Seven Founders of the Order of Servites
Feast date: Feb 17
These seven men were born in Florence, Italy and led lives as hermits on Monte Senario. They had a special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
On Friday, April 13, 1240, the hermits received a vision of Our Lady. She held in her hand a black habit, and a nearby angel bore a scroll reading “Servants of Mary.”
Mary told them:
“You will found a new order, and you will be my witnesses throughout the world. This is your name: Servants of Mary. This is your rule: that of Saint Augustine. And here is your distinctive sign: the black scapular, in memory of my sufferings.
They accepted the wisdom of Our Lady, wrote a Rule based on Saint Augustine and the Dominican Constitutions, adopted the black habit of an Augustinian monk, and lived as mendicant friars. The men founded the Order of Servites which in 1304 received the approval of the Holy See.
They are venerated on Feb. 17 because it is said to be the day on which Saint Alexis Falconieri, one of the seven, died in 1310.
All seven were beatified December 1, 1717 by Pope Clement XI and canonized in 1887 by Pope Leo XIII.

February 12 -The Seven Holy founders of the Servites, confessors. It does not appear more than an insignificant detail to have displaced this feast by five days, but in reality, it is significant. It is countless insignificant changes which end changing the face of an institution such as the Church. We had Antipope Francis dinning with male prostitutes who had metamorphosed as pseudo-women and now we have a requiem service been offered to a ‘Madre de Putas’ in St. Patrick’s Cathedral. We had Archbishop Georges Niederauer of San Francisco distributing the eucharist to trannies Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence in a church of the Castro District, all under the pretense of a devious charity. The Roman Catholic Church has been metamorphosed into an institution lauding depravation, and alas leading to the loss of a multitude of souls. In the end it is quietism and indifference towards details which brings us to the inexorable double death.
This typing hand may tell that years ago, a ceratin militant denounced details, such as blasphemous avant-guard bronzes -all permanently installed upon designation & approval by a Rome’s commission of the sacred artworks, but all this lone militant got was a criminal silence from our fathers. I denounce again those ‘avant-guard’ bronzes within the Nervi built Cathedral of the Assumption located on Cathedral Hill:

~One represents the Visitation. “Mary” is bare-foot and pregnant, while St. Elizabeth stands next to Zachary. The presence of a matrimonial bed projects an adultery through bigamy. A horrible blasphemy insinuating that Holy Mary got pregnant in a sinful way, and that Jesus and the Baptist were half-brothers, as taught by the pagans & unbelievers.
~One other bronze shows a sacrilegious crucifixion which shows that “Jesus Christ” crucified was impaled -as does the sado-masochists in their depraved entertainment parties in sex-clubs. I stop at that, in order to avoid a graphic description of what has become the Blood Sacrifice on the Cross. The clergy remained indifferent to those sick representations of the most important scenes of the Redemption. Those were mere ‘details’.
Did I make it clear enough to the CNA’s staff, that ‘details’ matter? and that the small permutation of dates from within the calendar of the saints ends having a significance? CNA is complicit to the disruptions caused by Mammon.
END.
