Festa di Santa Chiara (Feast of St. Clare), patron of television, 2011
Assisi is prepared, as every year, to celebrate the Festa di S. Chiara (Feast of St. Clare), patron of television. The August 11th, 2011 at the St. Clare's Basilica.
In the folk tradition are two the most famous stories about the life of St. Clare. The first relates that she defends Assisi from Saracen troops under the command of Frederick II, blinded them, with the exposure of the monstrance outside the walls of the convent.
But it is the second story to make the saint patron of television and telecommunications. Tradition has it that one Christmas Eve Claire was ill and bedridden, unable to follow the Mass celebrated by St. Francis. And, on the bed, had a vision of the Mass.
In addition, the Feast of St. Clare this year will be the culmination of the celebrations for the 800 years of Consecration of the Saint.
