EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, we behold the enigmatic figure of Marie-Théodore Ratisbonne (1802-1884), a French priest and brother to the renowned visionary and convert, Marie-Alphonsine Danil Ghattas. Born into a Jewish family in Strasbourg, Ratisbonne's life took an unexpected turn when, at the age of 35, he experienced a profound conversion to Christianity after a series of mystical visions. The photograph captures Ratisbonne in the later years of his life, with a serene expression that belies the tumultuous journey that led him to the priesthood. Dressed in the simple robes of a religious brother, he gazes intently into the distance, as if lost in thought or deep reflection. Ratisbonne's conversion was not only a personal transformation but also a catalyst for the founding of the Sisters of the Most Holy Savior, a religious community dedicated to the education and care of girls in the Middle East. His sister, Marie-Alphonsine, played a central role in the establishment of the order, which continues to thrive to this day. Despite his humble beginnings and unassuming appearance, Ratisbonne's impact on the Catholic Church and the world was significant. His life story is a testament to the power of faith and the transformative effect that spiritual experiences can have on individuals and communities. This photograph offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable man whose legacy continues to inspire and challenge us. Marie-Théodore Ratisbonne's story is a powerful reminder of the capacity for change and the enduring power of the human spirit.
