DiNardo of Galveston-Houston, is encourag- ing Catholics across the nation to join with Pope Francis Feb. 23, for a special “Day of Prayer and Fasting for Peace.” The day of prayer and fasting will focus on continued conflicts in troubled areas of the world. Reflecting on the suffering caused by violent conflict, Pope Francis said, “Our heavenly Father always listens to his children who cry to him in sorrow and anguish, who ‘heals the broken- hearted and binds up their wounds’ (Ps 147:3). I make a heartfelt appeal so that we also listen to this cry and, each one of us in his/her own con- science before God, ask ourselves, ‘What can I do for peace?’” Cardinal DiNardo went on to say, “Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has called us to observe a special ‘Day of Prayer and Fasting for Peace,’ as Lent begins, with a particular concern for the Democratic Republic of Congo and South Sudan.

  • Years of Storm & Stress
    YEARS OF STORM & STRESS Joseph Matt & Americanism with a commentary and notes by Paul Likoudis on Matt's “A Centenary of Catholic Life in Minnesota” published by The Wanderer, January – August 2012 From January to August 2012, The Wanderer published, and offered commentary, on a remarkable series of 36 articles written by this newspaper's long-serving editor Joseph Matt (1877-1966) in 1950-'51 on Americanism, “the German question,” and subjects related to “Cahenslyism,” named after the German Catholic layman Peter Paul Cahensly, who devoted himself to the aid of German-Catholic immigrants. In this series of articles, Joseph Matt told the German-American Catholics' side of the story of what the late Monsignor George Kelly would call the “Battle for the American Church”; i.e. German Catholic opposition to the nascent modernism in Americanism and the Americanist hierarchy's determination to assimilate German Catholics into the American melting pot. As a sort of prelude to this series, we will enter the field of German-American Catholic historiography with some snips from a paper read by University of Chicago historian Kathleen Neils Conzen at the first Edmund Spevack Memorial Lecture at Harvard University, November 7, 2003, which touches on many of the issues we will see Joseph Matt discussing in that series of 36 articles sixty years ago, as he reflected back on the battles of the of the late 19th and early 20th centuries: “....Catholicism has long seemed like an embarrassing guest at the table of American historiography,” observed Conzen, “best ignored in the hope that it will not make a disturbing fuss.

    Book of Remembrance Capuchin Province of St. Joseph January 1In In charity, let us remember our brother(s) (and affiliates) whose anniversary of death occurs tomorrow. Pancratius Spruck [ Pan -cray- shus Shprewk], who died at Mt. Calvary in 1886, at age 18, after four months in the Scholasticate. Pancratius came from Our Lady of Sorrows Parish in New York City. He entered the Scholasticate at Calvary and was invested into the Third Order of St. Francis. He possessed a genuine piety and was looking forward to entering the novitiate when Sister Death called him unexpectedly. Five years later, his brother entered the Order as Br. Francis, and following the death of his mother, his father also joined the Province as a Third Order Brother. Michael Albers [Al- burrs ], who died at Mt. Calvary in 1931, at age 83, after 58 years of religious life. Born in Germany, Michael came to America at age 21 and entered the novitiate at Calvary. Very hardworking, over the years and in various fariaries he served as porter, baker and gardener. He built the bakery at Mt. Calvary, and helped in the construction of the road that leads from the village to the monastery. Michael’s longest assignment was as porter at St. Joseph’s in Appleton where he remained for 30 years. At age 83, he retired to Mt. Calvary where he looked after the cemetery and spent his time in prayer for our deceased brothers. Michael was remembered as “a true Capuchin — simple and charitable.” Accursius Barthruff [a-CURSE-ee-us BAR-truff], who died at Yonkers in 1946, at age 71, after 52 years of religious life.

  • The Columbus Germans
    THE COLUMBUS GERMANS By LA VERN J. RIPPLEY Delegations of city planners from as far as Montreal in the East and Honolulu in the West have studied the Columbus redevelopment of "German Village." The reclaiming of property in German Village repre- sents the largest private undertaking of its kind in the world. It is an TYPICAL STREET SCENE IN GERMAN VILLAGE TODAY attempt to preserve the architecture of some 1600 dwellings and the Old World flavor of the once bustling center of a substantial German popu- lation. Today the German Village Society has gained legal sanction with a special commission whose stamp of approval, like that of the director of construction in any German city today, must seal the plans before an owner can alter or remove a single structure. The result is that businesses look distinctly German; the Konditorei, Bäckerei, and Village Markt taste- fully intrigue the customer while an Old World Bazaar houses varying shops jutting off a pedestrian's roofed passageway. In the Cafe you can have German Torten, breads and pretzels. Not least significant is a German woodcarver's store in which all the wares are hand tooled by the father while the mother sells the art pieces to appreciative gift-seekers.* * The restoration plans were described in the publication of the National Trust for Historic Preservation by Mrs. William A. Scheurer, "German Village, Columbus, Ohio," Historic Preservation XVIII (1966) No. 2, 64-67. A recent article in the Travel Section of the New York Times praised the Village both as one of the " handhomest neighborhoods" and "a tourist attraction." See Bill Thomas, " Touch of Old Germany in the Middle of Ohio," New York Times, April 21, 1968.
