    CATHOLICS IN AMERICA A HISTORY 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Patrick W Carey | 9780742562332 | | | | | Catholics in America A History 1st edition PDF Book Enlarge cover. In order to better address challenges posed by World War I, the American Catholic hierarchy in chose to meet collectively for the first time since Penn imposed restrictions on the rights of Catholics. Carey details the rich and varied involvement Roman Catholics have had in American political, cultural, and family life. Though a majority of Catholics have agreed with the hierarchy in their insistence on legal protection of the unborn, some—including prominent politicians—have not, leading to perennial controversies concerning the responsibilities of Catholics in American public life. Churches that were not established were tolerated and governed themselves; they functioned with private funds. The Society of Jesus owned a large number of slaves who worked on the community's farms. Catholics in revolutionary America tended to be wealthy, English speaking, and more focused on private devotions than on public displays of their faith. The mandate of the newly formed organization included the promotion of Catholic participation in the war, through chaplains, literature, and care for the morale of the troops, as well as for the first time lobbying for Catholic interests in the nation's capital. The Church stands by its doctrines on sexual intercourse as defined by the Natural law : intercourse must at once be both the renewal of the consummation of marriage and open to procreation. Catholics became prominent in the officer corps, including over fifty generals and a half-dozen admirals.

  • Chapter One the Jesuit Heritage in Maine
    CHAPTER ONE THE JESUIT HERITAGE IN MAINE The presence of the Jesuits in the Pine Tree State not only antedates their arrival in any of the remaining New England States but it precedes the establishment of the Diocese of Portland on 29 July 1853 by almost 250years. In surveying the Jesuit connection with the State of Maine before and after the Diocese of Portland came into existence, it will be helpful to study the early period of the seventeenth and eighteenth cen­ turies when the Jesuits served the Indians of Maine, the modem period of the nineteenth century when the Jesuits strengthened the foundations of the Catholic Church in Maine, and the contemporary period of the twentieth century when the Jesuits continue their service to the people of Maine. I The coming of the Jesuits to Maine began when Father Pierre Biard, a French Jesuit, traveled the rivers of the St. John, St. Croix, Penobscot and Kennebec in the summer and fall of 1611. As far back as 1604, Samuel de Champlain, a friend of the Jesuits in later years at Quebec, had explored the coast of Maine and helped to establish the first European colony on St. Croix Island. Father Biard's journey led him not only to this French settlement but to Bangor, where he hoped to establish a mission; to Castine, where he cared for a sick warrior of the Etchemins; and to islands, like Matinicus and Monhegan, where he helped to plant the Holy Cross, the Christian symbof that he used to instruct the Indians. His ministry to the Indians of Maine was historic because he offered the first recorded Mass in New England on an island, presumably Swan Island, near the entrance of the Kennebec River on November 1st.

  • Celebrating the Contributions of Black Catholics
    Celebrating the contributions of Black Catholics February’s celebration of Black History Month in the United States traces its roots back to the 1920s, but it attained more formal recognition in the 1970s, as is obvious with President Gerald R. Ford’s 1976 Bicentennial Year message about its importance. Ford described Black History Month as an occasion to “seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.” Despite the many accomplishments of Black History Month’s goals, its often secular narrative forgets the contributions of Black Catholics. In recognition of that, the National Black Catholic Clergy Caucus of the United States began observing November as national Black Catholic History Month nearly 30 years ago. Nonetheless, in order to promote awareness of the accomplishments of all Black Americans, it is important to promote an awareness of some of the many Catholic individuals who have achieved greatness in the face of racism’s plight — and in many cases the supreme greatness of holiness. No national celebration of Black History Month would be complete without including these Catholic stories — or the countless stories of Black Catholics left untold. Michael R.
