In the gospels it seems that in Jesus days there was good observance of the Sabbath at least in some ways. In answer to the above questions I assume that all of us at The first Christians were Jews. After the Lord’s death, Christ the King would respond “God” to the first question, and resurrection and ascension they continued to worship in the “Jesus Christ” to the second.

But the Acts of the If that is the case, it seems perfectly natural that we should Apostles 2:42-47, tells us that they also gathered in their homes acknowledge that in some way. To have been created and for the “Breaking of the Bread” as Jesus had commanded them redeemed is a grace, a free gift of God, for which we ought to to do in His memory.

That Christians continued to celebrate the Eucharist on Him and one another without the distraction of the work and Sundays is attested by St. Justin the Martyr, from Nablus just toils of everyday living, And Jesus Himself designated north of Jerusalem, about the year 100 A.D.: celebrate His Supper as the way to remember Him. The Jewish people observe the Lord’s day on Saturday, On Sundays there is an assembly of all who live in which they call Shabbat. God promises many blessings to those towns or the country, and the memoirs of the Apostles who keep His Sabbath faithfully.

  • St. Augustine Statistics
    The Catholic Diocese of St. Augustine On Sept. 8, 1565, a small band of Spaniards celebrated Mass on the shores of North Florida in preparation for starting a settlement there. They named their new home St. Augustine in honor of the saint on whose feast day they sighted land. Thus were the seeds of Christianity sown in North America. St. Augustine is the site of the first permanent parish church, now the Cathedral-Basilica. The famed Santa Fe Trail origi- nated here. It was from here that Franciscan missionaries began the trek North and West to proclaim the Good News. It was here that the first schools and hospitals were established. It was not until March 11, 1870 that Florida, east of the Apalachicola River, was designated as the Diocese of St. Augustine. The growth of the church in Florida from this Mother Diocese to six additional dioceses and more than 2.1 million Catholics is a significant part of the story of the Catholic Church in the United States. Today, the Diocese of St. Augustine encompasses 17 counties spanning the northeast section of Florida from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean. It covers 11,032 square miles and serves about 171,000 registered Catholics.

Gordon: The Missions of Tampa: Excerpts from the Diary of Father Clavreul “THE MISSIONS OF TAMPA”: EXCERPTS FROM THE DIARY OF FATHER CLAVREUL, 1866-1873 Edited and Annotated by Julius J. Gordon The Catholic Church in Florida dates from the sixteenth century, but it had little permanent influence on the Tampa Bay area until three centuries later. In 1858, the arrival of Bishop Augustin Verot in St. Augustine marked a turning point in the modern history of the Catholic Church in Florida. At the time Bishop Verot took up his duties in St. Augustine, his vicariate covered all of Florida east of the Apalachicola River. In this area from the Georgia border to Key West, the entire Catholic Church consisted of six churches and chapels, four schools, three priests, and some 3,000 adherents. Bishop Verot soon initiated a movement that by 1870 increased the Church’s presence to nineteen churches and chapels, seven schools, twelve priests, and about 10,000 parishioners.

  • The Catholic University of America A
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA A Church Apart: The Catholic Church in the Rural South, 1939-1990 A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of History School of Arts & Sciences Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Seth R. Smith Washington, D.C. 2016 A Church Apart: The Catholic Church in the Rural South, 1939-1990 Seth R. Smith, Ph.D. Director: Leslie Woodcock Tentler, Ph.D. This dissertation examines Catholicism in the rural South to answer three questions. The first is how did priests and lay Catholics engage in a pluralistic American society before and after Vatican II while drastically outnumbered? The second is what did it mean to be part of the universal Catholic Church while isolated geographically, socially, and institutionally? Finally, how do we balance the impact of major national and international events on the Catholicism in the rural South with the importance of local context? This dissertation seeks to answer these questions by examining the history of seven parishes – four pastored by Glenmary Home Missioners and three pastored by non-Glenmarians – in the rural South between 1939 and 1990. Throughout much of the twentieth century, Southern Catholics were regarded with suspicion by their neighbors without the protections offered by numbers or their own confessional institutions. Catholics in the rural South dealt with this in two ways. The first was by emphasizing their Southerness. Apart from their religious beliefs, they were virtually indistinguishable from their fellow Southerners, and their views on politics, economics, and race hewed much closer to their non-Catholic neighbors than their co-religionists in the North.

Much of American Catholic scholarship focuses on the twentieth century (especially the Second Vatican Council and its aftermath), the North, and issues of race, class, urbanization, and gender giving sparse treatment to the nineteenth century South; when the nineteenth century is discussed the focus is once more usually on the North, immigration, and societal tensions between Catholics and Protestants.

Creason, Graduate Student, University of Louisville “THE WHOLE WORLD SEEMS TO BE GETTING OUT OF JOINT”: THE ROMAN CATHOLIC RESPONSE TO THE ELECTION OF 1860, THE SECESSION MOVEMENT, AND THE START OF THE CIVIL WAR IN THE BORDER SOUTH1 On November 12, 1860, Roman Catholic Bishop Martin John Spalding of Louisville informed his metropolitan, Archbishop John Baptist Purcell of Cincinnati, that the South had “assum[ed] a very menacing attitude” and that disunion appeared “imminent.”2 Six days before Spalding penned the letter to Purcell, Abraham Lincoln earned a majority of the electoral votes in the 1860 presidential election. As northerners celebrated the Republican victory and southern Fire-Eaters advocated secession, Catholic clergy in the Border States feared the outbreak of war in their dioceses and dreaded the effects of disunion on the American Church. Prelates and priests foresaw a dismal future for the nation and attributed the fractured state of the Union to the ill-effects of Protestantism in American society.

  • Atlanta Catholic Centennial
    Atlanta Catholic Centennial Introduction OUR CITY'S CENTENNIAL: 1837 - 1937 CATHOLICISM IN THE EARLY DAYS This history of the Catholic Community of Atlanta, from its beginning through 1937, was published as a series of articles in the Saint Anthony's Parish News, Volumes 6 and 7, 1937-8. The first installment appeared in July 1937 as part of Atlanta's centennial celebrations. The importance of this work by T. J. O'Keefe, the founding editor of this unique monthly is two-fold. It is the only printed history of our community from the earliest days, and it corrects oversights made by other writers (see Appendix). May this be an interim testimonial to the big-heartedness and Catholic spirit of those who made Saint Anthony's Parish News, through the years. My personal thanks to Sister Mary Carmel Najjar, C.S.J., who typed this manuscript. Father John C. Kieran Saint Anthony's April 30, 1972 Conception and Birth The year 1837 saw the location of Atlanta actually determined by the driving of a stake at what is now the southwest corner of the junction of Central Avenue and Wall Street. This location was chosen by Stephen H. Long, Engineer-in-Chief of the authorized Western and Atlantic Railroad in compliance with an act of the Georgia Legislature and signed by Governor William Schley in December, 1836. It is doubtful whether the Governor or any of the legislators had the slightest idea that they had ordered the selection of a site for a town, let alone the metropolis of Atlanta, when they ordered a point selected for a railroad junction.
