Saint Paul the First Hermit Venerated in Eastern and Western traditions, the founder of the eremitical life, Saint Paul withdrew into the desert and lived there in the exercise of prayer and penance, according to tradition, until his death in 343 at the age of one hundred and thirteen.
The Akathist Hymns are liturgical hymns in use among the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches. Among Roman Catholics the Akathist Hymns are virtually unknown. The purpose of this website is to present several Akathists in a manner familiar to Roman Catholics in the form of a litany. Hopefully, this will open the door for Roman Catholics to discover the rich beauty contained in the prayers of the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic traditions.
Have you ever wondered about the Vows religious profess? In this website you will learn exactly what it is religious promise in their profession formula. It may surprise you to know that the Dominicans mention only obedience in the text of their vows and that members of the Benedictine family do not use the words poverty or chastity in their profession formulas. Yet each text reflects the particular charism of the individual religious institution in a concise, concrete manner.
