His idea was to est. January 1996 help Catholic laypeople fulfill their baptismal promises and be able to live their dedication to the Church in an organized structure, supported by fraternity and prayer. Contacts The legionaries first started out by visiting hospitals, but they were soon active among the most destitute, notably among Dublin prostitutes. Frank Duff subsequently laid down the system of Ron Jimenez (916) 424-4313 the Legion in the Handbook of the Legion of Mary in 1928. Ed Rogala (916) 456-6768 The Legion of Mary soon spread from Ireland to other countries and continents. At first, the Legion often met with mistrust due to its dedication to lay apostolate which was unusual for the time. Only after Pope Pius XI expressed praise for the Legion in 1931, could such mistrust be quelled. Meeting Dates and Times Most prominent for spreading the Legion was the Irish legionary Venerable Edel Mary Quinn for her activities in Africa during the 1930s and 40s.

The praesidium, usually a group of 4-20 members, meets weekly in its parish. The Curia is the next level up, and one Curia supervises several Prae- sidia. The next level is the Comitium, which is in charge of several Curiae, usually over an area like a medium city or a part of a province. The following level is the Regia, in charge of larger territories like a province or state (in the U.S. and Brazil). The Senatus is the next highest level, Inside this issue: and it generally has control over the Regiae in a very large area, usually a country or very large territory. The Concilium is the highest level. It has its seat in Dublin, Ireland, and has control over all of the Legion. Legion of Mary 1 Each level of the Legion of Mary has the same officers: The President, the Vice President, the Secretary, the Treasurer, and the Spiritual director.

His 916.704.1105 Hollywood Knights Page 3 Insurance Corner DON'T ASSUME YOU CAN'T AFFORD DI One of the biggest mistakes you can make regarding disability insurance is to assume you can't afford it or you won't qualify. Before you make that assumption, do some basic research and apply for coverage through the Knights of Co- lumbus. The Order's Income Armor product gives you options that can help you fit this critical protection into your risk management budget. For example, here are 2 ways you can reduce your premium: 1. Choose a 2-year or 5-year maximum benefit period. Depending on your age, the best option is probably a policy that pays benefits until you reach age 67. But a 2-year or 5-year maximum benefit period would cover many types of partial or total disabilities you might encounter in your working life. 2. Choose a longer elimination period. An elimination period is the number of days a total disability must exist before benefits begin to accrue. Typical elimination periods are 90, or 180 days. Choosing a longer elimination period low- ers the policy's premium. But be sure you have enough set aside in the contingency fund of your business to ac- count for the longer gap. As your professional insurance agent, running a small business and the challenges of risk management are two of my specialties. Let's talk about how to protect your business income, you retirement needs, and your family's financial fu- ture. Fraternally yours, Justin Tanjuaquio, FICF (916) 726-0981 CA LIC 0C46842 [email protected] St. Robert Ministry Our Legion of Mary Saint Robert has their very own Legion of Mary praesidium dedicated to honoring and serving the ministry of Our Lady. They currently meet on Thursday evenings at the Mercy-St. Louis Social Center. All members dedicate their time and prayer for the intentions of Mary, Mother of God and how those intentions can best minister to the Saint Robert community. Their allegiance is to Our Lady and the Holy Spirit.

In fact, people should be wary of superficial ethical practices that “are adopted primarily as a marketing device, without any effect on relationships inside and outside the business itself,” and without promoting justice and the common good, said Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican’s secretary of state.

A LETTER FROM OUR PASTOR Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Last Thursday we began the month of October. The Church, as you know, dedicates October as the month of the Holy Rosary. This dedication centers on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary which we will celebrate on Wednesday, the 7th. This feast commemorates the victory of the Christian fleet over Ottoman Muslims at the naval Battle of Lepanto on October 7, 1571. This victory prevented an Ottoman control of the entire Mediterranean Sea and an Islamic invasion of Christian Europe. Pope St. Pius V (1504-1572), seeing this event through the lens of faith, unhesitatingly attributed the victory to the power of the Rosary more than the cannons and the bravery of the Christian soldiers who fought there.

O'NEILL VATICAN CITY - (NC) - Michelan- gelo's masterpiece, the Pieta, severely damaged by a hammer-wielding Hungarian will be restored as faithfully as possible to its original beauty but will remain forever flawed. The 6,700-pound statue carved from a single block of white Cararra marble was smashed by several hammer blows shortly before noon Pentecost Sunday, May 20, in its side chapel in St. Peter's Basilica. The statue, portraying the sorrowing Virgin holding the limp, dead body of Christ, is world famous and considered perhaps the most valued treasure of the Vatican. ACCORDING to visitors in the church at the time, a bearded man leaped over a low marble railing of the chapel, jumped on a table in front of the statue and began flailing away with a mason's hammer. In the rain of blows on the figure, of the Virgin the (continued on page 21) CHE PIETA," by Michelangelo, is shown left in 1964 as it was photographed during »e New York World's Fair.

    The Walls of the Confessions: Neo-Romanesque Architecture, Nationalism, and Religious Identity in the Kaiserreich by Annah Krieg B.A., Lawrence University, 2001 M.A., University of Pittsburgh, 2004 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The School of Art and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2010 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Annah Krieg It was defended on April 2, 2010 and approved by Christopher Drew Armstrong, Director of Architectural Studies and Assistant Professor, History of Art and Architecture Paul Jaskot, Professor, Art History , DePaul University Kirk Savage, Professor and Chair, History of Art and Architecture Terry Smith, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Contemporary Art History and Theory, History of Art and Architecture Dissertation Advisor: Barbara McCloskey, Associate Professor, History of Art and Architecture ii The Walls of the Confessions: Neo-Romanesque Architecture, Nationalism, and Religious Identity in the Kaiserreich Annah Krieg, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2010 Scholars traditionally understand neo-Romanesque architecture as a stylistic manifestation of the homogenizing and nationalizing impulse of the Kaiserreich. Images of fortress-like office buildings and public halls with imposing facades of rusticated stone dominate our view of neo-Romanesque architecture from the Kaiserreich (1871-1918). The three religious buildings at the core of this study - Edwin Oppler’s New Synagogue in Breslau (1866-1872), Christoph Hehl’s Catholic Rosary Church in Berlin-Steglitz (1899-1900), and Friedrich Adler’s Protestant Church of the Redeemer in Jerusalem (1893-1898) – offer compelling counter- examples of the ways in which religious groups, especially those that were local minorities, adapted the dominant neo-Romanesque style to their own particular quest towards distinctive assimilation in an increasingly complex, national, modern society.
