Dear Parishioners and Visitors, As we continue to face the challenges of our “new normal,” I invite you to strengthen your faith journey with examples of people from the 20th century who faced challenges of their own. Their lives give us a chance to appreciate the different ways that faith can be lived and shared. ~Fr. Jim Thomas Frederick Price [Servant of God] Cofounder, Maryknoll (1860–1919) Thomas Frederick Price was born in 1860 in North Carolina, the child of Catholic converts. He would become the first Catholic priest ordained in that thoroughly Protestant state, a fact that helped inspire his great zeal for mission. Determined to spread the Catholic faith among his fellow “tar heels” he trudged throughout his native state, door to door, farm to farm, contenting himself to spread the faith one soul at a time. In 1910 at the Eucharistic Congress in Montreal, he met Fr. James Anthony Walsh, director of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith in Boston. Together they conceived the idea of founding a mission seminary to recruit and train American priests for overseas mission, particularly in China. At a time when the U.S. had itself only recently emerged from the status of mission territory, this was a bold plan. Never-theless, in 1911 they received support from the U.S. bishops and from Rome to establish the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America—popularly known as Maryknoll. Of the two founders, Price was the more contemplative—“the Mary to Walsh’s Martha”—who cherished a deep devotion to the Blessed Mother and St. Bernadette of Lourdes. He volunteered to serve among the first party of six priests who traveled to China in 1918, though his fragile health was not equal to the challenge. He died there after only a few months, living only to glimpse the first seeds of Maryknoll’s overseas mission. “If the Catholics in this country but did their duty to both home and foreign missions, a mighty change would take place both in ourselves and in the whole foreign-mission world.” ~ Fr. Thomas Frederick Price RECONCILIATION / CONFESSION ~ Saturday ~ 1:00pm to 2:00pm Due to the need for privacy without using an enclosed room, parishes have had to be creative in finding a suitable space for hearing confessions. We will be using the Parish Center foyer. The red front door will be propped open and a screen will be inside, between the priest and the penitent. There will be no chair or kneeler since we could not disinfect them. You simply come in, stay standing, confess, receive your penance and depart. If you see someone in the foyer, do not come up the walkway! Remain on the sidewalk (or in your car) to keep a safe distance. World Mission Sunday, October 18th, we are called to be part of the Church’s missionary efforts, supporting mission priests, religious Sisters and Brothers, and lay catechists who provide loving service to those most in need. As Catholics around the world, here at home and in the missions, gather at the Eucharist around the table of the Lord, let us pray for the Church’s worldwide missionary work and offer financial help through the Society for the Propagation of the Faith for vulnerable communities throughout Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Pacific Islands. Our Parish is seeking two positions Please spread the word or let anyone you know that may be interested to contact the Parish Center.

Involves office work (including computer tasks) and event support (i.e., parishioner meetings, sacraments) for the Coordinator of Faith Formation.

  • MARY JOSEPH ROGERS Mother Mary Joseph Rogers Founded the Maryknoll Sisters, the First American-Based Catholic Foreign Missions Society for Women
    MARY JOSEPH ROGERS Mother Mary Joseph Rogers founded the Maryknoll Sisters, the first American-based Catholic foreign missions society for women. Mary Josephine Rogers, called “Mollie” by her family, was born Oct. 27, 1882, in Roxbury, Massachusetts. After graduating from Smith College, Northampton, Massachusetts, she earned her teaching certificate. Mary taught for several years at Smith College, followed by teaching assignments in several public elementary and high schools in the Boston area. Interest in Foreign Missions Mary was deeply impacted by the flourishing Protestant Student Volunteer Movement that was sending missionaries around the world. In 1908, due to her growing interest in missionary work, she began volunteering her time to assist Father James Walsh in writing and editing the Catholic Foreign Missionary Society of America’s magazine Field Afar, now known as Maryknoll. In September 1910 at the International Eucharistic Congress in Montreal, Canada, Mary realized she shared a passion to develop a foreign missions society based in the United States with Father Walsh and Father Thomas Frederick Price. As a result of this common vision, they founded the Maryknoll Mission Movement. Mary provided assistance to the group from Boston where she had family responsibilities before finally joining them in September 1912. She was given the formal name, “Mary Joseph.” She founded a lay group of women interested in missions known as the Teresians, named after the 16th Century Spanish Catholic nun St. Teresa of Avila. In 1913, both the male and female societies moved to Ossining, New York to a farm renamed “Maryknoll.” The pope recognized the work of the Teresians in 1920, allowing the growing society to be designated as a diocesan religious congregation, officially the Foreign Mission Sisters of St.

It’s the end of March, which means the SAA conference is four months away and year-end holidays are only nine months away. “Wait!” you cry, “I’m already in the deep end of the pool and rapidly treading water.

First, let me tell you that I really am having a ball this year. It is hectic, but a ball. This year the Sisters of Providence in the Northwest are celebrating the 150th anniversary of their arrival in the Northwest and my staff and I are deep in research and preparations. Anyone who has been involved in similar anniversaries (like Father Ralph, below) is nodding knowingly. What amazes me most is the new interpretations of passages in letters that I have read hundreds of times before, the clearer connection between facts and events, and a deeper understanding of relationships. It was all there before and we thought we understood it but in our hectic planning for the sesquicentennial we are also slowing down to listen and are gaining a new understanding.

