Contemporary challenges are great, but that they can be Cardinal Daniel N. addressed without DiNardo anger and with love Cardinal Daniel N. DiNardo of Galveston-Houston said in his first address as USCCB president during the bishops’ fall general assembly. “We are facing a time that seems more divided than ever,” Cardinal DiNardo said. “Divisions over health care, conscience protections, immigration and refugees, abortion, physician-assisted suicide, gender ideologies, the meaning of marriage and all the other headlines continue to be hotly debated. But our role continues to be witnessing the Gospel.” See related He explained that column, page 4. the National Catholic War Council, created by the U.S. bishops in 1917 in the response to the world refugee crisis that emerged from World War I and the forerunner to the USCCB, was formed to address great national and international needs at a time not unlike today. He said the history of the Catholic Church in America is full of examples of the work of “holy men and women” responding to social challenges.

  • The Partisan Trajectory of the American Pro-Life Movement: How a Liberal Catholic Campaign Became a Conservative Evangelical Cause
    Religions 2015, 6, 451–475; doi:10.3390/rel6020451 OPEN ACCESS religions ISSN 2077-1444 www.mdpi.com/journal/religions Article The Partisan Trajectory of the American Pro-Life Movement: How a Liberal Catholic Campaign Became a Conservative Evangelical Cause Daniel K. Williams Department of History, University of West Georgia, 1601 Maple St., Carrollton, GA 30118, USA; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-678-839-6034 Academic Editor: Darren Dochuk Received: 25 February 2015 / Accepted: 3 April 2015 / Published: 16 April 2015 Abstract: This article employs a historical analysis of the religious composition of the pro-life movement to explain why the partisan identity of the movement shifted from the left to the right between the late 1960s and the 1980s. Many of the Catholics who formed the first anti-abortion organizations in the late 1960s were liberal Democrats who viewed their campaign to save the unborn as a rights-based movement that was fully in keeping with the principles of New Deal and Great Society liberalism, but when evangelical Protestants joined the movement in the late 1970s, they reframed the pro-life cause as a politically conservative campaign linked not to the ideology of human rights but to the politics of moral order and “family values.” This article explains why the Catholic effort to build a pro-life coalition of liberal Democrats failed after Roe v. Wade, why evangelicals became interested in the antiabortion movement, and why the evangelicals succeeded in their effort to rebrand the pro-life campaign as a conservative cause. Keywords: Pro-life; abortion; Catholic; evangelical; conservatism 1.

  • St. Thomas Apostle Parish Was Formally Organized in 1916. the Fo
    MILESTONES IN THE LIFE OF OUR PARISH (Saint Thomas the Apostle) St. Thomas Apostle Parish was formally organized in 1916. The founders were a mixed group of immigrants, and, the parish-compound they eventually re- alized was built mostly on the nickels and dimes which they could ill afford and on the strong determination to build a House of God they could call their own. Perhaps a short outline of general conditions at that time, will give the reader more understanding of the trials and tribulations of our hardy pioneers, whose labor of love is our priceless inheritance today. European immigration, which had virtually ceased during World War I, be- gan to skyrocket after 1919 until it was sharply curtailed in 1923. On the other hand, a post-war boom was born and grew under the stimulation of installment credit and mechanical inventions, coupled by increasing productivity and demand. With their publications, secular and religious organizations, schools and churches, the immigrant-settlers of Detroit formed well-knit communities in east- ern and western areas. By 1923 immigrant families occupied about one-fourth of the city's one hundred some miles of territory. They were an integral part of "Dynamic Detroit", adding to its growth and affected by its rapidly changing social and economic conditions, contributing to and sharing in its many problems. On this historical-tapestry of Detroit, we wish to point to dates which we feel are most significant in the history of St. Thomas Apostle Parish: 1916 SEPTEMBER 10: Father Stanley S. Skrzycki appointed Pastor of Saint Thomas Apostle Parish, Detroit, Michigan.
