Larry Kulick and former Greensburg Bishop Edward Malesic with St. Joe students Alexis Shirley and Jake Hayes in 2016. The four years that the next bishop of the Diocese of Greensburg spent at a Catholic high school in the Diocese of Pittsburgh proved to be important steps in his journey of faith. “Saint Joseph High School played an instrumental role in forming me,” bishop-elect Larry Kulick told The Pittsburgh Catholic. “I received a solid education and experienced a healthy, realistic dimension of the faith in all aspects of my high school life at Saint Joe’s.” Pope Francis on December 18 named Monsignor Kulick as the sixth bishop of the Greensburg diocese. He will be ordained and ocially installed on February 11. Principal Beverly Kaniecki taught mathematics to the future bishop, who graduated from the Natrona Heights high school in 1984. “You knew he was somebody special, always a planner, and creative, very much like he is today,” she said. “As a senior he brought back the May crowning and convinced a classmate to dress up as the Blessed Mother. https://pittsburghcatholic.org/?format=print&post-type=post&order-date=desc&order-menu=asc&statuses%5B%5D=publish&taxonomies%5Btags%5D%5B%5D=… 1/17 1/1/2021 https://pittsburghcatholic.org/?format=print&post-type=post&order-date=desc&order-menu=asc&statuses%5B%5D=publish&taxonomies%5Btags%5D… “He also recommended taking our graduation to the Diocese of Greensburg and asking the bishop to be the principal celebrant.

  • A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930
    Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences by Debra K. Burgess B.A. University of Cincinnati June 2012 M.A. University of Cincinnati April 2014 Committee Chair: Mark A. Raider, Ph.D. 24:11 Abstract Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 by Debra K. Burgess Child welfare programs in the United States have their foundation in the religious traditions brought to the country up through the late nineteenth century by immigrants from many European nations. These programs were sometimes managed within the auspices of organized religious institutions but were also found among the ad hoc efforts of religiously- motivated individuals. This study analyzes how the religious traditions of Catholicism, Judaism, and Protestantism established and maintained institutions of all sizes along the lines of faith- based dogma and their relationship to American cultural influences in the Midwest cities of Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh during the period of 1880-1930. These influences included: the close ties between (or constructive indifference exhibited by) the secular and sectarian stakeholders involved in child-welfare efforts, the daily needs of children of immigrants orphaned by parental disease, death, or desertion, and the rising influence of social welfare professionals and proponents of the foster care system.

  • Carlow University Magazine, Fall-Winter 2019
    MAGAZINE WINTER 2019 2 CARLOW UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE Letter from the PRESIDENT Dear Friends, It’s often said that everything old is new again. So it is at Carlow University as we celebrate, in ways large and small, our 90th anniversary, while always looking toward the future to how our students will impact the world! With the Class of 2023 newly arrived on campus, we kicked off our anniversary celebrations in September with a campus-wide community food-packing event. Students, faculty and staff from the university and The Campus Laboratory School gathered in St. Joseph’s Hall and packaged more than 20,000 meals for the hungry in Burkina Faso, West Africa, a nation plagued by droughts, flooding and political unrest. The event was energizing for everyone, paying homage to our founders, the Sisters of Mercy, while addressing a current, real-world problem. We continue to hold fast to the values that were embedded in the university’s culture in 1929. They have not changed; indeed, we find them more relevant than ever. Mercy, hospitality, service, discovery and the sacredness of creation. These are the values that call us to serve the poor, welcome the stranger, care for the sick, esteem learning and respect the dignity of all persons. In the early months of 2019, a team of staff, faculty, trustees and students began the work of developing the university’s next strategic plan. It was completed and approved by our board in October. In the plan, The Carlow Commitment, we hold fast to our mission, while lighting the fire for the vision that will carry us forward in a time of rapid and unprecedented change.

  • As Paone Continued in Ministry, He Did So with Approval from the Diocese in Spite of The
    As Paone continued in ministry, he did so with approval from the Diocese in spite of the Diocese's knowledge that Paone was a child molester. The aforementioned period of time encompassed the entire tenure of Bishop Anthony Bevilacqua from October 1983 to February 1988. Diocesan records, obtained by the Grand Jury, show the least amount of internal correspondence regarding Paone during that time. The Grand Jury concluded that Bevilacqua left Paone to his ministries and provided little to no oversight. While the lack of meaningful supervision is consistent with the conduct of other Bishops of Pittsburgh and detailed herein, a relevant observation specific to Bevilacqua himself is the apparent lack of documentation of any of Paone' s activities in contrast to the internal documentation executed by the other Bishops. On June 30, 1989, Bishop Donald Wuerl sent a letter to the Vatican with respect to several diocesan priests who had recently been accused of sexually abusing children and whose cases had generated significant publicity. In the letter, Wuerl documented his diocesan policies for sexual abuse and stated his responsibility as Bishop was to determine the course of action in these cases. Wuerl wrote that Catholic parishioners had a right to know whether a priest accused of such crimes had been reassigned to their parish. Further, Wuerl advised that due to the scandal caused by these priests, he initiated a review of any previous cases of diocesan priests who had been accused of "pedophilic activities" with minors. Wuerl warned the

Are you fully committed to growing in a relationship with Jesus, or do you have one foot in and one foot out the door? The honest answer for most of us is some- where in between. There is always room to improve in our relationship with the Lord, and we know that Jesus is constantly inviting us closer to him. He thirsts for our hearts – the hearts of everyone. During Advent, we have an opportunity for a spiritual “reset.” In waiting for December 24, invest your relationship with the Lord Jesus. The following are six suggestions as ways to help each of us grow more deeply in relationship with Christ. Make the most of this Advent season, and encourage others to do the same. Go to confession. Part of preparing our hearts to welcome the Lord means to repent. See the bulletin or go online to see when confessions are schedule in this and any parish. Enter the Word through “lexio divina.” This is a way to listen to God’s voice through Scripture.

  • Round Table Proceedings, 2015
    1 CARLOW ROUNDTABLE PROCEEDINGS THE CARLOW UNIVERSITY PRESS 2 3 CARLOW ROUNDTABLE 2015 PROCEEDINGS THE CARLOW UNIVERSITY PRESS 4 Mercy: The Story Continues THE SIXTH CARLOW ROUNDTABLE First time visitors to Ireland often speak of Irish history as something wholly experienced as they travel and explore the landscape and culture of Ireland. Indeed, Irish history is beautifully woven among facts, myths, legends, and a bit of enchantment that ties it all together. In May of 2015 as Mercy colleagues and scholars gathered together for the Sixth Roundtable in Catherine’s House, magician Kevin Spencer, artist Kyle Holbrook, and Roundtable colleague Susan O’Rourke opened the conference by introducing their groundbreaking work of using a world of magic and Illusion, and creative art, to help the most vulnerable students in schools. Through their passionate work, the common thread of the mission and work of Mercy in higher education was revealed. The story of the Sisters of Mercy is woven into the rich culture and History of Ireland. Along our journey, we learned about the historical importance of the work of the Sisters of Mercy in education in Northern Ireland as we visited Belfast and engaged in conversation with Rooney Scholar and Carlow adjunct, Marie Martin, her husband Joe Martin, and Molly Onufer, a graduate student at Trinity College. As each colleague experienced the story, presented, and engaged in conversation, the common thread of Mercy wove its own type of enchantment, binding us all as colleagues engaged in this work of Mercy. The following papers are examples of the rich and significant work of the Sixth Carlow University Roundtable.
