Can anyone give me latin/catholic phrases that are under 10 characters (including spaces)? I want one engraved on my class ring. Thanks!
 
SEMPER UBI SUB UBI

Oh well…too long…but it’s hilarious!

-ACEGC
 
PAX DOMINI (Peace of the Lord) - close, 11 chars

AGNUS DEI (Lamb of God) - 9 chars
 
“Agnus Dei” Lamb of God
“Ave Maria” Hail Mary
“Benedic” Bless Us
“PaxChristi” Peace of Christ (11 with a space)

There aren’t many to choose from. You might also choose a bible verse that has particular meaning to you. Most of the Book names can be shortened so your character requirement could be met.

I applaud you for looking for something of your faith to put on your class ring. :clapping:
 
Ad majora “toward greater success”. Not Catholic but quite appropriate for an end of school ring.

BTW I think that you can also use the spelling Ad maiora
 
Is it "under 10" or “10 and under”??
Please forgive my confusion.

If it is “10 and under”…here is one that I love…and the man who bore it…with heroic virtue"

Hope this is helpful.

Totus Tuus


**[Updated: 03.04.2001] **
**“Totus Tuus. This phrase is not only an expression of piety, or simply an expression of devotion. It is more. During the Second World War, while I was employed as a factory worker, I came to be attracted to Marian devotion. At first, it had seemed to me that I should distance myself a bit from the Marian devotion of my childhood, in order to focus more on Christ. Thanks to Saint Louis of Montfort, I came to understand that true devotion to the Mother of God is actually Christocentric, indeed, it is very profoundly rooted in the Mystery of the Blessed Trinity, and the mysteries of the Incarnation and Redemption”. **

Totus Tuus
was Pope John Paul II’s apostolic motto. It is a Latin phrase meaning “totally yours” and expressed his personal Consecration to Mary based on the spiritual approach of Saint Louis de Montfort and the Mariology in his works.[1] The pontiff explained the meaning further in his book Crossing the Threshold of Hope where he defines it as not only an expression of piety, or simply an expression of devotion and that it is deeply rooted in the Mystery of the Blessed Trinity.[2]

Coat of arms of John Paul II, with the Marian Cross

According to his Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae he borrowed the motto from the Marian consecrating prayer found in the book True Devotion to Mary by Saint Louis de Montfort. The complete text of the prayer in Latin is: “Totus tuus ego sum, et omnia mea tua sunt” (“I am all yours, and all that I have is yours”). Pope John Paul II once recalled how as a young seminarian he “read and reread many times and with great spiritual profit” some writings of Saint Louis de Montfort and that:
“Then I understood that I could not exclude the Lord’s Mother from my life without neglecting the will of God-Trinity”[3]In 1987, Henryk Górecki composed a choral piece (Totus Tuus Op. 60) to celebrate Pope John Paul II’s third pilgrimage to his native Poland that summer.[4]

Totus Tuus is a beautiful one. Be advised it only works for a guy. If a young lady were to want the same sentiment, it would be “Tota Tua.”

In hoc signo vinces…nope - too many characters.

Dona nobis pacem…nope.

Gospa Mir…hmmm - it’s not Latin but it means Queen of Peace. 9 characters.

Laus tibi Domine…nope.

Ora pro nobis…nope.

IC XC NIKA…There it is!!! It’s Greek but it should work. 10 characters.
 
Here are a fiew that I’ve remembered.

“Quo Primum,” Pope Pius V’s famous bull which instituted the Tridentine Mass, now known as the Extraordinary Form.

“Novus Ordo,” another name for the Ordinary Form of the Mass.

“Vivat Papa,” long live the Pope, literally may the Pope live.

“Mater Dei,” Mother of God.

“Adoremus,” let us adore him.

“O Me Iesu,” or “O Mi Jesu,” the beginning of the Fatima Decade Prayer.

“Miserere,” have mersy.

And who can forget, “Benedictus,” the name of our current Pope, which means blessed, and which is also the second part of the Sanctus in the Mass.
