Back cover: Lourdes Candlelight Procession–May 4, 2012 ORDER OF MALTA-FEDERAL ASSOCIATION, USA 1 President’s Message t gives me great pleasure to present to you the 2012 Annual Report of the Federal Association of the Order of Malta. It was a year of both change and solid advancement for our Association. This Report is designed to give you an overview of both facts and faces of the Federal Association as we serve Our Lords the Poor and the Sick in many Iwonderful ways. Just as the Order lives one week each year “in convent” during the Pilgrimage at Lourdes, we work together “in community” during the rest of the year with our fellow dames, knights, chaplains, candidates, auxiliaries, spouses and friends. It is not too much to say that it is a foretaste of the Kingdom of Heaven. To paraphrase Msgr. Brouwet, the new Bishop of Tarbes and Lourdes, the salvation to which we are called is not an individual salvation. The fraternity between and among women and men can only be achieved in the recognition of a common paternity, that of God. Our liturgies and events: Formation Day; the Feast of St. John the Baptist; Investiture Weekend; our Healing Masses; our Mass for the Right to Life; Masses for our Deceased; our monthly Masses; our Defense of the Faith Forums; our regional activities, and most especially, the Lourdes Pilgrimage, itself, are all designed to draw us away from sepa- ration, isolation, and enclosure within ourselves. This worship and work, shoulder to shoulder, is surely the wellspring of our spirituality and ultimately of our salvation. This Report covers the structure that makes these activities possible beginning with finances and then moves on to such items as grants, membership, recognition, memorialization of We have work to do, our departed confreres, and our methods of support. It is transparent and as thorough as we can make it, but if you have questions beyond what is offered here, we shall do our best to provide you with answers. Your continued support on every level is essential to the vitality of and our motto is our the Association. The funds raised through our Annual Appeal are the very life blood of our Association. These moneys go, through the rigorous and objective distillation of our Grants mission: Defense of Committee, to many charitable projects throughout our regions, and also to support our Defense of the Faith projects through the good work of that Committee. I cannot overemphasize how the Faith and Service important it is that every Member of our Association contributes to the Annual Appeal. This next year promises to be both challenging and rewarding. We have already celebrated the to the Poor . 900th Anniversary of our Order’s papal chartering. We are the world’s oldest Christian charity by far. We have a new pope. Not too far ahead is the Order’s 5-year Vision Planning Session in Rhodes and then the Chapter General Meeting where many new Order leaders are elected. The activities of our own part of the Order are no less challenging and exciting here in our own country. We have work to do, and our motto is our mission: Defense of the Faith and Service to the Poor. I hope that you will continue your wonderful support of this mission in the year to come.

  • Annual Report 2010.Pdf
    Mission MOTHER McAULEY LIBERAL ARTS HIGH SCHOOL is a Catholic educational community committed to providing a quality secondary education for young women. In the tradition of the Sisters of Mercy and their foundress, Catherine McAuley, we prepare students to live in a complex, dynamic society by teaching them to think critically, communicate effectively, respond compassionately to the needs of their community and assume roles of Christian leadership. In partnership with parents, we empower young women to acknowledge their giftedness and to make decisions with a well-developed moral conscience. We foster an appreciation of the diversity of the global community and a quest for knowledge and excellence as life-long goals. ABOUT McAULEY A small group of Mercy Sisters arrived in Chicago in 1846, led by Frances Warde, Catherine McAuley's closest friend. Within weeks they opened a "select school" that became St. Francis Xavier Academy for Females, the first school chartered in the city of Chicago. The course of study covered primary, secondary and collegiate levels. The first building was located on Wabash Avenue between Madison and Monroe Streets. When the Chicago Fire in 1871 destroyed the original building, St. Francis Academy relocated to 29th and Wabash for a short time, then to a larger site at 49th and Cottage Grove in 1900. In the 1950's, the southwest side of Chicago needed a Catholic girls' school to serve a fast-growing population. In 1956 "the Academy" relocated once again. Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School and St. Xavier College (which is now a university) opened in the fall of 1956 to serve secondary and post secondary students respectively.
