Santa Filomena Novena APPLICATION description

On December 21, 1833, the Holy Office declared that there was nothing contrary to the Catholic faith in the revelations that Sister Maria Luisa di Gesù (1799 - 1875), a Dominican tertiary from Naples, claimed to have received from the Saint herself.[6]

According to Sister Maria Luisa di Gesù, Saint Philomena told her she was the daughter of a king in Greece who, with his wife, had converted to Christianity. At the age of about 13, she took a vow of consecrated virginity. When the Emperor Diocletian threatened to make war on her father, her father went with his family to Rome to ask for peace. The Emperor "fell in love" with the young St. Philomena and, when she refused to be his wife, subjected her to a series of torments: scourging, from whose effects two angels cured her; drowning with an anchor attached to her (two angels cut the rope and raised her to the river bank); being shot with arrows, (on the first occasion her wounds were healed; on the second, the arrows turned aside; and on the third, they returned and killed six of the archers, after which, several of the others became Christians). Finally the Emperor had her decapitated. The story goes that the decapitation occurred on a Friday at three in the afternoon, as with the death of Jesus. The two anchors, three arrows, the palm and the ivy leaf on the tiles found in the tomb were interpreted as symbols of her martyrdom.[6]

In the Neapolitan nun's account, Saint Philomena also revealed that her birthday was January 10,[6] that her martyrdom occurred on August 10 (the date also of the arrival of her relics in Mugnano del Cardinale),[4] and that her name "Filumena" meant "daughter of light". (It is usually taken to be derived from a Greek word meaning "beloved".)[4]

Publication of this account gave rise to critical study both of the account itself and of the archaeological finds, leading to uncertainty that the tomb was in fact that of a martyr.[6] On December 21, 1833, the Holy Office there was nothing Declared That Contrary to the Catholic faith in the revelations Sister Maria Luisa That di Gesù (1799-1875), a Dominican tertiary from Naples, Claimed to Have received from the Saint herself.
