M. Felicita Baseggio OSA"},"content":{"rendered":"<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anna Clara Giovanna Baseggio was born in Ferrara on 5 May 1752. From an early age she showed a strong artistic inclination, leading her parents to imagine a promising future. At the age of 12, she was entrusted to her paternal uncle to learn better the art of wood gilding but her encounter with God led her to desire a different path, oriented towards religious life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There in Ferrara, in fact, Dom Mario Scudellari, the Olivetan abbot of Santa Francesca Romana, began to instruct her in the doctrine of the faith, preparing her to receive her first communion and it was precisely in this sacramental communication that was the place for this encounter: \u201cI knew my God\u201d, she told her Olivetan spiritual father after receiving the Body of Christ. The family, however, did not welcome this \u201cdistraction\u201d from her artistic practice and began to hinder her by even removing her from her spiritual guide with transfers to different cities: Venice, Padua, Siena and Senigallia. The young woman endured with resignation every adverse measure, every mistreatment of her dear ones, every suffering inflicted on her growing vocation thanks to love for the Father, to whom she ardently desired to consecrate herself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1776, at the age of eighteen, the Servant of God returned definitively to Rovigo, with her parents, not at all persuaded to move away from the journey of faith that she had undertaken; on the contrary, she returned even more determined in wanting to continue it, supported by the spiritual direction of Don Annibale Coltro and, shortly after, of Msgr. Giovanni Battista Lachini. To the choice of religious life, now evident although not manifested, her family reacted by exacerbating their hatred towards her with continuous mortifications and pains, even forcing her to pray in secret.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Her joy, her every energy was reserved for love for the Lord, ever increasing, as was the assimilation of the teaching and experience of the Cross. There was no lack of spiritual struggles, faced with prayer, in the awareness that everything happened by God\u2019s permission. In the year 1782, after having overcome numerous obstacles and temptations, the intention to become a nun became irrepressible and so she clearly manifested it to the family, supported in the enterprise by Msgr. Lachini. The reaction was, as expected, full of hostility, especially on the part of his brother Sante, but the Servant of God did not lose faith and hope, turning with charity, especially towards him, despite his contrary attitude.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Finally, as had been anticipated in a heavenly vision, in the first days of October of the year 1783 she left the house to enter the much-desired cloister of the convent of the Tertiaries of San Francis of Rovigo, choosing for herself, as she did in spirit, a religious life of \u201cpenance\u201d and \u201csuffering\u201d, wanting to find and follow the narrow path that \u201cleads to life\u201d. In this convent, on November 8 of the following year, as a novice, she received the habit and took the name of Sister Maria Felicita Fortunata, and then made her religious profession on November 9, 1785. She immediately showed great dedication, humility, and obedience to the commands of the superior and of the confessor, showing herself exemplary, while remaining humble, in the formative path and spiritual growth. Her own teacher, Sister Rosa De Paoli, testifies in writing that she was so impressed by the edifying example of this young woman that she even considered herself unworthy in the presence of her. Nonetheless, the Servant of God attracted the envy and gossip of the other nuns towards her, also stimulated by the malicious curiosity about the numerous extraordinary phenomena related to her person and witnessed by some of the sisters closest to her. This was an adverse attitude, that was held toward her in the monastery and which would