St. Philip Benezi
Illustrious Promoter of the Servite Order

Heavenly Father,
through Saint Philip,
you cared for the first Servants of Mary
increase their number
and give them a rule of life
grant that we, like Philip,
In faithful service to the Blessed Virgin
may zailously proclaim your kingdom.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ,
your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever.
Amen.

St. Philip Benizi,
Pray for us.

9th Day

The most critical test endured by Philip Benizi as a Prior General was adoubtedly that of the threat to the Servites' survival posed by the Second Council of Lyons in 1274. Forbidding the foundation of new religious orders, and absolutely suppressing all mendicant institution not yet approve by the Holy See. Philip quickly took action by summoning to Monte Senario the priors and other delegates of the Order to seek their counsel and to formulate a response to this threat of extinction. Philip also took legal and deplomatic action on the Order's behalf by seeking the advice of lawyers in the Roman Curia regarding the Servites position in Canon Law in the light of the Council.
In many respects, the lack of the definitive legislation and its ambiguous position in the Canon Law saved the Servite Order from suppression. Final approval of the Order was granted by pope Benedict XI in the Bull Dum Levamus of February 11, 1304. This happy conclusion to the years of uncertainty and struggles stands as a tribute to the prudent care with which he directed the Order's affairs.

8th Day

Philip has traditionally receive veneration as a peacemaker amidst the volatile political struggles in 13th century Italy. And none more so than those in which his native city was engaged. In 1272 Pope Nicholas III granted special powers to Cardinal Latino for the pacification of certain warring cities. The cardinal is said to have sought Philip's assistance, sending him to Florence and Pistoia. In 1282-83 Philip is also said to have acted as Pope Martin IV's representative at Forli. Nevertheless, another symbol associated with Philip, and often present in artistic representation of the saint, is the lily a sign of the peacemaker.

Several holy men and women in yhe Servite History testify to the part played by Philip in drawing vocations to the Order.

Bl. Joachim of Siena was received into the Order ny Philip in 1271-72.
Bl. Bonaventure of Pistoia a Ghibelline leader converted in 1276 from a life of warfare and violence.
Bl. Andrew of Borgo inspired by Philip turned from soldiering , sought admission to the Order.
Bl. Ubaldo of Borgo a Ghibelline supporter was also converted in 1278 and became a close friend of Philip.
St. Peregrine Laziosi (1265- 1345) a Ghibelline stronghold and Philip's attacker was converted and later received into the Order.
St. Juliana Falconieri foundress of the Third Order Mantellate sisters, was place under Philip's care by her uncle St. Alexis in 1284.

7th Day

In 1267-68, Philip made a visitation of the Order's house in northern Italy. In the Church of Blessed Mary in Arezzo, Philip begged the Virgin Mother to provide for the friar servants who were starving, as all crops had been destroyed by warring in the countryside. Suddenly, a knock on the church door revealed baskets of bread that helped revive the starving friars. This tradition gave rise to the custom of the blessing and distribution of St. Philip'sBread on his feast day, a custom still honoured by the Order

6th Day

Montaccianico was the seat of the powerful cardinal Ottaviano degli Ubaldini (1240-44) Bishop of Bologna. In the death of Pope Clement IV in 1268 a group of cardinals including Ubaldini, declared Philip a worthy successor to the papal throne. Cardinal Ottobono Latino, Protector of the Servites, is then said to have proposed Philip as a candidate for the Papacy at the Conclave of Viterbo (1268-71), having heard of his miraculous works-including the incident at Gagliano. Upon hearing the proposal Philip hid in a cave on Monte Amiata, near Seina. For three months he existed on vegetables alone, and through his prayers a thermal spring appeared that he might quench his thirst. Artistic representation of St. Philip Benizi commonly depict the papal tiara resting at his feet.

5th Day

St. Philip Benizi has always been honoured as a profoundly humble friar and a man of great simpilcity. One of the several examples of his humility related by the earliest account of his life recalls Philip's encounter with a l***r in the village of Gagliano whilst he was travelling towards Bologna on a visitation of the Order's house. Philip gave his tunic to the l***r, where upon the man was cured. As in the Gospel story of Jesus and the l***r, the man ran after his healer to thank him, but Philip exhorted him to give glory to God and to tell no one about the miracle. However, the man entered the nearby citadel of Montaccianico and spoke of his healing.

4th Day

For nearly four years Philip lived as a laybrother, until such time as God chose to reveal his wisdom and learning. In 1258 he was sent on a visit to Seina. On the journey Philip and his companion meet two Dominican Friars who were on their way home from Germany. unfamiliar with the black habit of the Servites the Dominicans were curious as to whence Philip and Victor came, and to which religious order they belonged. In reply Philip uttered his famous declaration: " If your question is about our place of origin, we are the sons of this land. But if you wish to know our status, we are called Servants of the glorious Virgin, the habbit of whose widowhood we wear. We lead the life instituted by the holy Apostles, and follow the rule of the saintly doctor Augustine."

At length, having returned to Florence, Philips's eloquence is said to have been reported to his brethren and the young lay brother was duly sent for clerical studies. He was ordained shortly thereafter. On 5 June 1267 the Servite General Chapter, then assembled in Florence, elected Philip Benizi successor to fra Manettus as Prior General of the Order. The fifth friar to hold this office, Philip was not yet thirty-four years of age.

3rd Day

Upon entering the Abbey church of Fiesole, Philip heard the following words spoken to him by the figure of Christ in the crucifix: " Go to the high hill where the Servants of my Mother are living and you will be doing the will of my Father." Philip received a vision in which he saw himself in a desolate place, on a hazardous and deserted road. His cries for help were eventually answered by the appearance of the Blessed Virgin, who was borne upon a four-wheeled chariot fashioned in gold and drawn by a lion and a lamb, with a dove hovering above. On the following night the virgin appeared to him in a dream. She bade him seek out her Servants.

Philip sought counsel from fra Bonfilius, Prior at Caffagio and also one of the Seven Founders. Accordingly on 18 April 1254, Philip, having joined them at the table, was admitted by the friars at Cafaggio into the Servite Order as a lay brother.

St. Philip Benizi was born on August 15,1233, the feast of the Assumption of Our Lady. An early historical source also ascribes to this date the Seven Holy Founders' first vision of the Blessed Virgin, thus the foundation of the Servite Order (Servites). The order to which Phillip seeks admittance as a laybrother in the year 1254.

1st Day

There is one figure in the early history of the Servite Order whom friars in each generation have honoured with special devotion and regard: Saint Philip Benizi, fifth Prior General (1276-1285) of the Order of the Friars Servants of Mary. Through the holiness of his own life and by the care with which he guided the affairs of the Order during the difficult era in its history, when its very survival was threatened, Philip has laid claim to a unique place in Servite tradition.
