  • HISTORY of the NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE for GIRL SCOUTS and CAMP FIRE by Virginia Reed
    Revised 3/11/2019 HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE FOR GIRL SCOUTS AND CAMP FIRE By Virginia Reed The present National Catholic Committee for Girl Scouts and Camp Fire dates back to the early days of the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) and the National Catholic Welfare Conference. Although it has functioned in various capacities and under several different names, this committee's purpose has remained the same: to minister to the Catholic girls in Girl Scouts (at first) and Camp Fire (since 1973). Beginnings The relationship between Girl Scouting and Catholic youth ministry is the result of the foresight of Juliette Gordon Low. Soon after founding the Girl Scout movement in 1912, Low traveled to Baltimore to meet James Cardinal Gibbons and consult with him about her project. Five years later, Joseph Patrick Cardinal Hayes of New York appointed a representative to the Girl Scout National Board of Directors. The cardinal wanted to determine whether the Girl Scout program, which was so fine in theory, was equally sound in practice. Satisfied on this point, His Eminence publicly declared the program suitable for Catholic girls. In due course, the four U.S. Cardinals and the U.S. Catholic hierarchy followed suit. In the early 1920's, Girl Scout troops were formed in parochial schools and Catholic women eagerly became leaders in the program. When CYO was established in the early 1930's, Girl Scouting became its ally as a separate cooperative enterprise. In 1936, sociologist Father Edward Roberts Moore of Catholic charities, Archdiocese of New York, studied and approved the Girl Scout program because it was fitting for girls to beome "participating citizens in a modern, social democracy." This support further enhanced the relationship between the Catholic church and Girl Scouting.

  • Questions Posed by Fr. Paul Landolfi to Fr. Antonio Gascón, Postulator General Translated by Bro
    Questions posed by Fr. Paul Landolfi To Fr. Antonio Gascón, Postulator General Translated by Bro. Mike McAward Question: If we decide to pray for someone through the intercession of one of our "holy ones," must it be prayer to an individual (e.g., to Fr. Chaminade, Faustino or Fr. Lazaro)? What about prayer to the Marianist Martyrs together? What about prayer of the Marianist Family to all the saints of the Marianist Family (meaning the 14 presently being considered)? A person may pray to whomever he or she wishes. Therefore, invoking the “holy ones” as a group or as individuals is up to the person. In our communities we invoke the “Marianist Martyrs” during the Eucharistic Prayer as a group but Fr. Chaminade individually. Question: If someone does take this route, what is the process he or she must go through for it to be called a miracle? You wonder what happens if a so-called “miracle” results from such group prayer. This is a little more complicated. For an alleged miracle to be designated as coming about through the intercession of a person, it must be clearly linked to prayer to that person. This is nearly impossible to ascertain when the object of the prayer was a general group. Obviously, the main purpose of the request for a favor in prayer is the favor itself (a cure, assistance of some kind, etc.), and not as a way to get “credit” for a particular “saint-in-waiting.” Nevertheless, to advance a particular person’s cause, there must be a clear link of prayer to that individual, and not simply his or her presence in a general group.
