“'I will be with you always, even to the end of the world.' (Matthew 28,20) Through the Mass where the bread and wine are changed into the body and blood of the Lord..." "The Church lives by the Eucharist, Ecclesia de Eucharistia" - Preface to Pope St. John Paul II's Encyclical The monks of the Benedictine Monastery of St. Olivetano follow the liturgy and The Holy Sacrifice of the Daily Mass in Gregorian chants “Human language cannot express all the graces that flow from the Sacrifice of the Mass. The sinner and God are reconciled, and the righteous become more righteous. Man's sins are washed away, evil is rooted out, Virtue and merit are spread, and the devil's schemes are destroyed.” - St. Lawrence Justinian Lawrence Justinian- I would like to say Mass The tradition of saying Mass for oneself or for others, especially those who have passed away, It is a very old custom of the church that started from the early church. The Mass offerings consecrated in this way become part of the good and missionary work of the Church.

St Bernardo Tolomei 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 베네딕도회 몬떼 올리베또의 성모마리아 연합회 창설자 (1272 ~1348 이탈리아, 시에나) St. Bernardo Tolomei The founder of St. Benedictine of Olivetano is St. Bernardo Tolomei. Born in 1272 to a noble family in Siena, Italy, the saint was originally John. Johann Tolomei was a law enforcement officer and emperor's knight who studied law like any other aristocratic son at that time. But suddenly, he is in danger of losing his sight, and he personally pledges to devote his life to the healing of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Upon being healed by God's grace, he decided to live the life of thorough retribution and prayer he had hoped for, and began a silver life in 1313 with his colleagues Ambrosio Piccolomini and Patricio Patrici. I was 41 years old at that time. "All the teachings of adults It is an echo that speaks of the value of humility, By every means possible Teaches humility and leads us to humility I convince you to come back." St. Bernardo Tolomei, Letter 1 "More than any heroic virtue Humble your own sins It 's better to admit it." St. Bernardo Tolomei, Letter 1 복자 암브로시오 삐콜로미니 이탈리아 시에나 ( ? ~1338) Blessed Ambrosio Picolomini 성 베르나르도 똘로메이의 동료이자 수도회 창설자 3인중 한명으로서 1313년부터 똘로메이 성인과 함께 이탈리아 토스카나지방의 시에나 인근의 아꼬나라는 광야에서 은수 생활을 같이 시작하였다. 복자 암브로시오는 13세기에 세력을 떨쳤던 회사 '삐꼴로미니 가문 출신이며, 그의 가문에서 비오2세와 비오3세의 두 교황이 배출되었다., 그는 몬떼 올리베또 수도원의 제2대 아빠스 직을 수행하였고, 주님을 섬기고 공동체 형제들의 영적 유익을 위해 헌신하였다. 사료에 따르면 그가 임종하기 전에 "선하고 믿음직한 종이여, 네 주님의 기쁨 안으로 들어가라" 라는 말씀을 들었다고 전해진다. 그는 두 동료들보다 먼저 하느님께 돌아갔으며(+1338년) 수도원 성당안에 묻혔다. 복자 빠뜨리시오 빠뜨리찌오 이탈리아 시에나 ( ? ~1347) Blessed Patrizio Patrizi 빠뜨리찌오의 아버지는 시에나 공국의 최고위직에 있었다. 빠뜨리찌오는 인생의 대전환이 있기 전에 몇 년간 사업을 하기도 했다. 그러나 세속적인 삶은 그에게 지루하고 의미가 없었다. 시에나 명문 귀족 가문의 지혜로운 품행으로 존경을 받았던 그는 베르나르도 똘로메이, 암브로시오 삐꼴로미니와 함께 평신도 신심단체의 일원이 되어 하느님안에서 우정을 쌓아갔다. 결국 그는 물질적 탐욕과 인간적인 허영을 버리기로 결심하고 곧바로 그것을 실행하였다. 그가 몬떼 올리베또 수도원의 초대 아빠스(1319-1320)직을 수행할 때 공동체가 제 모양을 갖추기 시작하였고, 수도자들은 두려움 없이 누구나 순종의 길에 열려 있었다. 베네딕도 규칙 아래, 그들은 영적으로 성장해가며 일치를 이루었고 외적으로는 수련자들의 수가 많이 늘어났다. 그리고 이 때 수도원과 성당을 새로 짓기 시작해서 그의 아빠스 임기가 끝나기 전에 성당이 마무리 되었다. 1347년, 빠뜨리찌오는 페스트가 이탈리아 전역을 휩쓸기 직전에 세상을 떠나 성당안에 묻혔다. 베네딕도회 몬떼올리베또의 성 마리아 연합회 창설자 3인 ( 왼쪽부터 복자 빠뜨리찌오 빠뜨리찌, 성 베르나르도 똘로메이, 복자 암브로시오 피콜로미니- 몬떼올리베또 대수도원 소장 ) 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 사후의 연합회 발전상 몬떼 올리베또의 성마리아 연합회는 창설자의 사후 형제들의 절반인 80명이 세상을 떠난 큰 시련을 겪었음에도 불구하고 창설자의 사랑의 희생에 힘입어 발전을 거듭했고, 세상과 교회로부터 대단한 존경을 받았다. 베르나르도 똘로메이 성인(1348년 귀천)의 사후 몬떼 올리베또의 성 마리아 연합회는 14세기에 223개 수도원에 303명, 15세기에는 53개 수도원에 914명, 16세기에는 76개 수도원에 1044명, 17세기에는 82개 수도원에 940명, 18세기에는 83개 수도원에 855명의 수도승이 한 몸으로 친교의 삶을 살았다. 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 일 소도마, 1505, 몬떼 올리베또 소장 2009년 시성식 바티칸 성 베드로 성당 대광장 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 이콘 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 성인께서 은수하셨던 동굴 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 페스트 환자를 돕는 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 폼페오 바토니, 1745 베르나르도에게 성 베네딕도 발현하심 파브리지오 카롤라리 작, 1773, 몬떼 올리베또 소장 십자가 아래의 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 몬떼 올리베또 내 십자가 경당 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 상 몬떼 올리베또 소장 성 베르나르도 똘로메이 동상 시에나 크리스토포로 성당 소재 아꼬나 광야 베르나르도 똘로메이 성인께서 암브로시오, 빠뜨리찌오 동료들과 함께 은수생활을 시작하셨던 시에나에서 35km떨어진 아꼬나라는 황무지 몬떼 올리베또 대수도원 몬떼올리베또의 성마리아 연합회 모원 수도원인 몬떼올리베또 대수도원 (이탈리아, 시에나)
