REV. MONSIGNOR DANIEL C. RIORDAN, P.P, PARISH HISTORY Before the year 1830 the few Catholics residing in Watertown and its vicinity were attended by priests from Boston whose mission extended from Massachusetts Bay to the Hudson River, New York; but long before that year ©vents of historic importance occurred which form an interesting background to the history of the Catholic Church in Watertown. In 1631, shortly after the town fathers had selected the present plough- lands" on the Charles River as a site for their township, Richard Brown, a "ruling elder" maintained that the churches of Rome were true churches , and in this opinion Rev. Mr. Phillips, the pastor, seems to have concurred. In order to put an end to the controversy that such an avowal caused Governor Win- throp Deputy-Governor Dudley, and Mr. Nowell, the elder of the Boston con­ gregation, came to Watertown to confer with Rev. Mr. Phillips and Mr Brown. No satisfactory conclusion resulted from the conference. A day of humilia­ tion and prayer was recommended, but the disturbance ended only when Mr. Brown ceased to be the ruling elder. After the destruction of the Catholic settlements Minas and Grande Pre, Nova Scotia, many of the unfortunate Acadians were scattered over these regions, and "friendless, homeless and helpless they wandered from city to city." It is certain that some of these Acadians were among the first Catholics within the limits of Watertown. For two years one of their priests, Rev. Jus­ tinian Durant, resided in Boston. In 1775, an invitation was sent by Washington to the following Catholic Indian tribes in Maine; the Penobscot, the PassamoQuoddies, and St. John's, to join the cause of freedom. Delegates from these tribes came to confer with the Massachusetts General Assembly, which received them at Watertown. Ambrose Var, the chief of the St. John's tribe was the spokesman, and his salutation was: "We are thankful to the Almighty to see the council." The Indians promised to aid the cause of the patriots, and their only reQuest was, we want a "black gown" or "French priest.” The General Assembly of Massa­ chusetts expressed its satisfaction at their reQuest for religion and declared itself ready to procure a French priest but truly added that it did not know w nere to find one. The Indians earnestly joined the American cause and helped a great de til in the freedom of the colonies. So few were the Catholics in this section of Massachusetts in 1790, that the Rev. John Thayer, Pastor of the Catholic Church in Boston, declared that their number did not exceed 100 souls. In the early years of the nineteenth century, multitudes of the oppressed people of Europe flocked to these shores to enjoy the peace and freedom proffered by the Constitution of the new re­ public. By the influx the number of Catholics increased to such an extent that it became necessary to establish independent parishes in the district attended by the priests from Boston. In the year 1830, Watertown, Waltham, the Newtons, Weston, Concord and other neighboring towns were formed into a district "mission," and a name buiMing 50 feet and 35 feet was erected on the land now known as the old Catholic cemetery in Waltham. The pastor of this new mission continued to reside in Boston until 1839 when the Rev. T. Fitzsimmons took charge. At that time the congregation had 300 members. The successors of Fatner Fitzsimmons were Rev. M. Lynch, Rev. James Strain and Rev. P. Flood. A Thomas Allen who came to Watertown in 1844 recalled that he boarded with a family who lived over a little store which stood where Thomas McAnn's shoe store is now located on Main'Street. ,.. , ° n Sundays a priest came to that house and celebrated Mass on the t w i f 1 table ,whlle. ail *hf Catholics of the vicinity were assembled to hear the Mass, and receive Holy Communion. 