ANNUAL REPORT the Catholic Community Foundation, Inc FY 2015ANNUAL REPORT The Catholic Community Foundation, Inc. was created to provide long-term financial stability for charitable, religious and educational programs and agencies within the Archdiocese of Indianapolis. The goal of the non-profit foundation is to translate charitable passions into action in service of Catholic ministries. It is guided by archdiocesan spiritual leadership and managed by a board of trustees, composed of lay professionals who serve as trustees for a variety of funds that benefit specific parishes, Catholic schools and agencies throughout central and southern Indiana. The Catholic Community Foundation has helped set up more than 450 funds in the legacy planning process for people throughout the archdiocese. Planned giving can be as simple as including a bequest provision in a will, naming Catholic Charities or a ministry of the donor’s choosing as a beneficiary of a retirement plan or life insurance policy, establishing an endowment as a permanent fund to remember a loved one or benefit a ministry, or a one-time gift of specific assets that continues in perpetuity. Funds entrusted to the Foundation are provided to ministries for purposes originally determined by the applying ministry or individual donor. The Catholic Community Foundation has been an exceptional steward of the assets it has been entrusted with and is dedicated to helping others plan and meet their charitable goals and objectives.

The Foundation’s net assets continue to increase year after year, and we continue to distribute millions of dollars annually through endowments, scholarships and other funds that are fulfilling the wishes of our Catholic friends and family members throughout central and southern Indiana and helping so many parishes and schools in their ministry work. We are fortunate that, each year, we continue to increase the number of endowments and more people choose the Catholic Community Foundation to steward their gifts. Today, 451 funds – 17 more than last year – support dozens of ministries in our archdiocese, ranging from those created by parishes for ministry work, school expansions and cemetery care, to those established by Catholic agencies for ministries that feed, clothe, shelter and care for those most in need. Additional funds established by individuals are making a significant impact on providing tuition assistance for our youth attending Catholic schools, education support for our seminarians and their formation, financial support for young adults wishing to pursue mission work, and many other areas of ministry and services that can now be supported with permanent funds for generations to come. The Foundation’s net assets are more than $165 million in the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2015. Nearly $7.8 million was distributed to parishes, schools, cemeteries, and Catholic agencies over the past year. Since its inception in 1987, the Catholic Community Foundation has dispensed more than $98 million from endowments for ministry. This year, the Catholic Community Foundation is taking steps to raise its visibility in our parishes and communities throughout Indiana and educate on the variety of choices available in legacy planning. Options like establishing endowments, donor-advised funds, charitable gift annuities, charitable trusts, and the use of wills or life insurance to remember your parish, school or other ministry programs are just a few ways the Foundation staff can help you determine what is best for you and your family. For the many people who have been proactive in their legacy planning and whose funds are presented in this annual report, I am deeply grateful for your confidence in the Foundation and for remembering the Church as you share the many blessings God has given you. My gratitude goes also to those who will take the important step of planning for the future during this coming year and will entrust the Catholic Community Foundation to oversee your legacy. May God bless you! Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Joseph W. Tobin, C.Ss.R.

  • Chapter 2 the Building Years Continue
    Chapter 2 The Building Years Continue Planning for a new church building involved organization, effort, and the sacrifice of the whole parish family. In the fall of 1895, Rev. P. Ulric Petri, O.F.M., Pastor, canvassed the entire parish to solicit subscriptions. He found the majority favoring the building of a new church and willing to contribute according to their means. It was found that within three years, the congregation would have on hand $7,000. In 1896, “St. Joseph’s Parish Building Society” was organized with a membership of 28. The building committee included: Rev. P. Ulric Petri, O.F.M., Simon Hirner, B. Hermesmeyer, Clement Kroeger, and Dr. J. J. Nelson. The Society held a meeting the third Sunday of each month. It was decided that each member of the parish should pay twenty-five cents monthly. Fund raisers were undertaken in order to raise money to construct a new church. The church continued to grow. In an 1897 census the parish consisted of 77 families with 364 members in all. There were 66 males between the ages of 21-52 that owned their own houses. 56 members contributed to the support of the church, and 36 children were enrolled in the parochial school. In 1898 when Archbishop Kain came to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation, he congratulated the parish upon the progress made in raising funds and expressed his wish to soon see the new structure. The Venerable Brothers Adrian Wewer and Leonard Darscheid, O.F.M. designed the plans for the new church in 1898.

A call went out for volunteers to conduct tours of the Basilica. It was felt tours were the best process in the promotion of St. Mary’s Basilica. I expressed interest in the project and started to develop the scope of such tours. The following is my study document developed in support of this effort. It was developed as a reference guide to the person conducting the tour and contains more information than would be presented during a tour of the facility. I have discovered that it does not answer all the questions that visitors may present. I must admit that while preparing this reference, I greatly improved my understanding of the traditions and beauty of “the” Church. My efforts have only raised more questions than developing answers. Under no circumstance is this to be considered original work. It is a cut and paste of many publications available in the church library, internet, and the provinces of Sacred Heart and Saint Barbara.

Congressus is a meeting held every three years after a Provincial chapter to make friar assignments. Historically participants are the incoming administration, the outgoing Provincial Minister, and the General Visitor. Because of COVID-19, the Congressus looked different than years past but very standard for the new norm of 2020. Friars were separated 6 feet apart, wearing face masks, and connected via video chat to discuss the province's future In a first for the province, the new leadership's oath of office was live-streamed for friars and followers on social media to view and participate.

A THESIS Submitted to the Faculty of the Creighton University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Philosophy in the Department of History OMAHA, 1935 ACKNOWLEDGMENT The writer wishes to express her gratitude to all who have aided in the preparation of this work, especially to the Polish Priests of Omaha for the valuable oral information and complete access to aJ.1 records and books in their possession, and to Dr. P. Raymond Nielson of Creighton University for his helpful suggestions and criticisms in the writing of this thesis. Thesis Approved By f ! fay. _Major Advi ser I. INTRODUCTION 1.

The first is marked by no consider­ able influx, but by scattered individuals rescued from oblivion by some personal distinction or some touch of the picturesque. The list is headed by John of Eolno who is said to have commanded a vessel from Danzig and to have discovered the Labrador mainland sixteen years before Co- 1 lumbus. The American Revolution brought from Poland the national hero, Kosciuszko, together with Pulaski, who died at Savannah, and Niemcewicz the biographer of Washington.
