters find their guide today and the vivacity they seek to emulate. This book, thus, also examines the life of this incredible woman, what encouraged her to begin this order despite the numerous boundaries that stood in her way, as well as some of the ideals she held and how they relate to today's society centuries later--the equality of all, the importance of femininity in the church, and even pro-life issues.

This book was released on 2024-06-07 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some stories stand out in the annals of history as a beacon of hope amid darkness. One such incredible story is that of the Venerable Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo of the Philippines - a young Filipina who was overlooked by the church as a candidate for service but went on to shape the faith and social justice of a country divided by racism, slavery, and poverty. Holy Mother Ignacia's story is truly a remarkable one, as it is characterized by her unwavering faith and her commitment to the Four Pillars that she based her life around: To Know God, To Love God, To Serve God, and To Be with God Forever.Despite the insurmountable challenges she faced, Holy Mother Ignacia lived with courageous faith and became a model of a sacrosanct life. Her vision was realized through the founding of the Congregation of the Religious of the Virgin Mary (RVM), which continues to thrive to this day, and her legacy continues to inspire and guide countless individuals around the world. Her exemplary and heroic life serves as a beacon of hope for all who seek to live a life of purpose and meaning. This book brilliantly weaves together rich history, theology, and life principles to provide readers with a "mini-retreat" - a chance to reflect on what it means to hear God's guiding voice in our lives today. It is a testament to the power of faith and the enduring impact that individuals can have on the world around them.

Download or read book A History of Christianity in Asia Vol II written by Samuel Hugh Moffett and published by Orbis Books. This book was released on 2014-07-30 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Christianity in the West has often been told, but the history of Christianity in the East is not as well known. The seed was the same: the good news of Jesus Christ for the whole world, which Christians call "the gospel." But it was sown by different sowers; it was planted in different soil; it grew with a different flavor; and it was gathered by different reapers. It is too often forgotten that the faith moved east across Asia as early as it moved west into Europe. Western church history tends to follow Paul to Philippi and to Rome and on across Europe to the conversion of Constantine and the barbarians. With some outstanding exceptions, only intermittently has the West looked beyond Constantinople as its center. It was a Christianity that has for centuries remained unashamedly Asian. A History of Christianity in Asia makes available immense amounts of research on religious pluralism of Asia and how Christianity spread long before the modern missionary movement went forth in the shelter of Western military might. Invaluable for historians of Asia and scholars of mission, it is stimulating for all readers interested in Christian history. --

This book was released on 2001 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Detecting numerous occasions when Joseph is invoked for protection from plague, foreign invasion, and threat to the Church, the author emphasizes the contemporary currency - in both theology and art - of the Maria-Ecclesia typology and concomitant conceptualization of St. Joseph as heroic protector of Mary and the Church. Here challenged are the long-held view of the saint's unimportance prior to the Counter Reformation and old assumption that pre-Tridentine images were often intended to demean him."--BOOK JACKET.
