Dominus pascit me, et nihil mihi deerit. Le Seigneur est mon berger : je ne manquerai de rien. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. El Señor es mi pastor, nada me falta. L'Eterno è il mio pastore, nulla mi mancherà. O Senhor é o meu pastor; de nada terei falta. Der Herr ist mein Hirte; mir wird nichts mangeln. Господь - Пастырь мой; я ни в чем не буду нуждаться. اللهُ راعِيَّ، فلَنْ يَنقُصَنِي شَيءٌ (Ps 23,1)
Père céleste, je crois en les paroles de Votre Fils bien-aimé, Jésus : « Demandez, et l’on vous donnera ; chercherez, et vous trouverez ; frappez et l’on vous ouvrira*. »
Je viens me confier à Vous.
Je suis vivant grâce à Vous et je vis pour faire Votre Volonté.
Votre serviteur, le Père Théophane, a prié pour les nécessiteux et Vous les avez réconfortés avec Vos bénédictions.
Par son intercession, je prie pour obtenir cette bénédiction particulière.....
Accordez-moi la grâce de vivre une vie d'amour et de service jusqu’à la fin de mes jours.
Daignez m’exaucer par Jésus-Christ, notre Seigneur. Amen.

The Well Of Wisdom - His Sermons
A GLIMPSE OF HIS HOLY LIFE
"The sermons of Fr. Theophane were often simple, brief and matter of fact; he had an unusual gift of speech to lift his listeners to the heights of lofty thoughts." (Rt. Rev. Dr. Hippolitus Kunnumkal)
"As a preacher of mission retreats, Fr. Theophane's words had a power to purify the listeners' hearts as if in the burning heat of a crucible… He had employed 'word-economy' in his speeches; and he spoke only what was necessary and essential." (Ignatius Gonsalves)
"Fr.Theophane had an ability to speak to anyone about any topic. His eloquence had a power to captivate the audience. His talks were enriched with bits of jokes and witty remarks. He could keep seriousness while he made his audience laugh". (Fr. Fulgens)
SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY (The miracles of Fr. Theophane)
Brother Bartholomew Capuchin, Ponnurunni:
Once the bull in our monastery went violent and chased our cow-man in order to attack him. The cow-man, David climbed on a coconut tree to save himself, while the angry bull looked on standing under the tree. Fr. Theophane was informed and when he came he called the bull by a wave of his hand. The bull went to him with the obedience of a school child. Father told him to go to the shed and the bull calmly obeyed!
Varghese karukappily, Maradu:
While the construction works of the Ponnurunni Ashram was in progress with the help of the donations of the natives, Fr. Theophane used to visit houses with the purpose of a mendicant. In one of those visits he happened to go to the house of a non-Christian. The big dog in the house was left free meanwhile. It came forth furiously and got hold of the habit of Father attempting a bite. The household seemed unconcerned of this. Then Fr. Theophane commanded the dog: "Sit down!" Immediately, as if by some spell, the dog sat there. By evening, Father reached the monastery after visiting many houses. He found the owner of the dog waiting for him very much perplexed. He said that the dog is still sitting at the spot where Father had commanded. He begged pardon for their arrogance and indecency. With a smile Fr. Theophane consoled him and said that it would get up and go after a while.
Mary Paily:
Mary's husband was bed-ridden as he was suffering from cancer. Learning about his sufferings, After Theophane came to Mary's home, consoled him and prayed for him. Meanwhile Father noticed a mango-tree in the yard and said: "You must cut it down!" Mary replied that they had no right to do so because they were tenants. Then Father said as a prophecy: Never mind, it will die out by itself!" For their great wonder, after a few days the tree began to dry out and eventually it fell down without causing any harm to anyone.
ORGANISATIONS
The spirit of service and availability that was typical of Fr. Theophane's character is still lived out in our organizations with the motives of social welfare. They are:
1. Theophane Seva Samidhi: This organisation functions with the motive of social service.
2. Theophane Marana Fund: This organisation provides with monetary assistance for the funeral functions of the members.
3. Theophane Vivaha Nidhi : It makes generous contributions for the expenses of the marriage of poor girls.
4. Theophane Guild : It was formed on 18th of June 1992, V. Rev. Fr. Leny Konnully, the then Provincial as its President, Fr. Wilfred Prasadam and Fr. Irvin James as its director and Asst.director respectively. Its prime aim is the promotion of the cause of Fr. Theophane. It also deals with the matters concerning the Theophane Samadhi by supplying pious articles, the sacramentals and the related materials. The subscription of the Manushyasnehi magazine is also provided here.
THUS SPOKE HIS CONTEMPORARIES
No one who has met Fr. Theophane once has been able to forget him. Such was his enthralling personality. Hundreds of people have their testimonies and memories of this venerable religious. Among them a few are selected and included: Brother Lazar from Calvary Ashram, Trichur:
I can never forget his warm and loving smile!
Brother Ejidius from Loreto Ashram, Muvattupuzha:
When I joined the monastery, I felt no sorrow or loneliness because of the love and warmth of Fr. Theophane's presence. He extended his kindness to the poor and the sorrowful. He helped in the kitchen by washing the plates and cleaning the fish. He was a dedicated confessor and a well-known retreat preacher. He preached more by his life than by his lips and tongue. His spirit of poverty and mortification was the source of his forceful preaching. He slept minimum and he ate minimum; but he was ever ready to do any service to others. Fr. Fulgens O.F.M. Cap, addresses Fr. Theophane 'the Chief Justice of Kerala Capuchin Mission and says:
There was no quarrel or misunderstanding or transfer-dispute that was not solved by Fr. Theophane. Everyone, whether it be the senior priest or the junior priest or the parishioners, accepted the judgements and decisions of Father. In Narakkal, he solved a hundred-year old case.
Rev. Dr. Daniel D' Souza from Holy Family Clinic, Brahmvar, Karnataka:
One thing he could never tolerate was injustice. Equally he hated hypocrisy. Hence, some rich men of Kottagiri found him annoying. But, the poor always flocked around him.