0,^ 3 ® pnesthad ™glk a long distance to reach the town, so he came a l a r i cl^eTm d tW Waf, no extra bedroom, the inhabitants emptied however,howSrer as the boarders allT fT slept ® h®on pnesfcots in slept/ one room. Jt gave him a little privacy, PRESENT CURATES 7 DR. JAMES E. FAHEY, D.D PARISH HISTORY 8 Shortly after Rev. Patrick Flood assumed the care of the little church in Waltham It was destroyed by fire, and as the majority of worshippers were in Watertown it was deemed expedient to erect a church in that town. In 1846 Father Flood endeavored to secure a temporary place for services, and after many vain efforts, succeeded in obtaining the use of what was then know nasthe "Whig Reading Room," located at Watertown sQuare Here the little congregation continued to assemble until it purchas^ he old Meth­ odist Meeting House which was moved from Galen Street to Church Hill and was remodelled to become the first Catholic Church in Watertown. The congregation continued to increase to such a large extent that it was necessary to seek still larger accommodations. Cooperating with Fr. Flood the parishioners secured for themselves the site of a new church, also erected on Church Hill Street (now the parish hall) which had seating for more than 800 people. The cornerstone of the church was blessed on September //, 1847 by Rt. Rev. Bishop Fitzpatrick assisted by the pastor Father Hood, and Rev. P. O'Beirne. Although the edifice was unfinished in December of the same year, the congregation would assemble therein every Sunday, and by extraordinary and persevering efforts on the part of pastor and people, it was completed and dedicated by the Bishop in the month of June 1848. In 1851 the Rev. Bernard Flood, a probable nephew of Rev. Patrick Flood, was sent as an assistant. He came as a young priest from the Grand Semi­ nary of Montreal and like Father Patrick Flood had been born in Castle Tara County, Caven, Ireland. The parish still comprised the missions at Waltham, West Newton and Concord, where new churches were built. When Rev. Patrick Flood died in 1863, Rev. Bernard Flood was appointed pastor, and in 1864 he moved to Waltham and left the remaining portion of the Watertown parish to the care of Rev. John W. McCarthy who resided as parish priest until September 1871. During his pastorate Newton Upper Falls became a separate parish. Fr. McCarthy had as an assistant Rev. Edward S. Galligan. Rev. M. M. Green was appointed pastor in September 1871, and in June 1872, Rev. Robert P. Stack was commissioned to assist him. Among the many splendid things which he did was the erection of the present Church of Our Lady Hel; of Christians in Newton to which he was transferred as parish priest in 18', 9 when that parish became a separate entity. Rev. Robert P. Stack then took over St. Patricks in Watertown and under his energetic administration great improvements were made. The church was enlarged and decorated; and a brick schoolhouse costing about $35,000 was built on Church Hill, (now used as the grammar school), Fr.

  • Reflection by Bishop James A. Murray on the MCC's
    FOCUS Volume 31, No.3 November, 2003 Reflection by Bishop James A. Murray on the MCC’s Fortieth Anniversary The Michigan Catholic Conference (MCC) was founded in 1963 by John Cardinal Dearden, Archbishop of Detroit. At the time, the Second Vatican Council had only reached the midpoint in its four sessions, which began on October 11, 1962 and concluded on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, December 8, 1965. By establishing the MCC, Cardinal Dearden wisely anticipated the promulgation of the Council’s Pastoral Constitution of the Church in the Modern World (Gaudium et Spes, 12/7/65), which exhorted “Christians as citizens of two cities, to strive to discharge their earthly duties conscientiously and in response to the gospel spirit.... The Christian who neglects his temporal duties, neglects his duties toward his neighbor and even God.” 1. Ten years ago I was privileged to speak to the MCC staff. With the words of Gaudium et Spes in mind, I said that “this Conference has proven to be one of the many good results of the Second Vatican Council and a model for other ecclesiastical provinces.” For forty years the Conference has ably served as the voice of the Catholic Church in Michigan on many, and diverse, issues of public policy. In so doing, it has played a major role in making sure that the Catholics of Michigan perform their duty as citizens “conscientiously and in response to the gospel spirit.” For four decades the Michigan Catholic Conference, through its Board of Directors and its dedicated staff, has labored energetically to promote the common good for all Michigan’s citizens by its advocacy for “peace, freedom and equal- ity, respect for human life and for the environment, justice and solidarity.” Doctrinal Note on the Participation of Catholics in Political Life – Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith A good benchmark against which to evaluate the efficacy of the Conference is, in my opinion, Pope John Paul II’s Apostolic Exhortation to the Church in America, Ecclesia in America, 1/22/99).
