Greetings Patrons and Friends,
Yesterday was the feast day of St. Thomas Aquinas, considered one of the Catholic Church’s greatest theologians. In the fresco painting in the Gallery of the Candelabra in the Vatican Museums, we see St. Thomas kneeling as he offers his works, and the response from God in the words: BENE SCRIPSISTI DE ME THOMA: “You wrote well of me, Thomas”.
(Ludwig Seitz 1844-1908)
The January cover of Magnificat features another painting in the Vatican of St Thomas. This one is by the domenican artist Fra Angelico and it is in the Niccoline Chapel.

This is an extremely rare opportunity to gain access to one of the most exclusive and off-limits room of the Vatican Museums and Apostolic Palace. You most certainly will not want to miss out! In fact, it’s not too late to register. Over 165 Patrons are already participating and enjoying our content.

To promote the second semester, we created a short trailer.
Please share it with a friend.
