I’ve gathered together some bits and pieces that I have written over the years on Saint Paul of the Cross and, with the help of weebly.com, I have created a little site for those who want to read something about him and his spirituality. The site is called Passio in Cordibus, recalling the words of Saint Paul of the Cross May the Passion of Jesus Christ be always in our hearts. It’s very unfinished, but I hope I will get some technical support and helpful improvements from my guardian angel over the next few months. In the meantime, I wanted to make these texts available as near the Feast of Saint Paul of the Cross as possible. The picture used on the site is a detail of the above picture of Saint Gabriel, which in turn is a detail from a large painting in the Passionist church at Brugnato, Italy. You can see the full painting on the Passionist Vocations site.
Wonderful!
Great to see you blogging again Fr. Paul.
And even better to see your wonderful new site!
I’m sure it will prove to be a most useful resource during the novitiate the next year!
My guardian angel says you should make a library of your talks available on site, have been listening to them recently and think they would be a welcome addition for anyone interested in the congregation!?
Hope you had a happy feast day and that the upcoming 40 hrs is blessed with many graces!
Hope to see you soon and pray this finds you in good mind, body and spirit.
God bless,
frank trias.
Dear Father Paul,
thanks so much… I might pilfer you [quoting you obviously !]. I think the more we get the message “out there” in cyberspace, the better it is.
thanks so much for this new site.
your little bro in JXP

p.s. You know, I have not seen you since 1992…Way too long. You need to come to the Caribbean and visit us !
I like the new “little site.” Your talks have great depth in them. Keep it up. I have had the feeling for many years, the Passionists in the Anglo-Hibernian Province might have peaked, long before our life times. You give hope and guidance that I might be wrong. I hope so!
Father Paul-Francis,
Hope you are fine. Did you see the link I put on my Blog re: Saint Paul de la Croix? I think Father Plet is doing a good job. He studied with Father Samuel. Knowing that your French is better than my English, I think you’ll enjoy the site if you don’t already know about it. Take care. Always in JXP,
Michael
How lovely is that painting above! It is stopping a man, it is starting a man to think and it is reminding a man about that what happened a long time ago.
Dear Fr. Paul,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I have recently enrolled myself in the Confraternity of the Passion (I’m a married lay Catholic) and I’m happy to be learning more and more about the Passionist Congregation. I’ve added your blog, as well as your excellent Passio in Cordibus site, to my growing list of Passionist sites and media, and I would be honored if you might link out to my blog:

Thank you and God bless!
In the hearts of Jesus and Mary,
