  • Jordan Seminary
    The Many Menominee Manifestations (Try saying that three times fast!) The USA Province of the Society of the Divine Savior has a lengthy history of buying “unique” properties that most people would NEVER think about for religious usage. We turned them into religious places anyway! Two provincials in particular – Fr. Bede Friedrich (1931-1936 / 1939-1947) and Fr. Paul Schuster (1953-1959) – had a knack for finding odd establishments and envisioning religious uses for them. (Many of those stories are already familiar and have been written about in some of our past Archives’ history pages: a “Buffalo Farm” became a seminary; a mud-bath resort was turned into a college; a dairy was transformed into a parish; a resort hotel – turned “National Swine Palace” – became our Novitiate; and an army barracks was used for a boys’ high school.) Another such property that underwent numerous transformations was in Menominee, Michigan. In this small city on the border of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and the state of Wisconsin, a set of buildings near the county’s tiny airport saw a variety of uses over the years – not just before the Salvatorians purchased it, but even while we owned it! Menominee County School of Agriculture – 1907-1929 Built in 1907, this county school was authorized by the state legislature to develop scientific agricultural methods for the farmers in the Upper Peninsula. Until 1925, when the economic situation across the country began to shift, the school was operated under county supervision and with county funds. The state took over the operations for the next four years, but the failing economy that would lead to the Great Depression forced even the state to close the school in 1929.

  • Manna Magazine
    SPREADING THE FAITH THROUGH FAMILY & CHILDREN’S MAGAZINES – Part I – “MANNA” Father Francis Jordan and the Apostolate of the Press For our Founder, Father Francis Jordan, one of the most important aspects of spreading the faith was through the use of printed materials. This was one of his main reasons for initiating the movement that would one day become the Salvatorian Family. In his homeland, the government was making every attempt to have the influence of the Church diminished. Church schools had been closed and preaching was limited solely to church services. To combat what he feared would be a great religious ignorance, Jordan desired to spread the faith through publications. If the Church was limited in teaching its faith, then he would get the message into the hands of families, parents and children so that their faith could grow. These magazines would help the parents to teach their own children about God, the Church, the message of faith, and how to practice their faith in a growingly more complicated and secular world. Der Missionaer - Fr. Bonaventure Luethen (Fr. Jordan’s “right-hand man”) was commissioned in 1881 by Fr. Jordan to create a periodical for the promotion of his new foundation, which he first called “The Apostolic Teaching Society.” For many years, Der Missionaer – “The Missionary” - was the official publication of the community, and it was meant to promote fervor among both religious and laity. Luethen remained editor and publisher of Der Missionaer until his death in 1911. Manna was first published in 1884. It was written for children.
