  • A Brief History of the Parish of Saint Eugene up to the 60Th Anniversary
    A Brief History of the Parish of Saint Eugene Up to the 60th Anniversary On Sunday, November 6, 1949, Father John Dougherty, Monsignor John Fearns and Father Roger Franklin offered four Masses at the Club House Inn on Tuckahoe Road, attended by a total of 378 members of the new St. Eugene's Parish. The official document establishing the parish and appointing Father Dougherty as pastor had been signed by Francis Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York, and dated October 31, 1949. In choosing as the patron of the parish the seventh-century Pope St. Eugene I, the Cardinal was honoring his great friend Pope Pius XII (Eugenio Pacelli). Northeast Yonkers, before World War II a more or less sparsely populated area, located between the urban west side of Yonkers and the established communities of Bronxville, Tuckahoe and Crestwood to the east, was by the late 1940S experiencing a period of rapid growth, typical of many suburban communities across the nation during the post-war years. The need for a new parish was clear. Cardinal Spellman had the right man for the job in Father Dougherty, then spiritual director of St. Joseph's Seminary, Dunwoodie. Old-time parishioners speak with great affection of Father-later Monsignor Dougherty, a man of holiness, vision and zeal, to whom we all owe so much. Father Dougherty's dream of a church and a school would soon become reality. To that end, 5.6 acres of largely wooded land on the northeast corner of Tuckahoe Road and Central Park Avenue-diagonally across from the Club House Inn property-were purchased.

  • The History of St. Thomas the Apostle the First Fifty Years
    The History of St. Thomas the Apostle The First Fifty Years The following is from a small book commemorating the 50th Anniversary of St. Thomas the Apostle. THE YEAR was 1902, the month was July, the day was the 9th. This date will never be forgotten as it was on this day that His Excellency, the Most Reverend John J. Monaghan, Bishop of the Diocese of Wilmington, had purchased the property, near Fourth Street and Grant Avenue, as the site for a new Catholic Church and initiated the erection thereon of a combined church and school to be named in honor of the patron saint of the first Bishop of Wilmington, Most Reverend Thomas A. Becker. The cornerstone was laid on May 24, 1903, by Bishop Monaghan, assisted by Vicar-General John A. Lyons and a large group of priests. The ceremonies began with a processional from the home of the Little Sisters of the Poor to a large wooden cross on the Church site where it was determined that the altar would be erected. After blessing this particular spot, the Bishop then consecrated and laid the cornerstone. Following this he blessed the foundation and then bestowed the Papal Blessing on all those present at the ceremony. The sermon was delivered by the Reverend Francis T. McCarthy, TOP – Original Church and School, now the old gym. S.J., while the musical program was under the direction of Professor BOTTOM – The brand new rectory in 1911. James Curran. On June 30, 1903, the Reverend John J. Connelly, then Chancellor of the Diocese and Assistant Pastor of Saint Paul's Church, was appointed as first Pastor of Saint Thomas.

    Our Mission Statement Roman Catholic Faithful, Inc. (RCF) is a lay organization, with many religious members, dedicated to promoting orthodox Catholic teaching and fighting heterodoxy and corruption within the Catholic hierarchy. Our Philosophy While we accept the authority of the Holy Father and all bishops in union with him, we will not sit idly by, nor blindly follow, while many in the hierarchy allow the Holy Catholic Church to be torn apart and assaulted by the forces of Modernism, Syncretism, Heresy, and the gross immorality of some of its clergy. As parents and teachers, we will not allow our Catholic youth to be robbed of their faith or have their innocence destroyed in the name of “tolerance”, “ecumenism”, “diversity” or any other politically correct ideology of the day. We object to individuals or groups of individuals being given access to Catholic schools, churches, and Church property to promote any belief, teaching, or idea contrary to Catholic teaching as defined by two thousand years of Tradition and Church teaching. We expect every Catholic priest to follow the disciplines of the Catholic Church as he promised. We expect every bishop to do all he can to safeguard the souls of our children by exercising his authority to ensure proper teaching within Catholic schools and parish religion programs. We insist that Catholic colleges and universities either teach the True Faith or cease calling themselves Catholic. We object to any priest treating the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass as his personal possession by adding, changing, or removing any part of the Mass on his own authority.

    September 2, 2002 Dear Friends, In a letter dated December 8, 2001, I revealed that Fr. Carlos Urrutigoity, the founder and former superior general of the Society of St. John, had been dismissed for homosexual behavior when he was a seminarian at the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) seminary in La Reja, Argentina. In that same letter, I noted that Urrutigoity, after he had been dismissed from the seminary in La Reja, was admitted as a seminarian into the SSPX seminary in Winona, Minnesota, where he was eventually ordained and made a professor. Finally, I further mentioned that Fr. Urrutigoity was subsequently expelled from the seminary in Winona as a result of his subversive activities. My letter left many readers with the same question: How could it be that the SSPX dismissed Carlos Urrutigoity for homosexual behavior from one of its seminaries, but subsequently accepted him into another SSPX seminary, and then ultimately ordained him a priest and even made him a professor there? I put this same question to Bishop Richard Williamson of the SSPX whom I contacted shortly after I learned that Fr. Urrutigoity had been accused of homosexual behavior as far back as his seminary days in La Reja. Bishop Williamson explained to me that Carlos Urrutigoity had indeed been dismissed from the SSPX seminary in La Reja for homosexual behavior, but that he was received into the SSPX seminary in Winona because the key SSPX authorities in North and South American did not believe the charges against him. According to Bishop Williamson (and others within the SSPX with whom I spoke), the charges against then seminarian Urrutigoity were not believed because of a deep division that was then taking place within the SSPX district in South America.

Qui a, depuis 2000, PROMU, et Pourquoi, le FAUX préalable de l’autorisation de la messe de Saint Pie V ? Pourquoi n’a-t-on pas posé la VRAIE question du rétablissement du VRAI Sacerdoce de VRAIS prêtres, ordonnés par des Evêques VALIDEMENT sacrés selon le rite VALIDE des Saints Ordres ? Qui a INVENTE, et POURQUOI, le faux préalable de la levée des «excommunications» ? Pourquoi n’a-t-on pas posé la VRAIE question de l’abrogation de Pontificalis Romani INVALIDE de 1968 et du rétablissement du vrai rite de la consécration épiscopale VALIDE d’avant 1968? A quoi servirait-il, en effet, de faire dire le VRAI rite de la messe par de FAUX prêtres ? Serait-ce donc qu’après avoir obligé de VRAIS prêtres à dire une FAUSSE messe, l’on veuille désormais faire dire la messe du VRAI rite par de FAUX prêtres ? Serait-ce que l’on veuille «concilier» les VRAIS prêtres qui disent encore la VRAIE messe avec un clergé aussi INVALIDE que le FAUX CLERGE ANGLICAN ?