accompany her throughout her stay there, and even more so in her role of superior, as a victim of spurious accusations which later proved completely unfounded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To all this she reacted with resignation to the will of God, in prayer addressed to the cross, in the devoted entrusting to the Virgin Mary and in the joy received from the heavenly visits of the Child Jesus, the \u201cPicanano\u201d or \u201cBambolo\u201d as she used to call him until the end of her earthly life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Later, as was predicted by the Servant of God in a prophetic ecstasy, Europe came to be impacted by Napoleon and the consequences are well known; among these, the one that is most interesting here is the first suppression of convents and monasteries decreed on June 8, 1805, which also involved the monastery of the Tertiaries of San Francesco. In this regard, it is important to highlight that Sister Maria Felicita had no fear of the impending upheavals; in fact, her tranquility found its source in the trust and knowledge of God\u2019s love for his children. Felicita Baseggio, together with other nuns, were welcomed among the hermit nuns of Saint Augustine, in the convent of the Holy Trinity of Rovigo where she embraced and professed religious life according to the principles of the Augustinian Rule: it was 13 December 1805.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Already on 13 March in 1806, under the permission of the Vicar Chapter of Adria, she took the habit and on July 28 of this same year she made her solemn vows. Also, in this new conventual reality, characterized by an austere lifestyle, due to the rigor of the enclosure and the rigid impositions, Felicita Baseggio, obedient to the will of God and of the superiors, was the victim of numerous oppressions by some sisters, for whom, despite everything, she never stopped praying, without rancor and remaining projected towards love of neighbor, trying to build everywhere a spirit of communion according to the spirit of Augustine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Certainly, as witnessed, there was no lack of extraordinary and prodigious events relating to the Venerable also within the walls of this convent. In the meantime, the French Empire continued its expansion, imposing its determination with greater force, including the total suppression of all religious congregations, decreed on 25 April 1810.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The convent of the Holy Trinity of Rovigo, therefore, was definitively suppressed and the religious were forced to leave the cloister. Felicita Baseggio moved to live, at first, in the house of her brother Sante and later in a rented house. Although in the world, her life continued according to the dictates of religious life, as we read in the eulogy in her honor: \u201cShe changes her home, she does not change feelings or affections: dead to herself and to the world, in her room she equally finds retreat from the world, the solitude of the heart, and God\u201d. She, therefore, continued to live withdrawn in the house in prayer (except to go out to the nearby church for spiritual nourishment) which was visited by a few people, mainly priests. In the world she continued to live as if she were still in the Augustinian monastery, with a life marked by prayer, work, establishing a community spirit with the people who sought her to obtain from her direction, a consoling word, a light of hope in difficult times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Her house was called, by those who had the privilege of frequenting it, \u201chouse of bliss\u201d, precisely to underline the uplifting effect of her experience of faith and her testimony of charity. Furthermore, numerous were the recourses of the faithful, supporting her for her intercession with the Father or grateful for the graces received from her; a circumstance that greatly disturbed her soul, considering herself unworthy of so much grace granted by God. In the last years of her life, in need of care, she moved to the house of a nephew, where she died in the odor of sanctity on the 11th. February 1829.