Lent ... 2016 AD Brothers and Sisters of St. Francis of Reconciliation - Palm Springs www.FranciscanCanticle.com observing Lent or maintained vestiges of the attitude toward that season my friends and I had embraced as children. Some priests, nuns, and parents tend to perpetuate a negative attitude toward Lent unintentionally, of course, by emphasizing that children prepare for Easter by spending the forty days of Lent denying themselves something they truly enjoy. Kids like me who chose to give up things like creamed onions were not considered among the elite of the repentant but were deemed to be shirkers. In a sense, I suppose we were less committed to the lenten spirit they we should have been. Given what I could see of the general attitude of adults at LET YOUR LENT BE JOYFUL the time, the lenten spirit lack spirit. By Richard Brakefield, J.D., O.SF, KGCHS In my adult years I have come to know that Lent is indeed a period of preparation for Lent is coming! Those words were more an Good Friday and Easter but my attitude about alarm than an announcement to me and my it has evolved a bit. Lent, in my opinion, contemporaries when I was younger.... much, should be a time of joyful anticipation, not much younger. The gleeful days of our artificial deprivation. Those who promote the childhood became darker during Lent, a latter, I think, have missed the point. The period of time that imposed on us a series of Church and its liturgy does not teach disaster deprivations and sacrifices that seemed merely or promote a theory of spiritual elitism but the routine and without much meaning. No good news of God’s infinite grace and wonder that Lent came on with gloom and forgiveness.

  • General History the Diocese of Vincennes—Now the Archdiocese of Indianapolis—Was Established by Pope Gregory XVI on May 6, 1834
    General History The Diocese of Vincennes—now the Archdiocese of Indianapolis—was established by Pope Gregory XVI on May 6, 1834. The territory then comprised the entire state of Indiana and the eastern third of Illinois. The latter was separated from the Diocese of Vincennes upon the establishment of the Diocese of Chicago, November 28, 1843. By decree of Pope Pius IX, January 8, 1857, the northern half of the state became the Diocese of Fort Wayne, the boundaries being that part of the state north of the south boundaries of Fountain, Montgomery, Boone, Hamilton, Madison, Delaware, Randolph, and Warren counties. The remaining southern half of the state made up the Diocese of Vincennes, embracing 50 counties. It covered an area of 18,479 square miles extending from the north boundaries of Marion and contiguous counties to the Ohio River and from Illinois on the west to Ohio on the east. The second bishop of Vincennes was permitted by apostolic brief to establish his resi- dence at Vincennes, Madison, Lafayette, or Indianapolis; Vincennes was, however, to remain the see city. This permission, with the subtraction of Lafayette, was renewed to the fourth bishop. Upon his appointment in 1878, Bishop Francis Chatard, the fifth bishop of Vincennes, was directed to fix his residence at Indianapolis. Although the site of the cathedral and the title of the see were continued at Vincennes, Bishop Chatard used St. John the Evangelist Parish in Indianapolis as an unofficial cathedral until the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul was completed in 1907. St. John the Evangelist Parish, established in 1837, was the first parish in Indianapolis and Marion County.
