    OKLAHOMA CATHOLICISM: THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF FRENCH MONASTIC FOUNDATIONS By SAMUEL GRAYSON LEE JENNINGS Bachelor of Arts in History Southwestern Oklahoma State University Weatherford, Oklahoma 2009 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2016 OKLAHOMA CATHOLICISM: THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF FRENCH MONASTIC FOUNDATIONS Thesis Approved: Michael Logan Thesis Chair Laura Belmonte Joseph Byrnes ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For Mark Bachmann and Benet Exton. iii Acknowledgements reflect the views of the author and are not endorsed by committee members or Oklahoma State University. Name: SAMUEL GRAYSON LEE JENNINGS Date of Degree: DECEMBER 2016 Title of Study: OKLAHOMA CATHOLICISM: THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF FRENCH MONASTIC FOUNDATIONS Major Field: HISTORY Abstract: Oklahoma Catholicism: the Contributions of French Monastic Foundations focuses on the transmission of French monastic culture to the United States. After suffering the closure of monasteries during the French Revolution and subsequent Napoleonic Era, the Benedictines enjoyed a renaissance during the reign of King Louis- Phillipe that extended through the twentieth century. One of the primary animating features of the resurgent Benedictines was an enthusiasm for establishing new monasteries around the world in cultures very different from their own. Of these new monasteries, two opened in what is now Oklahoma: Sacred Heart Abbey and Clear Creek Abbey. How did two French monasteries end up in Oklahoma while there were no other such monasteries in the United States? In both cases, Oklahoma attracted the missionary- monks with a unique combination of a hospitable culture, a disenfranchised minority population to minister to, cheap land, and anonymity from local ecclesial authority.
