  • The Catholic Foundation 2018 ANNUAL REPORT the Catholic Foundation
    The Catholic Foundation 2018 ANNUAL REPORT the Catholic Foundation 2018 ANNUAL REPORT THEME: Two Sides to Every Story Produced by The Catholic Foundation Published by Hopkins Printing 2018 A LETTER FROM OUR CEO Dear Friends, The theme of this year’s Annual Report is “Two Sides To Every Story”. You will read stories of the Holy Spirit at work inspiring and motivating those who give and those who receive. These stories represent the very best and sometimes the humblest of people. We share these stories so that the Holy Spirit may inspire, educate, and hopefully motivate others to realize they can also give. Many people are under the impression that only the wealthy can give in an impactful way to the causes and organizations they care about. These stories will show how someone’s desire to give, and served by The Catholic Foundation’s ability to facilitate that desire, has not only made dreams come true but has furthered the core values of our Catholic faith. Blessed Mother Teresa said, “If you can’t feed a hundred people, feed just one.” One person or one gift can affect many lives. I ask that you read each story and connect with the people who gave and the people who have received. See how you can relate to their stories, their willingness to give, and their determination to make our Catholic faith and communities stronger. At The Catholic Foundation, we are here to ensure that your intentions and aspirations are met. We can create a custom, charitable plan that is carried out in a way that fits your goals and needs.

  • Reconciled Through Christ
    Reconciled On Reconciliation and Greater Collaboration Between Through Hispanic American Catholics and African American Catholics CHRIST Committee on Cultural Diversity in the Church United States Conference of Catholic Bishops 2 English Edition2 RECONCILED THROUGH CHRIST On Reconciliation and Greater Collaboration Between Hispanic American Catholics and African American Catholics He is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he himself might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile all things for him, making peace by the blood of his cross [through him], whether those on earth or those in heaven. (Col 1:18-20) United States Catholic Conference • Washington, D.C. The NCCB Committee on African American Catholics and the NCCB Committee on Hispanic Affairs have been in dialogue for several years about the positive relationship—and the tensions—that often exist between both communities. In their dialogue, the committees have discussed their common cultural roots; their common histories; their leaders, heroes, and heroines; their challenges and dreams; and the need to work for the common good in the Church and in society. The committees worked on developing Reconciled Through Christ with the intent of making the Church more aware of and sensitive to the need for collaboration and reconciliation. The document, prepared by both committees, is particularly directed at the pastoral leadership that works with the African American Catholic and the Hispanic Catholic who together share many similar challenges. In Septem- ber 1996, the Administrative Committee of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops approved the bilingual publication of Reconciled Through Christ, which is authorized for publication by the undersigned.

Historical Note Founded in 1944, the Catholic Interracial Council of St. Louis was the third of its kind in the United States. Formed by clergy and lay people, the Council was under jurisdiction of the Archbishop and affiliated with the Archdiocesan Councils of Catholic Men and Catholic Women. The first spiritual moderator was Rev. Patrick J. Molloy, an activist and leader in integration and racial equality. Council activities were aimed at equality in education, labor, housing, public places, athletics and religion. The Council undertook surveys, attended legislative hearings, met with businesses and associations, and networked with other faith-based groups in St. Louis. It paved the way for the development of the Commission on Human Rights, at which point it dissolved.

  • The Hank Center for the Catholic Intellectual Heritage
    The Hank Center for the Catholic Intellectual Heritage February 2015 From the Desk of Fr. Mark Bosco, S.J. Dear Friends and Colleagues, The recently deceased Chicago priest-sociologist, Andrew Greeley, was responsible for promoting research around what he called the "Catholic Imagination." Having taken insights from the work of many scholars and sociological data, he explored the sacramental nature of Catholicism and its impact on material culture. The academy owes a debt of gratitude to Fr. Greeley, for his work has opened up new ways for us to explore our Catholic heritage. One of his great insights--that there is an imaginative structure to Catholic faith, embodied in material reality--is being duly explored this coming month at the Hank Center. In March, the Center will, among our many events, host two events of special note, events that celebrate the textures of a Catholic imagination. The first of these events is a one- night performance of Everything That Rises Must Converge, a short story by that most famous of Catholic writers, Flannery O'Connor. Brought to the stage by the renowned New York director, Karin Coonrod, this adaptation of O'Connor's story has been performed off- Broadway and at many university stages across the country--including Yale, Georgetown, and Emory. This will be the first time her production will be performed in Chicago. A week later, CCIH will celebrate the Catholic imagination through the prism of Latino/a culture. This colloquium, part of Loyola's celebration of Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi (President of the Pontifical Council for Culture and the Pontifical Commission of Sacred Archeology), will bring together eight renowned Latino/a theologians from around the U.S.
