  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church
    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.

SLAWSON During the ante-bellum period and the era of Reconstruction, the religious life of black Christians in New Orleans cast in sharp relief the general experience of their urban counterparts throughout the South, namely, the tendency toward separate Protestant churches for blacks versus the nearly universal practice of integration in Catholic ones. New Orleans highlights this contrast because there the demography of black denominationalism was reversed. In the South, the majority of black Christians, slave and free, belonged to the various Protestant denominations; only a handful belonged to the Catholic body. In the Crescent City, however, the majority of blacks were Catholics, while the minority were Protestants. Black Catholics in New Orleans at- tended racially mixed churches down through the first decade of the twentieth century.

Mensing, Jr. The appointment of the first Apostolic Delegate to the Catholic hierarchy of the United States in 1893 coincided with a period of viru­ lent religious bigotry. In 1887 the American Protective Association, a notoriously nativist and anti-Catholic body, was established in Clinton, Iowa. Often referred to as the A.P.A., the organization concerned itself primarily with Catholic schools, their influence in society, and the ques­ tion of government aid for such institutions. I In the early l890s when the A.P.A. reached the height of its influ­ ence, knowledgeable men in the American Catholic hierarchy believed that Roman authorities seriously considered the appointment of an Apostolic Delegate for the United States.

  • The Role of Archbishop Joseph F. Rummel in the Desegregation of Catholic Schools in New Orleans by John Smestad Jr
    The Role of Archbishop Joseph F. Rummel in the Desegregation of Catholic Schools in New Orleans by John Smestad Jr. "We are still convinced that enforced racial discrimination inflicts incalculable mental and emotional cruelty and pain, physical and social privations, educational and economic restrictions upon 16 millions of our fellow citizens, and that these discriminations are unjustifiable violations of the Christian way of life and the principles of our American heritage" (Rummel, "Blessed" 1). These words of Most Reverend Joseph Francis Rummel, the Archbishop of New Orleans from 1935 through 1963, reflect the beliefs which guided him in directing the racialintegration of all Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of New Orleans. An historical analysis of Rummel's role in the civil rights struggle shall be made through the presentation of the background of Catholic school segregation in New Orleans, a brief biography of the man, and the events between 1953 and 1963 which led to the actual racial integration of the Catholic schools. The Background of the Struggle The background of the education of Black Catholics begins with the aftermath of the Civil War. In 1866 the Plenary Council of Baltimore decreed that American bishops should take steps to formally institute Catholic education in their dioceses. Archbishop John M. Odin, C.M., who was ordinary from 1861 to 1870, began the effort by inviting the Oblate Sisters of Providence to teach in New Orleans. Due to inadequate funding and post-Civil War racial discrimination this effort proved to be a failure. Odin's next two successors also were ill-equipped to provide meaningful education for Catholic Blacks.

  • Numa J. Rousseve Jr
    Numa J. Rousseve Jr. Creole, Catholic, and Jesuit R. BENTLEY ANDERSON, S.J. 42/4 • WINTER 2010 THE SEMINAR ON JESUIT SPIRITUALITY The Seminar is composed of a number of Jesuits appointed from their provinces in the United States. It concerns itself with topics pertaining to the spiritual doctrine and practice of Je suits, especially United States Jesuits, and communicates the results to the members of the provinces through its publication, Studies in the Spirituality of Jesuits. This is done in the spirit of Vatican II’s recommendation that religious institutes recapture the origi- nal inspiration of their founders and adapt it to the circumstances of modern times. The Seminar welcomes reactions or comments in regard to the material that it publishes. The Seminar focuses its direct attention on the life and work of the Jesuits of the United States. The issues treated may be common also to Jesuits of other regions, to other priests, religious, and laity, to both men and women. Hence, the journal, while meant es- pecially for American Jesuits, is not exclusively for them. Others who may find it helpful are cordially welcome to make use of it. CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE SEMINAR R. Bentley Anderson, S.J., teaches history at St. Louis University, St. Louis, Mo. (2008) Richard A. Blake, S.J., is chairman of the Seminar and editor of Studies; he teaches film stud ies at Boston College, Chestnut Hill, Mass. (2002) Mark Bosco, S.J., teaches English and theology at Loyola University Chicago, Chicago, Ill. (2009) Gerald T. Cobb, S.J., teaches English at Seattle University, Seattle, Wash.
