Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Autobiography of the Blessed Mother Anne of Saint Bartholomew, Inseparable Companion of Saint Teresa, and Foundress of the Carmels of Pontoise, Tours and Antwerp On the Reading of the Decree of Approval of Two Miracles, Wrought by God Through the Intercession of the Venerable Servant of God, Sister Anne of St. Bartholomew, Professed Nun of the Discalced Carmelites, Sunday, February 25th, 1917. "From our heart we join in the happiness which the Carmelite Order feels at the solemn approval of two miracles wrought by God through the intercession of the Venerable Anne of St. Bartholomew, and we are moved to do so by reasons both personal to ourselves and inherent in our dignity. "We will not stay to call to mind the ties which in our earliest years and in our loved native place united us to illustrious members of the Teresian Order: the more than ordinary esteem which we hold for that Order would be enough, even by itself, to make us share in the joy just expressed in the name of all the members of the deserving Order by its worthy head. But how can we help saying how, while we can never at any time forget, today the memory comes back to us, bringing us keener pleasure, of a visit we paid to the convent at Alba di Tormes at the time when our stay in Spain was drawing to its close? Fresh with us today as if it had taken place yesterday, though indeed it is thirty years ago, is the recollection of the tender emotion we felt before the precious relic of the transverberated heart of St. Teresa. Ah, those thorns which so suddenly appeared in a most unhappy hour for the Church bear indeed the message that the spirit of the great Reformer of Carmel is ever a-wing amid the Christian people and thus shares their joys as well as their sorrows. But we think that around that precious relic, together with the thorns - symbol of the never-ceasing sorrows of the Church - little flowers should grow, too, today, to witness the pleasure of St. Teresa in seeing her faithful companion, Sister Anne of St. Bartholomew, so soon to receive the cult of Blessed. And shall not the daughters of St. Teresa, who, to kindle our interest in their Order, have so often reminded us of our visit to the sepulcher of their Blessed Mother, join us and all the children of the Reform of Carmel in thanking the Lord for having used our littleness to hasten the honor of the Blessed for their Sister? Fresh Increase in the Order "But, far more than for personal reasons, our share in today´s happiness of the Reformed Order of the Blessed Virgin of Mount Carmel is grounded on reasons intimately connected with the high dignity with which, without merit of our own, we are clothed.
