Solemnity of All Saints


Feast of All Saints

Profile

Instituted to honour all the saints, known and unknown. It owes its origin in the Western Church to the dedication of the Roman Pantheon in honuor of the Blessed Virgin Mary and all the martyrs by Pope Saint Boniface IV in 609, the anniversary of which was celebrated at Rome on 13 May. Pope Saint Gregory III consecrated a chapel in the Vatican basilica in honor of All Saints, designating 1 November as their feast. Pope Gregory IV extended its observance to the whole Church. It has a vigil and octave, and is a holy day of obligation; the eve is popularly celebrated as Hallowe'en.

Blessed Rupert Mayer

Also known as

• The Apostle of Munich
• The Limping Priest (a result of his war injury)

Additional Memorials

• 3 November (Diocese of Munich-Freising, Germany)
• 5 November (Diocese of Eichstätt, Germany)

Profile

Rupert grew up in a family with five children and received his basic education in Stuttgart, Germany. Feeling a call to the priesthood, he studied philosophy and theology in Freiburg, Switzerland, then in Munich and Tübingen in Germany. Ordained a priest in 1899. Assistant pastor in Spaichingen, Germany. Joined the Jesuits in Feldkirch, Vorarlberg, Austria in 1900. From 1906 to 1912, he travelled around Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands, preaching parish missions. In 1912 he was assigned to Munich where he worked with migrants who had come to the city looking for work.

Father Rupert volunteered as an army chaplain in World War I. He worked for a while in a camp hospital, but was promoted to captain and sent to the front lines in France, Poland and Romania to minister to soldiers in the trenches. He lived with the soldiers, and was accepted by them. During combat he would crawl unarmed and under fire from man to man, encouraging them, praying with them, administering the Sacraments to them. In December 1915 he was awarded the Iron Cross for bravery, the first chaplain to receive the honour. In December 1916 he was injured on the Romanian front by an exploding grenade, and lost his left leg.

Back in Munich after the War, Father Rupert returned to preaching, teaching, youth ministry and leading retreats for priests. He was there during the short-lived, communist-inspired “Bavarian Republic” of 1918 to 1919. Leader of the Marian Congregation in Munich in 1921. Beginning in 1923 he publicly announced that Nazism was incompatible with Christianity, and no Catholic could be a member of the party. This led to several arrests by the Gestapo including a six month stretch in “protective custody” beginning on 16 May 1937 after which he was sent for seven months to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp. In 1939, with his health failing and fearing his death would make him a martyr and a rallying point for anti-Nazi Catholics, he was released from the camp on condition that he stay in the Benedictine Abbey of Ettal and not preach. He was finally freed by Allied forces in 1945 and returned to Munich to spend his last few months back in his old ministry.

Blessed Teodor Jurij Romzha

Profile

Greek Catholic. Studied philosophy from 1930 to 1933. Studied theology in Rome from 1933 to 1937; received a Licentiate. Ordained on 25 December 1936.

Drafted into the military, he served on the border with Germany; discharged in 1938. Minister to the impoverished parish of Berezovo, Maramorosh District. Professor of philosophy and spiritual director at the seminary in Uzhorod in 1939. Monsignor in 1942. Consecrated bishop of the Mukachiv eparchy on 24 September 1944.

His eparchy was annexed into Soviet Ukraine on 29 June 1945. Teodor fought to preserve the rights of his Church during the occupation. The atheist government ordered the bishop and all the faithful to renounce any connection with Rome, and to submit to the Patriarch of Moscow. Romza refused, and the open persecutions by the State began. The government annouced that Nestor Sydoruk was the bishop of the eparchy, and faithful Greek Catholic priests and lay people were intimidated, harassed, abused, and imprisoned. Romza travelled his diocese by horse and buggy, ministering to his flock. Severely wounded on 27 October 1947 in a Bolshevik assassination attempt that involved ramming his cart with a motor vehicle, then beating him with rifle butts; he was later murdered in his hospital bed. His work helped many Transcarpathian Christians return from the Orthodox Church to the Greek Catholic. Martyr.