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Despite the hostility of the family, the first and not easy obstacle to overcome along the vocational journey, the Venerable did not lose hope, finding solace in the prayer addressed to the Crucifix, enduring the denigrations inflicted with resignation, humility, and obedience, never refusing the humblest work and the fatigue in serving promptly, always showing charity. To suffer for the love of God and to share the weight of his sufferings was her desire, so much so that she received the mystical gift of the cross-shaped stigmata on her chest, manifested several times in the course of her life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sister Maria Felicita embraced Christ crucified, gathering from his heart the strength to accept all suffering, to forgive the evil received, to transform pain into a gift, to love according to the logic of the Gospel. The whole life of the Servant of God was lived under the banner of love for the Cross and her existence was definitely a positive response to God\u2019s call to holiness. The virtues of venerable Maria Felicita Fortunata Baseggio O.S.A. were declared heroic by the Church on February 20, 2021.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Postulatio Generalis Ordinis Sancti Augustini<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Anna Clara Giovanna Baseggio\u00a0nacque a Ferrara il 5 maggio dell\u2019anno 1752. Fin da piccola\u00a0mostr\u00f2 una spiccata propensione artistica,\u00a0lasciando immaginare ai suoi genitori un\u00a0promettente avvenire. A 12 anni fu\u00a0affidata allo zio paterno per meglio\u00a0apprendere l\u2019arte dell\u2019indoratura del legno\u00a0ma l\u2019incontro con Dio la port\u00f2 a\u00a0desiderare un cammino diverso, orientato\u00a0verso la vita religiosa. Qui a Ferrara,\u00a0infatti, don Mario Scudellari, abate\u00a0olivetano di Santa Francesca Romana,\u00a0cominci\u00f2 ad istruirla nella dottrina della\u00a0fede, preparandola a ricevere la prima\u00a0comunione e proprio la comunicazione\u00a0sacramentale fu il luogo di questo\u00a0incontro: \u201cho conosciuto il mio Dio\u201d,\u00a0disse al padre olivetano dopo aver ricevuto il Corpo di Cristo. La famiglia, tuttavia, non\u00a0accolse con favore questa \u201cdistrazione\u201d dalla pratica artistica e cominci\u00f2 ad ostacolarla\u00a0anche allontanandola dalla guida spirituale con trasferimenti in diverse citt\u00e0: Venezia,\u00a0Padova, Siena e Senigallia. La giovane sub\u00ec con rassegnazione ogni provvedimento\u00a0avverso, ogni maltrattamento dei suoi cari, ogni sofferenza inflitta alla sua crescente\u00a0vocazione grazie all\u2019amore per il Padre, al quale desiderava ardentemente consacrarsi.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Nel 1776, all\u2019et\u00e0 di diciotto anni, la Serva di Dio rientr\u00f2 definitivamente a Rovigo,\u00a0presso i genitori, per nulla persuasa ad allontanarsi dall\u2019intrapreso cammino di fede; anzi,\u00a0torn\u00f2 ancor pi\u00f9 determinata nel volerlo proseguire, sostenuta dalla direzione spirituale di\u00a0don Annibale Coltro e, poco dopo, di mons. Giovanni Battista Lachini. Alla scelta di vita\u00a0religiosa, ormai evidente seppur non manifestata, la famiglia reag\u00ec inasprendo l\u2019astio\u00a0nei suoi confronti con continue mortificazioni e pene, costringendola perfino a pregare\u00a0di nascosto.\u00a0Nonostante quest\u2019avversione, primo e non facile ostacolo da superare lungo il\u00a0cammino vocazionale, Anna non perse la speranza, affidandosi in completo abbandono\u00a0alla volont\u00e0 di Dio, trovando sollievo nella preghiera rivolta al Crocifisso, sopportando\u00a0con rassegnazione, umilt\u00e0 ed obbedienza le denigrazioni inflitte, non rifiutando i lavori\u00a0pi\u00f9 umili e la fatica nel servire prontamente, mostrando sempre carit\u00e0. La sua gioia,\u00a0ogni sua energia fu riservata all\u2019amore verso il Signore, sempre crescente, come fu\u00a0l\u2019assimilazione dell\u2019insegnamento e dell\u2019esperienza della Croce. Patire per l\u2019amore di\u00a0Dio e condividere il peso delle sofferenze fu il suo desiderio, tanto da ricevere il dono\u00a0mistico delle stimmate a forma di croce nel petto, manifestatesi pi\u00f9 volte nel corso della\u00a0sua vita. Non mancarono le lotte spirituali, affrontate con la preghiera, nella\u00a0consapevolezza che tutto accadeva per permissione di Dio. Giunto l\u2019anno 1782, dopo\u00a0aver superato numerosi ostacoli e tentazioni, l\u2019intenzione di farsi monaca si rese\u00a0incontenibile e cos\u00ec la manifest\u00f2 chiaramente alla famiglia, sostenuta nell\u2019impresa da\u00a0mons. Lachini.