  • Missiological Reflections on the Maryknoll Centenary
    Missiological Reflections on the Maryknoll Centenary: Maryknoll Missiologists’ Colloquium, June 2011 This year Maryknoll celebrates its founding as the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America. In the early 1900s, the idea of founding a mission seminary in the United States circulated among the members of the Catholic Missionary Union. Archbishop John Farley of New York had suggested the establishment of such a seminary, and also tried to entice the Paris Foreign Mission Society to open an American branch. Finally, two diocesan priests, Fathers James Anthony Walsh and Thomas Frederick Price, having gained a mandate to create a mission seminary from the archbishops of the United States, travelled to Rome and received Pope Pius X’s permission to do so. The date was June 29, 1911, the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul. In the years since, well over a thousand Maryknoll priests and Brothers have gone on mission to dozens of countries throughout the world. Many died young in difficult missions, and not a few have shed their blood for Christ. This is a time to celebrate the glory given by Christ to His relatively young Society. The main purpose of this event, though, is not to glory in our past. We celebrate principally to fulfill the burning desire of our founders, in words enshrined over the main entrance of the Seminary building, Euntes Docete Omnes Gentes, “Go and teach all nations” (Matthew 28:19). Nearly twenty centuries after Christ gave this command, the Church, during the Second Vatican Council, again defined this as the fundamental purpose of mission, being “sent out by the Church and going forth into the whole world, to carry out the task of preaching the Gospel and planting the Church among peoples or groups who do not yet believe in Christ” (Ad Gentes, 6).

Matthew 5:7 Holding up a copy of "Hustler" magazine, former FBI agent William Kelly showed the women, most of whom are grandmothers and mothers, the color photograph of a mock crucifixion of a woman. "The biggest purchasers of these porn magazines are the 12-17 year- olds," Kelly told the audience, many of whom registered surprise at his statement. Pornography was only one of the many topics addressed by more than 200 women who attended the seventh bicnnal conference of the Florida Council of Catholic Women at the Konover Hotel in Miami Beach last week. The women from around the state also listened to experts on migrant labor, pro-life, and family life, during two days of presentations on the theme, "Peace in Today's World." Long-time crusaders against enemies of peace and morality in their Priestly balance dioceses throughout Florida, many of Father Jim Vitucci demonstrates the famous Russian squat dance which all the FCCW members agreed that until they heard a panel of experts talk at the priests learn at the seminary in case they should ever appear on television's conference, they had not been aware of "Dance Fever.'

  • The Church's Marines: Maryknollers Older, Fewer, but Still Going Strong
    The church’s Marines: Maryknollers older, fewer, but still going strong COCHABAMBA, Bolivia – Their numbers are down, their average age is up, and their last names are as likely to be Vu or Gonzalez as Kelly or O’Brien, but one thing that has not changed about Maryknoll priests and brothers in the past century is their commitment to live and work among the poor in distant lands and unfamiliar cultures. One of Maryknoll’s greatest contributions to Catholic mission has been “seeing and affirming the value and individual worth of all people and all cultures,” Father Raymond Finch, Maryknoll superior general from 1996 to 2002, told Catholic News Service. “That has been (true) from the beginning, whether it was in China or in Latin America, with indigenous cultures,” said Father Finch, 62, who currently directs the Maryknoll Mission Center in Cochabamba. “Especially seeing the contribution, the worth and the beauty in people who are on the margins and who have been hurt by society, the marginalized, the poor – that has been something that we have been blessed with.” The mission sites around the globe where Maryknoll priests and brothers work with refugees, AIDS patients, farmers, children and youth may not be what Fathers James Anthony Walsh and Thomas Frederick Price had in mind when they founded the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America in June 1911 to send missionaries to China. The first priests arrived in China in 1918, and missions in Korea followed. Political upheaval in those countries forced Maryknollers to leave for a time, and the society expanded to Latin America in 1942 and Africa in 1946.

    38 Dominicana The Story of American Catholicism. By Theodore Maynard. The Mac­ millan Co., N. Y. 1941. pp. 1-xv, 1-694 with Index and Bibl. $3.50. The history of the Catholic Church in America has not yet been written. It still awaits the genius it requires to order its var'ious lights and shadows into one balanced perspective. Such a work will be the masterpiece from some future gi :mt who will have to give the "blood, sweat and tears" of a lifetime to his work. From this, it should be quite clear that Mr. Maynard has not written The Story of American Catholicism but only his story. Literary histories need no lengthy apologies to justify their publication but they most certainly presup­ pose the most careful scrutiny of all basic, extant sources. Mr. May­ nard succumbed to the lure of the Muse and let genius wait just as long as it pleased. Perhaps if he had waited, just as many others have prudently done, there would not he any story of American Ca­ tholicism whatever. Herein lies "the rub.'' Any real criticism of Mr. Maynard's attempt must resolve this question: Is a half loaf better than none? Such a question is misleading as it does not eval­ uate quality of the fragment offered. Mr. Maynard's story of the Faith in America is without doubt one of the finest examples of belles lettres in the field of history writ­ ten by an American Catholic; the praise can be easily extended to ex­ press the just compliment that the literary excellence of his work sur­ passes any previous attempt.
