SANTO DO DIA


São Nuno de Santa Maria


Nuno Álvares Pereira nasceu em Portugal a 24 de Junho de 1360, e recebeu a educação cavalheiresca típica dos filhos das famílias nobres do seu tempo.

Aos treze anos torna-se pajem da rainha D. Leonor, tendo sido bem recebido na Corte e acabando por ser pouco depois cavaleiro. Aos dezesseis anos casa-se, por vontade de seu pai, com uma jovem e rica viúva, D. Leonor de Alvim.

Da sua união nascem três filhos, dois do sexo masculino, que morrem em tenra idade, e uma do sexo feminino, Beatriz, a qual mais tarde viria a desposar o filho do rei D. João I, D. Afonso, primeiro duque de Bragança.Quando o rei D. Fernando I morreu a 22 de Outubro de 1383 sem ter deixado filhos varões, o seu irmão D. João, Mestre de Avis, viu-se envolvido na luta pela coroa lusitana, que lhe era disputada pelo rei de Castela por ter desposado a filha do falecido rei. Nuno tomou o partido de D. João, o qual o nomeou Condestável, isto é, comandante supremo do exército. Nuno conduziu o exército português repetidas vezes à vitória, até se ter consagrado na batalha de Aljubarrota (14 de Agosto de 1385), a qual acaba por determinar à resolução do conflito.Os dotes militares de Nuno eram no entanto acompanhados por uma espiritualidade sincera e profunda.

O amor pela Eucaristia e pela Virgem Maria são os alicerces da sua vida interior. O estandarte que elegeu como insígnia pessoal traz as imagens do Crucificado, de Maria e dos cavaleiros S. Tiago e S. Jorge. Fez ainda construir às suas próprias custas numerosas igrejas e mosteiros, entre os quais se contam o Carmo de Lisboa e a Igreja de S. Maria da Vitória, na Batalha.Com a morte da esposa, em 1387, Nuno recusa contrair novas núpcias, tornando-se um modelo de pureza de vida. Quando finalmente alcançou a paz, distribui grande parte dos seus bens entre os seus companheiros, antigos combatentes, e acaba por se desfazer totalmente daqueles em 1423, quando decide entrar no convento carmelita por ele fundado, tomando então o nome de frei Nuno de Santa Maria. Impelido pelo Amor, abandona as armas e o poder para revestir-se da armadura do Espírito recomendada pela Regra do Carmo: era a opção por uma mudança radical de vida em que sela o percurso da fé autêntica que sempre o tinha norteado.

O Condestável do rei de Portugal, o Comandante supremo do exército e seu guia vitorioso, o fundador e benfeitor da comunidade carmelita, ao entrar no convento recusa todos os privilégios e assume como própria a condição mais humilde, a de frade Donato, dedicando-se totalmente ao serviço do Senhor, de Maria — a sua terna Padroeira que sempre venerou—, e dos pobres, nos quais reconhece o rosto de Jesus.Significativo foi o dia da morte de frei Nuno de Santa Maria, aos 71 anos de idade. Era o Domingo de Páscoa, dia 1 de Abril de 1431.

Após sua morte, passou imediatamente a ser reputado de “santo” pelo povo, que desde então o começa a chamar “Santo Condestável”.Nuno Álvares Pereira foi beatificado em 23 de Janeiro de 1918 pelo Papa Bento XV através do Decreto "Clementíssimus Deus" e foi consagrado o dia 6 de Novembro ao, então, beato. O Santo Padre, Papa Bento XVI, durante o Consistório de 21 de Fevereiro de 2009 determina que o Beato Nuno seja inscrito no álbum dos Santos no dia 26 de Abril de 2009.


São Nuno de Santa Maria, rogai por nós!

Long time lurker, thought I would say hello! I really dont post much but thanks for the good times I have here. Love this place..

When I was hurt in that car accident my life would be changed always. Sadly that driver had no car insurance and I was going to be in pain for ever.

This was not time for me to start and guess what to do. I had to find a good personal injury attorney to help me get what I needed. After all, my family was counting on me.

How bad was it? I has bedridden for 8 months, I had to have constant care and my medical bills went through the roof!

Fortunately, I found a good referral site to help me.

I will post more later this year to tell you more about what I have been going through.

If you need an accident attorney try the guys at

The organization delivers 1 [url=http://www.hotdeal.vn/]nhom mua gia re[/url] per working working day in every single of the marketplaces it serves. The Groupon functions as an assurance settlement producing use of ThePoint's program: if a specified amount of gentlemen and ladies indicator up for the give, then the provide will get to be accessible to all if the predetermined least is not reached, no 1 gets the offer you that working day. This decreases risk for retailers, who can manage the low cost discount coupons as volume reductions as successfully as product sales promotion instruments. Groupon tends to make funds by keeping around 50 % the funds the client pays for the coupon.

For illustration, an $eighty therapeutic massage could be acquired by the buyer for $40 through Groupon, and then Groupon and the retailer would split the $forty. That is, the retailer presents a therapeutic massage valued at $eighty and will get about $20 from Groupon for it (beneath a fifty%/fifty% split up). Or, if $240 well worth of house portray providers is acquired by the consumer for $fifty through Groupon, then the business will get $twenty 5 and Groupon retains $twenty five. The consumer will get the therapeutic therapeutic massage, or the residence portray support, in these illustrations, from the retailer for which they at 1st paid out out $40 (or $fifty) to Groupon. There are specified firms to which Groupon originally did not offer you you its companies, like using photographs ranges and strip golf equipment nonetheless, using photographs ranges have been showcased on Groupon.

Not like labeled advertising and marketing, the provider supplier does not invest any upfront price to just take component: Groupon collects private data from inclined customers and then contacts only these customers, mainly by day-to-day electronic mail, who could possibly be fascinated in a certain solution or provider.

Groupon employs a substantial assortment of copywriters who draft descriptions for the bargains highlighted by digital mail and on the internet website. Groupon's marketing and advertising textual content for the 'deals' has been observed as a contributing component to the recognition of the site, showcasing a exclusive combine of extensive truth-examining and witty humor.

Owing to Groupon's market getting primarily composed of feminine clients, the bargains are often focused on the wellness, health and elegance marketplaces.

There are potential issues with the firm design. For illustration, a lucrative provide could temporarily swamp a small firm with way also a whole lot of buyers, jeopardizing a probability that consumers will be dissatisfied, or that there will not be ample solution to meet up with up with the need to have. Gap, a massive clothing retailer, was ready to handle 445,000 coupon codes in a countrywide offer you (even even though it knowledgeable server issues at 1 level), but a far more compact group could switch out to be abruptly flooded with shoppers. one espresso shop in Portland, Oregon struggled with an increase in consumers for three months, when it promoted shut to 1,000 Groupons on the 1 working day it was offered, in accordance to one particular report. In reaction to similar problems, Groupon officers position out that 'deal' subscriptions should to be capped in development to a wise number.
