Red Tuesday Changes the Way KU Students Think About Their Faith by JILL RAGAR ESFELD WWW.THELEAVEN.COM | NEWSPAPER OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF KANSAS CITY IN KANSAS | VOL. 30, NO. 35 MAY 1, 2009 JAYHAWKER EVANGELIZATION Red Tuesday changes the way KU students think about their faith BY JILL RAGAR ESFELD AWRENCE — On a recent Tuesday, University of Kansas freshman Leann Tracy was racing across campus so as not to be late for her L art class. As she blazed down the sidewalk in a flash of red, no one could miss the large block letters on the back of her shirt that spelled out “Ask me why I’m Catholic.” Tracy wears the shirt every Tuesday. When asked why, her answer is unequivocal: “Because it’s starting a revolution!” And she’s right. KU is indeed undergoing a revolution of sorts – Catholic students are tak - ing their message to the streets. In this, a formidably secular environment, Catholic students find their faith challenged on all sorts of fronts. But now there is a sanc - tuary, a home base, where they can turn for answers to the many questions college classes — and even college life — give rise to. It’s the Red Tuesday table hosted by the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center, and it’s changing the way KU students think about faith, God, salvation, their world, their future and Catholicism.

  • Mary Ward Lecture February 11Th 2009 Cambridge Divinity
    MARY WARD LECTURE FEBRUARY 11TH 2009 CAMBRIDGE DIVINITY SCHOOL On the feast of the Annunciation, 1586 Margaret Clitherow, a butcher’s wife of York, suffered the horrific peine forte et dure of being crushed to death for harbouring a Catholic priest. This barbaric punishment was the legal sanction imposed on those who refused to testify during trial. Margaret’s silence was both a denial that she was guilty of any crime and an attempt to save her family and neighbours from having to testify. Though silent in death, Margaret’s life story resounded throughout the recusant Catholic community and beyond, told by John Mush, a priest whom she had sheltered. Mush was her spiritual director and later that of Mary Ward, whose cousin Francis Ingleby, another priest sheltered by Margaret Clitherow, died a martyr’s death on the Knavesmire in York in June of the same year. This web of connections was part of an extended network of recusant women and men whose enforced silence was broken by the irrepressible force of story and memory. This study looks at the theme of silence in the life of Mary Ward and those who sought to keep her story alive. Positively, contemplative silence operated as the ground of Mary’s remarkable vocation. Negatively, it was imposed on her and on her memory long after her death by a church that failed to understand the specific and universal value of that vocation. It stems from a more general silence imposed historically on women both in the church and in society as a whole.

  • Sandwiching in History Villa Marre 1321 Scott Street, Little Rock July 12, 2013 By: Rachel Silva
    1 Sandwiching in History Villa Marre 1321 Scott Street, Little Rock July 12, 2013 By: Rachel Silva Villa Marre, 1321 Scott St., Little Rock Villa Marre’s parquet floor Intro Hi, my name is Rachel Silva, and I work for the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program. Welcome to the “Sandwiching in History” tour of the Villa Marre! I’d like to thank RWL Investments and events coordinator AJ Hughes for allowing us to see this wonderful property today. The Angelo and Jennie Marre House, better known as the Villa Marre, was built in 1881-1882 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 because it is a rare example of the Second Empire style of architecture in Little Rock, and because of its association with notable figures in Arkansas history. Scott Street as a desirable address… Little Rock experienced a post-Civil War building boom, and the city expanded to the south and west of the oldest residential neighborhood (MacArthur Park). Scott Street has been described as “the center of elegant living in nineteenth 2 century Little Rock.” But the Marres had a difficult time fitting into Little Rock’s elite society. Although they built a showplace on one of the nicest streets in town, they were Italian, they were Catholic, and they both had a checkered past. Angelo & Jennie Marre Angelo Marre was born on September 11, 1842, in Borzonasca, Italy. He arrived in the United States when he was 12 years old, and his family settled in Memphis (1854). Angelo and his two older brothers, James and John, worked together in various Memphis saloons.
