If you truly want to help the soul of your neighbor, you should approach God first with all your heart. Ask Him simply to fill you with charity, the greatest of all virtues; with it you can accomplish what you desire.

Saint Vincent Ferrer 1357-1419 Feast day: April 5 Patronage: builders, reconciliation, aid in storms, orphanages

Saint Vincent Ferrer was a Spanish Dominican during the Great Schism of the Church. He was a brilliant theologian and preacher, who preached throughout Europe. Because of his fiery sermons, with accompanied miracles, he is called the “Angel of Judgement” and “Flaming torch of chastity”. This is why he is depicted with wings and a flame over his head. He “built up” and strengthened the church thru missionary work, in his teaching as confessor and adviser. St. Vincent lived to see the end of the Great Schism.

PRAYER TO ST. VINCENT FERRER (RACCOLTA 522)

O glorious apostle, and wonder-worker Saint Vincent Ferrer, new Angel of the Apocalypse and our loving patron, receive our humble prayer, and send down upon us a plentiful shower of divine favors. By the fire of love in thy heart, obtain for us from the Father of mercies the pardon and remission of all our sins, steadfastness in faith, and perseverance in good works, that so we may live as good and fervent Christians and become worthy of thy powerful patronage. Extend thy protection to our bodies also, and deliver us from sickness. Keep our fields from hurtful tempests and storms of hail, and banish all misfortunes far from us. Blessed by thy favors both in body and soul, we shall ever be thy devoted clients, and one day we shall come to heaven to join with thee in praising God through all eternity. Amen.

[ghostsandgod]

No, I do not believe that there ever existed in the world so much pomp and vanity, so much impurity, as at the present day; to find in the world's history an epoch so criminal, we must go back to the days of Noe and the universal deluge. The inns in the cities and villages are filled with persons of abandoned character; they are so numerous that the entire world is infected by them. Avarice and usury increase under the disguised name of contracts. Simony reigns among the clergy, envy among the religious. Gluttony prevails to such an extent in every rank of social life that the fasts of Lent, the vigils and Ember-days, are no longer observed.

In a word, vice is held in such great honour that those who prefer the service of God to that of the world are held up to scorn as useless and unworthy members of society.

-St Vincent Ferrer...in the 14/15th century

SAINT OF THE DAY (April 5)

Roman Catholics celebrate the missionary efforts of St. Vincent Ferrer on April 5.

The Dominican preacher brought thousands of Europeans into the Catholic Church during a period of political and spiritual crisis in Western Europe.

Vincent Ferrer was born on 23 January 1350 in Valencia, Spain. His parents raised him to care deeply about his religious duties, without neglecting his education or concern for the poor.

One of his siblings, Boniface, later joined the Carthusian order and became its superior general.

Vincent, however, would become a Dominican and preach the Gospel throughout Europe. He joined at the age of 18 in 1374.

As a member of the Dominican Order of Preachers, Vincent committed much of the Bible to memory while also studying the Church Fathers and philosophy.

By age 28, he was renowned for his preaching and also known to have a gift of prophecy.

Five years later, a representative of Pope Clement VII chose Vincent to accompany him to France, where he preached extensively.

While Vincent sought to live out his order's commitment to the preaching of the Gospel, he could not escape becoming involved in the political intrigues of the day.

Two rival claimants to the papacy emerged during the late 1300s, one in Rome and another in the French city of Avignon.

Each claimed the allegiance of roughly half of Western Europe.

Caught between the rival claimants, Vincent attempted to persuade the Avignon Pope Benedict XIII to negotiate an end to the schism.

Benedict, who was regarded as Pope in both Spain and France, sought to honor Vincent by consecrating him as a bishop.

But the Dominican friar had no interest in advancing within the Church. He regarded many bishops of his time as negligent leaders distracted by luxury.

“I blush and tremble,” he wrote in a letter, “when I consider the terrible judgment impending on ecclesiastical superiors who live at their ease in rich palaces, while so many souls redeemed by the blood of Christ are perishing.

I pray without ceasing, to the Lord of the harvest, that he send good workmen into his harvest.”

Vincent not only prayed but acted, committing himself to missionary work and resolving to preach in every town between Avignon and his hometown in Spain.

In a commanding style, he denounced greed, blasphemy, sexual immorality, and popular disregard for the truths of faith.

His sermons often drew crowds of thousands and prompted dramatic conversions.

Popular acclaim, however, did not distract him from a life of asceticism and poverty.

He abstained completely from meat, slept on a straw mat, consumed only bread and water on Wednesdays and Fridays, and accepted no donations for himself beyond what he needed to survive.

He traveled with five other Dominican friars at all times, and the men would spend hours hearing confessions.

For two decades, Vincent and his group of friars undertook preaching missions in Spain, Italy, and France.

When he traveled outside these regions, into Germany and other parts of the Mediterranean, those who did not know the languages in which he preached would testify that they had understood every word he said, in the same manner as the apostles experienced at Pentecost.

Although he did not heal the temporary divisions within the Church, Vincent succeeded in strengthening large numbers of Europeans in their Catholic faith.

He wrote little, although some of his works have survived, and exist in modern English translations.

Vincent Ferrer died on 5 April 1419 at the age of 62 in Vannes, Brittany.

He was canonized by Pope Callixtus III on 3 June 1455.

He has recently become the namesake of a traditional Catholic community approved by the Holy See, the Fraternity of Saint Vincent Ferrer.

He is considered the patron saint of builders due to his effectiveness in building up the Church.

SUBWAY BOSSES' ENGLISH NAME ANALYSIS

warning: I will mention something related to Catholicism here

These past days, I've been curious where does Ingo's name came from. I know Pokemon likes to do wordplays when it comes to naming characters so I decided to make a mini-research

INGO

Ingo's name comes from the term "ingoing"

I thought about it further then I realized it might came from the name "Domingo"

In the Philippines, Filipino Catholics love to give nicknames to their patron saints, like Tatang Usteng for St. Augustine and Tatang Enteng for St. Vincent Ferrer. I have a devotion to St. Dominic de Guzman and I dearly call him Tatang Inggo ("Tatang" means "father")

Yes, Inggo is a popular nickname for St. Dominic, just like Isko/Kiko for St. Francis

Back to name analysis, "Ingo" might derive from "Domingo." "Dominic" and "Domingo" come from "Dominicus," meaning "belonging to God"

EMMET

Emmet's name (probably) comes from the term "emit" (to throw or give off, to send out)

"Emmet" has many possible origins. First, "Emmet" can be a male variation of the name "Emma," which comes from the Germanic word "ermen," meaning "whole" or "universal"

"Emmet" can also come from the Hebrew word "אמת" (emét) meaning "truth" or from the old Persian word "امید" (omid) meaning "hope" or "aspiration"

There you go, a breakdown in Subway Bosses' names!

Recap:

"Ingo" might come from "Domingo," meaning "belonging to God" and "Emmet" means "whole," "universal," "truth," hope" or "aspiration"

Hope you like my mini-research! (finally done with my overthinking)
