Oral History Digizaon Project Oral History Through Song Oral history of Joe Moses Date recorded: August 12, 1942 Background: Joseph Moses, born ca. 1889, was the last Duwamish tribal member to live on the tribe’s historic lands near the former Black River in Renton. The Moses family home was located where the pracce fields are now just west of Renton High School. Joe was the son of Jimmie and Jennie Moses and the older brother of Henry Moses, a former star athlete of Renton High School. Jimmie was the son of Chief William, the chief of the Duwamish tribe. All Nave American tribes have strong tradions of oral history that include songs. The tribes did not have wrien languages so they used legends and songs to pass down their history to younger generaons. The Duwamish were no excepon. Joe Moses’s oral history is the only one in our collecon that includes songs. The recording was made by a man who only idenfies himself as an “old-mer.” The copy we have is a re-recording in 1975 of the original which was made in 1942. The quality is not great and includes a fair amount of stac, but you can hear Joe singing two songs: a war song and a love song. No one who speaks Lushootseed (the nave tongue of the Duwamish and other tribes) has listened to this tape, so we do not yet know if the quality is good enough to make out the words to Joe’s songs. Going forward, the Museum would love to see if we can get this tape translated and also if we can find someone to clean up the audio and remove some of the stac. Joe Moses at the Moses home, ca. 1930s. (RHM# 41.2000 ) Joe passed away March 23, 1954 and his brother Henry died January 15, 1969. They le behind no descendants. As far as we know, this is the only recording from the Moses family and it represents not just an important part of Renton history, but also Washington State history.

History of St. Michael the Archangel Parish. a Half Centry of Saint Michael Catholic Church, Olyphant, PA
History of St. Michael the Archangel Parish. A Half Centry of Saint Michael Catholic Church, Olyphant, PA. 1912-1962. CAP at Orchard Lake. The growth of coal mining in the Lackawanna Valley brought a great number of Polish immi- grants to Olyphant at the beginning of the Twentieth Century. Soon there arose a need for the establishment of a parish and the building of a church to serve these people. The organization of the parish was initiated by Mr. Joseph Kwiatek, a hotel owner in the borough, in the Spring of 1909. A committee was organized to lay the foundation of the new parish. The following men served on the committee: Messrs. Joseph Kwiatek, Michael Borys, Michael Ksydar, Louis Naglak, Joseph Guzek, Andrew Naglak, George Klocek, Joseph Pijar, John Pasko, John Swieton, Frank Szarek, Joseph Borys, Matthew Dutka, Anthony Oleniacz, and Jacob Czeluszniak. The first meeting of the committee was held in the home of Mr. Louis Naglak. It was decided at this meeting that a census be taken of the Polish families living in Olyphant and that affairs be held to raise money for the buying of property. On September 13, 1909 property was bought from Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Kelley. There were three homes on the property: one was to serve as a rectory; another was to become a convent; and the third was to be raised for the construction of a church. The Committee reported its progress to His Excellency, the Most Reverend Michael J. Hoban, who at that time was the Bishop of the Diocese of Scranton.

St. Joseph and St. Michael the Archangel
DECREE EFFECTING THE MERGER OF SAINT JOSEPH PARISH (DUBOIS) INTO SAINT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL PARISH (DUBOIS) History A. Saint Joseph Parish From 1877 to 1893, the only Catholic parish in DuBois was Saint Catherine of Siena Parish. In 1893, Bishop Tobias Mullen established Saint Joseph Parish in DuBois as a personal parish for Catholics in the DuBois area who were of Lithuanian or Polish descent. Parishioners quickly began construction of the original parish church, which was dedicated in 1894. For eighteen years, Lithuanian and Polish Catholics worshipped together in DuBois, until a separate parish was erected in DuBois in 1912 for Catholics of Polish heritage. With the creation of Saint Michael the Archangel Parish, Saint Joseph Parish was effectively split in half. Since the number of parishioners was still significant, however, a larger church was needed, and the present church was constructed in 1924. The former church building was converted to use as the parish school. For a time, Saint Joseph Parish administered a mission at St. Anthony church in Helvetia. The mission had previously been a parish in its own right before becoming a mission of Saint Stanislaus Parish in Tyler and then of Saint Joseph Parish in DuBois, until fire destroyed the mission in 1955. Saint Joseph parish school, housed in the former church, closed its doors in 1971. Since 1999, Saint Joseph Parish has not had a full-time pastor, sharing a pastor first with Saint Catherine of Siena Parish from 1999 to 2009, and then with Saint Michael the Archangel Parish from 2009 to the present.

The Figure of Joseph the Patriarch in the New Testament and the Early Church
ABSTRACT “Much More Ours Than Yours”: The Figure of Joseph the Patriarch in the New Testament and the Early Church by John Lee Fortner This paper investigates the figure of Joseph the patriarch in early Christian interpretation, demonstrating the importance of such figures in articulating a Christian reading of the history of Israel, and the importance of this reading in the identity formation of early Christianity. The paper also illumines the debt of this Christian reading of Israel’s history to the work of Hellenistic Judaism. The figure of Joseph the patriarch is traced through early Christian interpretation, primarily from the Eastern Church tradition up to the 4th century C.E. The key methodological approach is an analysis of how the early church employed typological, allegorical, and moral exegesis in its construction of Joseph as a “Christian saint of the Old Testament.” A figure who, to borrow Justin Martyr’s phrase, became in the Christian identity “much more ours than yours.” “Much More Ours Than Yours”: The Figure of Joseph the Patriarch in the New Testament and the Early Church A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of History by John Lee Fortner Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2004 Advisor ________________________ Dr. Edwin Yamauchi Reader ________________________ Dr. Charlotte Goldy Reader _________________________ Dr. Wietse de Boer Table of Contents Introduction 1 Early Christian Hermeneutics 1 The Aura of Antiquity 6 Apologetics of Hellenistic Judaism 8 Scope and Purpose of Study 12 1.

