   Peter-Adrian Toulorge - A Premonstratensian with Backbone (72 pages)




Greeting

„The heroes of the Church can assist us in our lives. They were no ‘photocopied Christians’; rather, each one was original, irreplaceable and without parallel! The Church of today does not need part time Catholics. She needs full-blooded Christians!” (John Paul II, June 21, 1998, at the Beatification of James Kern).

Spurred on by this ideal, the web page that you just opened is for the sake of informing and uniting, on a worldwide scale, the Norbertine confreres, sisters, friends of the Order, and all those who honor our Saints, Blesseds and Servants of God. An important step toward the “rediscovery” of the saints of our Order was the Hagiologion published by my zealous predecessor, Fr. Donatian De Clerck (German 1999, Dutch 2001, Czech 2003, French 2005 and English still in preparation). As a further step in this direction, I would like to offer inspiration for the spiritual life and the celebration of the Liturgy.

Finally, I sincerely request your prayers for our Order and its processes of beatification and canonization!


Gratefully yours in our Holy Father Norbert
Fr. Dr. Gabriel Wolf OPraem
General Postulator
