Extending greetings Don Massimo Cardamone, Maria Teresa Antonio Foreigners and beneficial. End If Bishop Antonio Ciliberti, archbishop of the city.
The book contains thirty years of Catanzaro, but not limited to, short stories, often in great detail, by Msgr. Domenico Mazzocchi (pastor of Mount Caramel from 1897 to 1908 and then to St. Teresa (Observation) until 1935, the year of his death) in a real diary, entitled "Liber parochialis" that Msgr. Cantwell has "discovered" long ago in the archives of the Parish of Mount Caramel.
'E' - said Msgr. Cantwell - a document of particular importance because the pastor had noted, with a very clear handwriting, not only on events la sua persona e la vita delle sue comunità parrocchiali, ma anche molti avvenimenti riguardanti la città di Catanzaro, la Chiesa e l’Italia. Ho così subito pensato che il Liber parochialis poteva diventare una fonte preziosa per chiunque è convinto che nella storia e forse anche nella cronaca si possa trovare tanta luce per vivere più autenticamente l’oggi. Ogni dubbio sulla importanza del documento è comunque scomparso quando, tra le annotazioni apposte sul diario da tante persone che avevano visitato la parrocchia e, perciò, soprattutto dai vescovi in occasione delle visite pastorali, ci si è imbattuti in una testimonianza di assoluto valore qual è quella di Alfonso Frangipane. L’illustre storico dell’arte, il 21 settembre 1921, scrive: “Visitando ancora una volta la Chiesa dell’Osservanza, per compilare le schede inventariali pel Catalogo delle Opere d’Arte ordinato dal Ministero dell’Istruzione, ammiro molto la cura intelligente con cui le opere pregevoli di questa chiesa sono tenute dal colto mons. Mazzocca, e l’acume storico che lo ha consigliato a compilare questo prezioso libro di memoria: della Parrocchia e della nostra epoca”.
“È stato proprio leggendo queste parole - prosegue mons. Antonio Cantisani - che ho sentito quasi come un dovere darmi da fare per pubblicare il Diario di mons. Mazzocca. E non soltanto per soddisfare una legittima curiosità: in particolar modo i catanzaresi avranno piacere di revisit places that their fathers have attended events and know that the fathers have lived in their flesh. "
In his diary, Mgr. Mazzocca has not, as they say, outspoken and not think twice to call "a little Reverend" a priest, rogue lawyer and a "double agent" who was a mayor Mason believe to vote for Giolitti and then voted Socialist. Talk about great events of history, but at the same time relates very minor details: it tells us even the number of the tomb where he had buried his father, the tone of the bells was installed in the parish church Observance and gave prizes to kids who Winners were Catechism of the race. But what is most striking is the care with which he tells us how certain documents are placed in the parish. It is precisely for this reason that the Mazzocca text can be considered a very important and credible.

Who was Bishop Mazzocca?

From the Diary shows a true character, both as citizens and as a priest. And, in fact, as a boy reveals himself as well type "determined". He was born July 25, 1867 in Catanzaro by Achilles, bookbinder, and Teresa Rizzo, who were always bound by deep affection. He grew up around the parish, standing out for its vitality, but also for his piety. Remember with gratitude his First Communion received by the can. Don Luis D'Elia in the month of the Rosary in 1876, speaking later as the "wedding" with the Lord. Feel called to be a priest, would soon enter the diocesan seminary, which had recently been raised by Msgr. Bernard M. De Rice (1883-1900). Here he developed his choice, which he wanted to be faithful at all costs. An uncle, a Freemason, he wanted to distract from the purpose of becoming a priest, but he asked Monsignor De Riso, bishop of the time, you can take courses in theology in Rome where he was ordained priest 21 September 1890.
