Servicemen’s Memorial July 4, 1976, p. 55 Saint Adalbert's Parish got its start from the Martin A. Wagner Company which was located in Wagner's Point, Maryland. In 1907, the Board of Directors agreed that a church was necessary for the "continued growth of the town and to the continued usefulness of the factory. It would also invite new settlers to the town and make for greater contentment of the people living there". (Quoted from Mr. M. A. Wagner in minutes of Board of Directors.) A pledge of $5,000 was given by the Wagner family as a memorial to Mr. Wagner. Thus, St. Adalbert's had its beginning and became a mission of St. Athanasius Catholic Church in nearby Curtis Bay. The church was of Gothic revival architecture and named for a tenth century Bishop of Prague, a martyr especially venerated in Poland. The first Mass in the church was celebrated by Cardinal James Gibbons. As the church had financial needs at various times, the Wagner family, or the company, made generous contributions. It should be mentioned here that Mr. Wagner was a very religious man. Before St. Adalbert's Church was built, he had carriages in the streets to take the people in the community to Mass in the city. Father Charles Kotlarz was its first and only pastor, serving until his death in 1955. After his death, the parish was operated on a part time basis by Father Stephen F. Blazucki, Pastor of St. Athanasius, as the Administrator. Its operation was confined to one Mass on each Sunday, Holy Days and First Friday. Because parish facilities had consisted of only the church, rectory and auditorium, children have gone to St. Rose of Lima School in Brooklyn while Mission Helpers nuns have taught Sunday School. In 1967, the sixty year old parish, in the heavily industrialized area of South Baltimore, closed its doors September 3, when Cardinal Lawrence Shehan offered a last Mass at 9:00 A.M. .

During Lent, There Will Be No Burger with My Fries,Video: Pilgrims Leave
During Lent, there will be no burger with my fries By Matt Palmer [email protected] Go big or go home, right? Lent is about sacrifice and walking in the journey with Jesus. People all across the globe will start the season with Ash Wednesday Mass and try to come up with something they are giving up for 40 days. A year ago, I gave up sodas, no small feat for a guy who drinks Cherry Cokes like they’re water. This year, I’m pulling out the big gun. I’ve giving up … wait for it … hamburgers. Stop laughing. Seriously, pick yourself up off the ground and breathe. Giving up burgers is a big deal to a picky eater like myself. The way I see it, great burgers are an art form, taken for granted like a 1980s Hall and Oates song – always a reliable hit. As a reporter, I’m constantly on the run and getting a drive-thru burger is an easy fallback. As a regular guy, I look at a restaurant menu of what other people see as a display of delicious food and wonder what the hamburger tastes like. More often than not, someone says, “Like a burger.” And I respond, “Awesome. I’ll get that.” Sometimes I get an itch and just run out and a buy a burger. It’s really that bad. Of course, I like making burgers on the grill, too. It gives me that boost of feeling extra manly about my burger addiction. Lenten Fridays have always been tough for me.

Archbishop John J. Williams
Record Group I.06.01 John Joseph Williams Papers, 1852-1907 Introduction & Index Archives, Archdiocese of Boston Introduction Biographical Sketch Scope and Content Content List (A-Z) Subject Index Introduction The John Joseph Williams papers held by the Archives of the Archdiocese of Boston span the years 1852-1907. The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Williams was assigned to what was to become St. Joseph’s parish in the West End of Boston until his death 55 years later. The papers number approximately 815 items and are contained in 282 folders arranged alphabetically by correspondent in five manuscript boxes. It is probable that the Williams papers were first put into some kind of order in the Archives in the 1930s when Fathers Robert h. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston, 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed individually in folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other Archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. In addition, several letters were sound in another section of the Archives. It is apparent that these letters were placed in the Archives after Lord, Sexton, and Harrington had completed their initial arrangement of manuscripts relating to the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. In preparing this collection of the original Williams material, a calendar was produced.

Special Vespers, Mass Help Mark 200Th Year of Nation’S First
Special vespers, Mass help mark 200th year of nation’s first cathedral BALTIMORE (CNS) — For a special vespers and Mass to mark the patronal feast of Baltimore’s Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary during its 200th anniversary year, Archbishop William E. Lori appropriately used the crosier that belonged to Archbishop Ambrose Maréchal. Archbishop Maréchal, the third archbishop of Baltimore, presided at the dedication of America’s first cathedral in 1821. The celebrations featured a talk on the history of the basilica and the first bishop in the U.S. by Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan of New York and a homily about Mary’s role in our faith by Los Angeles Auxiliary Bishop Robert E. Barron. The history of the basilica was the focus for vespers Aug. 14, the vigil of the feast of the Assumption, with a talk delivered by Cardinal Dolan, whose doctoral studies focused on the history of the American church. The cardinal started his talk quoting from the fifth chapter of Matthew’s Gospel: “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” He said he believed Archbishop John Carroll, the first bishop in the United States, had precisely this in mind when he made plans for the first cathedral to be built in the newly minted country. He said the basilica is the closest thing the Catholic Church in the U.S. has to Independence Hall, Mount Rushmore and the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Archbishop Carroll, a “realistic dreamer,” intended the new cathedral to be “a light to the nation, a light to the world,” the cardinal said.