The Scent of a Holy Death (THE THEOPHANE SAMADHI)
A beautiful shrine is built around the holy sepulchre of Fr.Theophane. The sepulchre stands with an epitaph “Fr. Theophane, the selfless Sage who held high the torch of smile by embracing every man in agony, is still here, waiting for men". Hundreds of people gather here everyday individually and in group to pray and pour out their sorrows; never can we find the shrine empty. The ever-burning candles and the ever-living prayer atmosphere are the hallmark of the Samadhi. People of all age and from all walks of life gather here - the youth, the aged, the students, the mothers, the learned, the illiterate, the elite, the rich, the poor and so on…Everybody returns comforted! It shows the deep bond of faith they have in their Veliyachan. On every Monday at 6.15 a.m there is Holy Mass. It is followed by the novena. At 5 p.m. there is holy hour and novena. It is followed by the holy mass. Hundreds of faithful flock together for the Intercessory Prayers Service. These prayers are enriched with simple rituals and group songs.
Petitions of the people and the thanksgivings for the favours received are read out during the prayer. Besides, a special Mass integrated with intercessory prayers is celebrated on every second Saturday at 10 a.m. A thanksgiving Mass is offered on the last day of the month. Please report the favours received with your signature and full address. Almost every day we get reports about miracles. Every day we interview the devoties who receive special favours through the intercession of the Servent of God. When we open the samadhi at 5.15 a.m. every day some devoties will be waiting outside in order to enter the samadhi. Even at 10.30 p.m. devoties are there to pray in the samadhi. The whole day there will be somebody in prayer in the samadhi,if not a group. Thus the samadhi is emerging as a growing pilgrimage center.

Tout comme le Grand Prêtre Éternel vous a gratifié de ses bénédictions sur terre, je prie pour qu’Il vous choisisse pour amener la paix dans ma vie.
Je Vous salue Marie…, Notre Père…, Gloire au Père…
Ô Seigneur, si c’est Votre Divine Volonté, permettez que Mgr Jean Eyraud soit élevé au rang des Saints de l’Église, afin que d’autres puissent connaître et imiter sa sainte vie.

