Separations: 5.5 linear feet of extraneous material and duplicates were discarded See Also: Administrative History Serra was founded in 1934 by Harold Haberlie, Dan Rooney, Leo Sharkey and Richard Ward in Seattle, Washington. These four men and their wives met in Leo Sharkey’s home to discuss the idea of starting a Catholic Service Club and thus Serra was born. The first Serra club was chartered in Seattle with 35 members in 1935. Serra officially became Serra International in 1938, at the first convention. The first official Serra club outside the United States was chartered in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada in 1943. Serra International is named for Father Junipero Serra, a Franciscan friar who founded the mission chain in Alta, California. The mandate of Serra International is to foster and promote vocations in the Catholic Church and to aid in financing the education of seminarians. Serra clubs were chartered around the world to help promote Catholic vocations. As interest in Serra International’s work increased, so did the number of clubs. In 1954 The Serran magazine was first published in efforts to keep Serrans across the country informed. International clubs also had their version of The Serran, which was published in a variety of languages. Every year an annual convention was held to gather the clubs and decide on uniform goals for promoting Catholic vocations. Committees and programs were also created to help promote and finance vocations. In 1946 Serra International moved its central offices to Chicago and the headquarters have remained in Chicago to this day. The growth of international clubs greatly expanded in the 1950s and 1960s as clubs were chartered in the countries of Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, as well additional charters across the United States. National Councils were formed in Great Britain, Brazil, and Spain in Serra International Records Page 1 Loyola University Chicago ~ Archives and Special Collections the 1970s and 1980s. In 1986, Serra International voted to welcome women as well as men to membership in the organization. The wives of Serra had always been active in the organization, but in 1986 women were finally granted full membership. Since it was founded in 1934, Serra has chartered 1,109 Serra Clubs in 46 countries on six continents.

In more than two hours of discus- sion about the letter on the last day of their Nov. 15-18 annual meeting a large majority of the 31 bishops who addressed the issue supported the basic thrust of the pastoral, couching their criticisms of specific points in terms of a desire to strengthen the total document and give it greater im- pact and credibility. Among major points they made about the 110-page second draft, which is their current working docu- ment, were the following: • The document's controversial section on the morality of nuclear deterrence needs to be developed.

    OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE MICHIGAN STATE COUNCIL KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS MICHIGAN COLUMBIAN “Rise Up and Answer the Call” October 2020 VOLUME 72 NO. 2 From The State Deputy Walter K. Winkle, Jr. Brother Knights and Families, I pray that all of you are safe and that the Covid has minimally affected your lives. As this virus continues to plague society, Remember the Leave no Neighbor Behind Program that has been in progress for a few months now. I strongly urge every council to call on their members and ask how they and their families are and is there anything you can do as a council to help them. Open the communications with your fellow Brothers and offer what you can to help. Then call on the members of your parish to ask if they are in need also. This is a perfect time to let them know who we are as Knights of Columbus. The first two months of the year have been very good so far and I would like to thank all of those members that introduced new men and their families to their councils during the free membership in August in honor of the beatification of our founder Fr. Micheal McGivney. I would like to congratulate those councils that have already reached their quota so far as of the end of August, Council 6549 in New Boston and Council 7945 in Clark Lake and the District Deputies in District 105, Dominic Raona, 131 William Aliti and 501 Chris Stevens that are over 45%. I encourage them along with all the other councils across the state to make every attempt to continue to recruit more men and their families to help us engage in Fr.

  • JVC Annual Report FY18
    ANNUAL REPORT FY 2017/18 Gratitude flows from the recognition “ that who we are and what we have are gifts to be received and shared. — HENRI NOUWEN 3 MESSAGE FROM LEADERSHIP The Jesuit Volunteer Corps and You: Creating a More Just and Hopeful World Together Welcome to the Jesuit Volunteer Corps’ FY2017/18 annual report! Within this report you’ll find stories that represent more than 10,000 leaders across the country who have been changed for good by their experience as Jesuit Volunteers. While JVs come to us from a variety of backgrounds, they all share a passion for facing the world’s most difficult challenges with integrity, faith, and unflinching resolve. They care deeply about social justice, they aspire to discern where and how they are called to live out their lives, and they are open to having their hearts and minds changed by the work they do and the people they serve. These are young people trying to understand how to integrate these values fully into their daily lives. They are leaders, hungry to effect change in the world, but uncertain of the best course to do so. And they have humility, recognizing that they must learn and accompany before they can act and help. We take our responsibility to these young leaders seriously. As our alumni tell us, the JVC experience is one that will influence their personal, professional, and spiritual values for the rest of their lives. In fact, JVC’s role is to challenge young people at a time in their lives when they are making important decisions about their future — pursuing an advanced degree, choosing a career, starting a family — and to provide what former volunteers consistently refer to as a life-changing experience.