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>La reazione fu, come prevedibile, carica di ostilit\u00e0, soprattutto da parte del fratello\u00a0Sante; ma la Serva di Dio non perse la fede e la speranza, rivolgendosi con carit\u00e0,\u00a0specialmente verso di lui, nonostante l\u2019atteggiamento contrario.\u00a0Finalmente, come le era stato anticipato in una visione celeste, nei primi giorni di\u00a0ottobre dell\u2019anno 1783 lasci\u00f2 la casa per entrare nel tanto desiderato chiostro del\u00a0convento delle Terziarie di San Francesco di Rovigo, scegliendo per s\u00e9, cos\u00ec come fece\u00a0in spirito, una vita religiosa di \u201cpenitenze\u201d e \u201cpatimento\u201d, volendo trovare e seguire la\u00a0via angusta che \u201cmena alla vita\u201d. In questo convento, l\u20198 novembre dell\u2019anno\u00a0successivo, come novizia, indoss\u00f2 l\u2019abito e assunse il nome di suor Maria Felicita\u00a0Fortunata, per poi emettere la professione religiosa il 9 novembre 1785. Da subito\u00a0mostr\u00f2 grande dedizione, umilt\u00e0 e obbedienza ai comandi della superiora e del\u00a0confessore, mostrandosi esemplare, pur rimanendo umile, nel percorso formativo e di\u00a0crescita spirituale. La sua stessa maestra, suor Rosa De Paoli, testimonia per iscritto che\u00a0rimase talmente colpita dall\u2019edificante esempio dellA giovane da ritenersi, persino,\u00a0indegna al suo cospetto. Ci\u00f2 nonostante, la Serva di Dio attir\u00f2 verso di s\u00e9 l\u2019invidia e le\u00a0malelingue delle altre religiose, stimolate anche dalla maliziosa curiosit\u00e0 riguardo ai\u00a0numerosi fenomeni straordinari riferiti alla sua persona e testimoniati da alcune\u00a0consorelle a lei pi\u00f9 vicine. Un atteggiamento avverso, quello riservatole in monastero,\u00a0che l\u2019accompagner\u00e0 per tutta la permanenza in questo luogo, ancor pi\u00f9 nel ruolo di\u00a0superiora, vittima di accuse pretestuose dimostratesi poi del tutto infondate.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>A tutto ci\u00f2 reag\u00ec nella rassegnazione al volere di Dio, nella preghiera rivolta alla\u00a0croce, nell\u2019affidamento devoto alla Vergine Maria e nella gioia ricevuta dalle visite\u00a0celesti di Ges\u00f9 Bambino, il \u201cPicanano\u201d o \u201cBambolo\u201d come era solita chiamarlo,\u00a0cominciate in occasione della vestizione e manifestatesi fino alla fine della sua vita\u00a0terrena.\u00a0In seguito, come previsto dalla Serva di Dio in un\u2019estasi profetica, l\u2019Europa giunse\u00a0all\u2019impatto con Napoleone e le conseguenze sono ben note; tra queste, quella che qui\u00a0pi\u00f9 interessa \u00e8 la prima soppressione dei conventi e monasteri decretata l\u20198 giugno 1805,\u00a0che coinvolse anche il monastero delle Terziarie di San Francesco. A riguardo, \u00e8 di\u00a0rilievo evidenziare che suor Maria Felicita non ebbe nessun timore per gli imminenti\u00a0sconvolgimenti; infatti, la sua tranquillit\u00e0 trov\u00f2 fonte nella fiducia e nella contezza\u00a0dell\u2019amore di Dio per i suoi figli. Felicita Baseggio, insieme ad altre religiose, fu accolta\u00a0tra le monache eremitane di Sant\u2019Agostino, nel convento della Santissima Trinit\u00e0 di\u00a0Rovigo dove abbracci\u00f2 e profess\u00f2 la vita religiosa secondo i principi della Regola\u00a0Agostiniana: era il 13 dicembre 1805. Gi\u00e0 il 13 marzo del 1806, dietro licenza del Vicario\u00a0Capitolare di Adria, fece la vestizione ed il 28 luglio di questo stesso anno emise i voti.