  • The Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System
    THE FRANCISCAN MISSIONARIES OF OUR LADY HEALTH SYSTEM A BRIEF HISTORY TABLE OF CONTENTS Prologue Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Brief History The Sisters Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System The Beginning Years St. Francis Our Lady of the Lake Our Lady of Lourdes The Growth Years St. Francis Our Lady of the Lake Our Lady of Lourdes The Development of a Corporate Structure Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady The Haiti Project Appendix The Congregation The Sisters The Administrators 2 FOREWORD Catholic communities of Sisters devoted to caring for the sick were instrumental in developing the hospital system in America. The achievements are many and the sacrifices they made were often unbelievable. Perhaps, one of the most famous was the ministry of Mother Marianne of Molakai, a member of the Sisters of St. Francis. She gave herself in service to the lepers of Hawaii, serving for 29 years until her death. Through the efforts of communities of Catholic Sisters, one or more hospitals were developed in every major city of the U.S. The first group to arrive was the French Ursulines who came to New Orleans in 1727. They opened the first Catholic hospital in New Orleans in 1728. Countless communities of Catholic Sisters followed them. Few Sisters are famous. Most Sisters lived and died obscurely, secure in their belief in Our Lord Jesus Christ, giving themselves freely and willingly to the care of the sick. The Franciscan Sisters of Calais, the subject of this publication, came to the U.S. in 1911. The publication is a brief history of their ministry in Louisiana.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See LE PELERINAGE DE LOURDESENCYCLICAL OF POPE PIUS XII WARNING AGAINST MATERIALISM ON THE CENTENARY OF THE APPARITIONS AT LOURDES TO THE CARDINALS, ARCHBISHOPS, AND BISHOPS OF FRANCE IN PEACE AND COMMUNION WITH THE APOSTOLIC SEE Beloved Sons and Venerable Brethren, Greetings and Apostolic Benediction. Deep in our soul are profound and pleasant memories of the pilgrimage to Lourdes which We had the privilege of making when We went to preside, in the name of Our Predecessor, Pius XI, over the Eucharistic and Marian celebrations marking the close of the Jubilee of the Redemption. 2. We are particularly pleased, therefore, to learn that, on the initiative of the Bishop of Tarbes and Lourdes, this Marian city is preparing an appropriate celebration for the centenary of the apparitions of the Immaculate Virgin at the grotto of Massabielle, and that an international committee has been set up for this purpose under the presidency of His Eminence Eugene Cardinal Tisserant, Dean of the Sacred College of Cardinals. 3. We wish to join with you, Beloved Sons and Venerable Brothers, in thanking God for the great favor granted your country, and for the many graces He has bestowed on multitudes of pilgrims during the past century. 4. We wish to invite all Our children to renew in this jubilee year their confident and generous devotion to her who, in the words of Saint Pius X, deigned to establish at Lourdes "the seat of her immense kindness."[1] 5. Every Christian land is a Marian land; there is not a nation redeemed in the blood of Christ which does not glory in proclaiming Mary its Mother and Patroness.

  • Our Lady of Lourdes Church
    STORY AND PHOTOS BY BY HERMINE LEES SISTER NANCY MUNRO, CSJ STAFF WRITER THE FACES OF GOD: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHURCH teachers, returning for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Two signers interpreted for the hearing impaired and before the final blessing, wedding anniversary couples for the month were called to the sanctuary where they were congratulated and blessed by the assembly. After Mass many parishioners stayed for coffee and donuts in the parish hall. “It’s all good here,” says OLL School principal Patricia Hager. “It is so welcoming. The Catholicity, the identity — it is here. No matter what, whenever you come here, there is always something going on in the parish. And the priests support the school 100 percent. I am proud the children write letters to those in RCIA. I am proud that the children participate in ‘Locks of Love’ and they donate their hair for St. Baldrick’s Foundation and Stand Up to Cancer. I am so proud of what these children do here, and all grades participate.” Parishioners also are conscious that they can never become complacent. Members of the Parish Council often ask themselves, “Is there anything we still need to do to be more hospitable?” Welcome packets are given to those new to the parish. On the second Sunday of the month anniversary couples are recognized with a blessing and a red rose. Every ministry group within the parish takes its turn hosting a Donut Sunday. The renovated Our Lady of Lourdes Church was rededicated in 1995 after the 1994 Northridge earthquake. “The people try to make hospitality real here,” says Father Loftus, whose welcoming blanket is tangible proof.