N.B. : Au moment où Mgr Eyraud couronna la Vierge Pèlerine de Fatima dans son église Saint-Pierre (St. Peter Church) le 31 janvier 1954, un miracle eut lieu d’après de nombreux fidèles.
Le livre en anglais, non traduit en français à ce jour, « Père, The Little Frenchman - The Life and Legacy of the Right Reverend Monsignor Jean M. Eyraud, V.F », de Darlene LaBranche, publié par « Committee for Canonization of Monsignor Jean M. Eyraud » (172 pages, édité aux USA en 1994, réédité en 2002, ASIN : B0006F5TNC), raconte ce prodige :
« Au moment précis où il couronna la tête de la Sainte Vierge, Mgr Eyraud offrit ses 50 ans de sacerdoce et demanda une paix durable dans le monde. À ce moment, il prit conscience qu’il avait mené un combat de 50 années comme soldat de Dieu au service de la paix, cette paix qui éliminera les guerres et les soldats. Il fit donc le geste du couronnement avec une grande joie et un sourire sur les lèvres. Alors, aux dires de plusieurs paroissiens, la Vierge se pencha en avant et lui sourit ».
Chosen priest of God, because of your piety, humility, devotion to duty, Lover of the Sacred heart of Jesus, I believe that you are with God.
Your kindness and guidance as a leader, a shepherd, a father is unforgettable. You have been a Divine model to both saint and sinner. All who came to know you always came away refreshed and comforted.
Msgr. in the Name of Jesus Christ, the son of God, Mary, the Queen of Heaven, listen today to my special needs… (mention them here) and intercede that my request may be granted for the greater glory of God.
As the Eternal High Priest bestowed his blessings on you while on earth, I pray that he will choose you to bring peace in my life.
Hail Mary… Our Father… Glory be…
Oh Lord, if it is your Holy will, please let Msgr. Jean Eyraud be declared a saint of the church so others may know and imitate his holy life.
If after reading about his life and praying for his intercession, a person feels she was granted a miracle through Monsignor Eyraud’s intercession, contact a member of the committee so the miracle may be studied and included in his Cause for Sainthood :

Prière pour la béatification
de la Servante de Dieu Henriette Aymer
Dieu notre Père, dans Ta grande bonté et Ta Miséricorde, Tu as appelé Henriette à être témoin de Ton Amour révélé dans les Cœurs de Jésus et de Marie.
En adoration devant le Saint Sacrement, elle a réalisé le besoin de contempler, de vivre et de proclamer Ton Amour dans un monde brisé par la violence et la division.
Avec Pierre Coudrin, elle a fondé la Congrégation des Sacrés Cœurs de Jésus et de Marie et de l’Adoration perpétuelle pour continuer cette mission toujours et partout.
Par son intercession, obtiens-nous la faveur que nous Te demandons….. (nommer la demande).
En Ta grande bonté, fais que l’Église reconnaisse bientôt en elle une authentique témoin de l’Évangile.
Dieu notre Père, Tu as favorisé Sainte Claudine Thévenet de l’expérience intime de Ta bonté miséricordieuse, et Tu l’as appelée à consacrer sa vie à l’éducation des jeunes, lui donnant de puiser dans le Cœur de Ton Fils un zèle ardent pour faire connaître et aimer Jésus et Marie.
Nous Te prions : Fais de nous aussi les témoins de Ton Amour, livrés comme elle à l’action de l’Esprit, attentifs aux besoins de nos frères, surtout des plus démunis, et accorde-nous, par son intercession, à louange de Ta Gloire, la grâce que nous Te demandons…..

De zielen der rechtvaardigen zijn in de hand van God, en de kwelling des doods zal hen niet treffen.
Voor de oogen der ongeloovigen schijnen zij te sterven en hun uiteinde was alse en ramp, en hun scheiden van ons, als een ondergang. Doch, zij zijn in vrede en hebben zij ook, in de oogen der menschen geleden, zoo is nochtans hunne hoop met onsterfelijkheid bekroond. (Boek der Wijsheid, III, 1-4).*
O Edele Vorstin, o teernminde Koningin der Belgen, het gansche Vaderland betreurt Uwen plotdelingen dood en weent over het droevig lot van Uwen echtgenoot, onzen duurbaren Koning, en van Uwe lieve Kinderen. Gods raadsbeluiten zijn ondoorgrondelijk en diep buigen wij het hoofd voor Zijn aanbiddelijken Wil. Maar, de kroon die U werd ontnomen hier op arrde, wordt door den Heer vervangen met een onvergankelijke kroon, in den Hemel ! Want, Gij diendet den Heer in vurig gellof en gebed, Gij waart eene trouwe echtgenoote en voorbeeldige moeder ; Gij hebt U eerbiedig en edelmoedig neergebogen over den armen en lijdenden mensch dien, Gij met woord en daad hebt geholpen en opgebeurd. Uwe werken volgen U !
Komt dan, gezegende mijns Vaders, en bezit het rijk dat U is voorbereid.
1. Aimez la justice, vous qui êtes les juges de la terre ; que vos pensées sur le Seigneur soient selon la droiture, et cherchez-le d'un cœur sincère ;
2. car il se laisse trouver par ceux qui ne le tentent point, et il se manifeste à ceux qui se confient à lui.
3. En effet, les pensées perverses séparent de Dieu, et sa puissance, quand on la met à l'épreuve, accuse les insensés.
4.La sagesse n'entre pas dans une âme qui médite le mal, et n'habite pas dans un corps esclave du péché.