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Anche in questa nuova realt\u00e0 conventuale, caratterizzata da uno stile di vita austero, per\u00a0il rigore della clausura e le rigide imposizioni, la Baseggio, obbediente al volere di Dio e\u00a0dei superiori, fu vittima di numerose angherie da parte di alcune consorelle, per le quali,\u00a0nonostante tutto, non smise mai di pregare, senza rancore e rimanendo proiettata verso\u00a0l\u2019amore per il prossimo, cercando di costruire ovunque uno spirito di comunione secondo\u00a0lo spirito di Agostino.\u00a0Certamente, come testimoniato, non mancarono fatti straordinari e prodigiosi\u00a0riferiti alla Venerabile anche tra le mura di questo convento. Nel frattempo, l\u2019Impero\u00a0francese continuava la sua espansione, imponendo con pi\u00f9 forza ogni sua\u00a0determinazione, tra cui la totale soppressione di tutte le congregazioni religiose,\u00a0decretata in data 25 aprile 1810. Il convento della Santissima Trinit\u00e0 di Rovigo, dunque,\u00a0fu definitivamente soppresso e le religiose costrette all\u2019esclaustrazione. La Baseggio\u00a0pass\u00f2 ad abitare, in un primo momento, in casa del fratello Sante e successivamente in\u00a0una casa presa a pigione. Seppur nel mondo, la sua vita prosegu\u00ec secondo i dettami di\u00a0quella religiosa, come si legge nell\u2019elogio in suo onore: \u00abCangia domicilio, non cangia\u00a0sentimenti, n\u00e9 affetti: morta a s\u00e9 e al mondo, nella sua stanza trova egualmente ritiro dal\u00a0secolo, la solitudine del cuore, Iddio\u00bb. Ella, dunque, continu\u00f2 a vivere ritirata in casa\u00a0nella preghiera, salvo per raggiungere la vicina chiesa per il nutrimento spirituale,\u00a0visitata da poche persone, prevalentemente sacerdoti. Nel mondo continu\u00f2 a vivere come\u00a0fosse ancora nel monastero agostiniano, con una vita scandita da preghiera, lavoro,\u00a0instaurando uno spirito comunitario con le persone che la cercavano per ottenere da lei una direzione, una parola consolatrice, un lume di speranza in tempi difficili. La sua casa\u00a0\u00e8 stata denominata, da chi ha avuto il privilegio di frequentarla, \u201ccasa di beatitudine\u201d,\u00a0proprio a voler sottolineare l\u2019effetto edificante scaturito della sua esperienza di fede e testimonianza di carit\u00e0. Inoltre, numeroso fu il ricorso dei fedeli supplicanti la sua\u00a0intercessione presso il Padre o riconoscenti per le grazie ricevute; circostanza che le\u00a0cre\u00f2 non poco turbamento dell\u2019animo, ritenendosi indegna di tanta grazia concessa da\u00a0Dio.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Negli ultimi anni della sua vita, bisognosa di cure, si trasfer\u00ec presso la casa di un\u00a0nipote, dove mor\u00ec in odore di santit\u00e0 l\u201911 febbraio 1829.\u00a0Nonostante l\u2019ostilit\u00e0 della famiglia, primo e non facile ostacolo da superare lungo\u00a0il cammino vocazionale, la Venerabile non perse la speranza, trovando sollievo nella\u00a0preghiera rivolta al Crocifisso, sopportando con rassegnazione, umilt\u00e0 ed obbedienza le\u00a0denigrazioni inflitte, non rifiutando i lavori pi\u00f9 umili e la fatica nel servire prontamente,\u00a0mostrando sempre carit\u00e0. Patire per l\u2019amore di Dio e condividere il peso delle sofferenze\u00a0fu il suo desiderio, tanto da ricevere il dono mistico delle stimmate a forma di croce nel\u00a0petto, manifestatesi pi\u00f9 volte nel corso della sua vita. Suor Maria Felicita abbracci\u00f2 Cristo\u00a0crocifisso, cogliendo dal Suo cuore la forza di accettare ogni sofferenza, di perdonare il\u00a0male ricevuto, di trasformare il dolore in dono, di amare secondo la logica del Vangelo.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Tutta la vita della Serva di Dio \u00e8 stata vissuta all\u2019insegna dell\u2019amore verso la Croce e la\u00a0sua esistenza, \u00e8 stata una risposta positiva alla chiamata di Dio alla santit\u00e0.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Le virt\u00f9 di Maria Felicita Fortunata Baseggio O.S.A. sono state dichiarate come\u00a0eroiche dalla Chiesa il 20 febbraio 2021.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Postulatio Generalis Ordinis Sancti Augustini<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anna Clara Giovanna Baseggio was born in Ferrara on 5 May 1752.