Abraham: the Story of a Life [Review] / Blenkinsopp, Joseph
BOOK REVIEWS Blenkinsopp, Joseph. Abraham: The Story of a Life. Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 2015. 256 pp. Paperback, $29.00. Joseph Blenkinsopp, John A. O’Brien Professor Emeritus of Biblical Studies at the University of Notre Dame, has a comprehensive repertoire of published materials on the OT. His bibliography includes such books as A History of Prophecy in Israel, Creation, Re-creation, Un-Creation: A Discursive Commentary on Genesis 1–11; 3 volumes for the Anchor Yale Bible Commentary on Isaiah; Ezra-Nehemiah: A Commentary for the Old Testament Library series; Ezekiel (Interpretation: A Bible Commentary for Teaching and Preaching); David Remembered: Kingship and National Identity in ancient Israel, and Judaism, the First Phase: The Place of Ezra and Nehemiah in the Origins of Judaism; and many more. In this new volume, Blenkinsopp applies his acclaimed historical skills to the Abrahamic narratives. These narratives (Gen 12–25) occupy a prominent section in the fifty chapters of Genesis, rightfully deserving continuing scholarly study. Abraham figures large in the Christian canon. Indeed, subsequent OT books (Exodus through Malachi) often refer to Abraham— forty-three additional times. In the NT, Abraham is noted in eleven books, including all four Gospels (Matthew, six times; Luke, fourteen times), along with being featured in one of the longest sections in Heb 11 and mentioned nine more times in Galatians and the same in Romans. Blenkinsopp opens this book with a four-page preface followed by a twenty-four page introduction. Next are

Through the Bible – Micah Bethlehem
RESOURCES New American Commentary, vol. 20 - Kenneth L. Baker & Waylon Bailey Calvary Chapel Lynchburg presents The Minor Prophets - H. A. Ironside Through the Be Amazed (Minor Prophets) - Warren W. Wiersbe Exploring Bible Prophecy - Tim LaHaye & Ed Hindson Bible cclburg.com/ThroughTheBible with Pastor Troy Warner My Notes Micah The Promised Land was under constant threat. Enemies assailed the kingdoms on every side and the kings led the people astray with false gods. Alongside other prophets like Isaiah and Hosea, God raised up Micah of Moresheth. He decried the idolatry and corruption of both capital cities and prophesied the coming destruction at the hands of Assyria. Samaria was doomed, but Judah would be spared. Micah was ignored by two different kings, but the son of Judah’s worst idolater heard his message. By the skin of their teeth, God delivered His people in the South, but Samaria was destroyed, as Micah had predicted. The prophet’s alternating message of judgment and mercy paints an accurate picture of a God full of love yet full of wrath over sin. December 20, 2017 About Micah Author: Micah Date: ca. 700 BC Genre: Prophecy Purpose: To call the nations of Israel and Judah to repentance as the threat of Assyrian invasion looms, and to declare the hope of Messiah’s coming kingdom. Characteristics: An intense book of prophecy that denounces the leadership of the Promised Land and provides strong contrast against true worship of the Lord. Outline I.

ARCHDIOCESE of CHICAGO Chicago and the Vitality of Her
ARCHDIOCESE OF CHICAGO w Office of the Archbishop 835 North Rush Street Chicago, IL60611-2030 312.534.8230 archchicago.org Prot. N. 2020 R/WC-19 DECREE IN THE NAME OF GOD. AMEN. "Likewise, parishes which are too small should be united insofar as the situation demands it and circumstances permit." St. Paul VI, Apostolic Letter motu proprio, Ecclesiae Sanctae, n. 21, (1), August 6, 1966 Changing demographics have affected the size and wealth of the Archdiocese of Chicago and the vitality of her parishes. This is particularly true in the City of Chicago itself, where the total population fell by at least 20% since 1970, from 3,366,957 to an estimated 2,705,994 in 2018. The archdiocese has many vacant, old, and underused parochial buildings and fewer priests to pastor our faith communities. According to the US Census Bureau, the Archdiocese of Chicago had an estimated total population of 5,881,250 in 2018. The 20^8 Annuario Pontificio indicates our archdiocese had 345 parishes serving a Catholic population of 2,512,000: an average of 7,281 Catholics per parish. According to the same source, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles had a total population of 11,519,517, with 287 parishes for a Catholic population of 4,362,000: an average of 15,199 Catholics per parish. For the Archdiocese of New York, the figures are 2,656,987 Catholics in 294 parishes, an average 9,037 Catholics per parish. A good number of our parishes were founded in the first half of the last century or earlier.
