  • Bishop Barnes of San Bernardino Retires; Coadjutor Bishop Rojas Succeeds Him
    Bishop Barnes of San Bernardino retires; Coadjutor Bishop Rojas succeeds him WASHINGTON (CNS) (Updated) — Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of Bishop Gerald R. Barnes of San Bernardino, California, and Coadjutor Bishop Alberto Rojas immediately succeeds him. Bishop Barnes has headed the diocese since 1996. In June, he turned 75, the age at which canon law requires bishops to turn their resignation into the pope. Bishop Rojas had been an auxiliary bishop of the Chicago Archdiocese since 2011 when Pope Francis named him as coadjutor for San Bernardino Dec. 3, 2019. The Mexican-born bishop relocated to California’s Inland Empire diocese, as it’s known, in February. Bishop Barnes’ resignation was announced in Washington Dec. 28 by Archbishop Christophe Pierre, apostolic nuncio to the United States. Bishop Alberto Rojas. CNS In a Dec. 28 statement, Bishop Rojas said he would “like to build on the momentum that is clearly present” in the diocese and would not make any “big changes right away.” “There is no doubt, when looking at the events of this past year, that I am coming to lead the diocese at a very challenging time,” he said, but he added that he has already witnessed the strong and committed faith of the diocesan Catholics. He said in his years of ministry, in the seminary and as a priest and bishop in Chicago, he encountered many new challenges but he “always trusted in God’s plan for me to serve his church, and that he will give me all that I need to do his work.” Bishop Rojas was born Jan.

  • History of St. Pancratius Parish. St
    History of St. Pancratius Parish. St. Pancratius Church Dedication, May 8, 1960. CAP at Orchard Lake. Prior to March 9, 1924, the present area of St. Pancratius parish was a part of Five Holy Martyrs Parish, which was established in the Brighton Park Area in 1909. Since the majority of the Catholics of Polish descent had originally settled in the shadow of Crane Company, between Kedzie and California Avenues and between Pershing Road and Ar- cher Avenue, Rev. Joseph Kruszka, the founding Pastor of Five Holy Martyrs, decided to build a parochial combination school and church building on 41st Street between Albany Avenue and Kedzie Avenue (38th Street was then the main business street of the area). While the building was being constructed, Sunday Masses were celebrated in the auditorium of Davis Public School located on 39th Street between Albany and Sacramento Avenues. From 1909 until 1919 the two-story structure on 41st Street served as Five Holy Martyrs Church (second floor) and School (first floor). By 1919 the main business center shifted to Archer Avenue and the area south of Archer Avenue began to develop rapidly. A new Five Holy Martyrs Church and School were built that year at 43rd Street and Richmond Avenue, and the old building on 41st Street was used as a parochial hall (second floor) and a temporary auxiliary school (first floor). It was a convenient arrangement for the Catholics living south of Archer Avenue, but Catholics north of Archer Avenue began to beseech His Eminence George Cardinal Mundelein to establish a parish in their midst.

  • We Remember St, Christopher Parish
    We Remember St, Christopher Parish Community initiative has always played a major role in the continuing development of St. Christopher Parish. On February 26, 1922, Roy Swillum, Raphael Griffin and Frank Kosowski visited the Franciscan Fathers at the St. Roch Friary in Oak Forest. II., to discuss the feasibility of starting a new parish. They represented Catholic families living in the Midlothian district who found it difficult to attend Mass in Blue Island or Oak Forest and desired a religious education for their children. The group felt positive that they could build and support a church. Subsequently, Archbishop George W. Mundelein created the parish of St. Christopher and placed it in the hands of the Franciscan Fathers on March 24, 1922. The Very Reverend Martin Strub, OFM. Provincial of the Sacred Heart Province designated Rev. Frances S. Eckholt OFM as the first pastor. During the next month, the new parish rented the Community Hall on the second floor of the Woerheide building, l47th and Kolin for $10.00 a month. Sam Wilson's General Store, formerly Peterman's, occupied the ground floor. Originally, Woerheide farm workers lived in the building. Parishioners constructed a collapsible altar and the Franciscan Fathers loaned the parish a Chaplain's Mass-kit. Wooden benches, without back rests or kneelers, provided seats for 80 people. Fr. Francis celebrated the first Mass on April 23, 1922. The congregation, 32 adults and 18 children, contributed $40.00 to the collection. Approximately 30 families, totaling 73 adults and 58 children, comprised the first parishioners. Ten acres of land on the north side of 147th Street, two blocks west of Crawford, were purchased on August 23 from William J.

  • CATHOLICS and US POLITICS AFTER the 2016 ELECTIONS Understanding the “Swing Vote”
    CATHOLICS AND US POLITICS AFTER THE 2016 ELECTIONS Understanding the “Swing Vote” EDITED BY MARIE GAYTE, BLANDINE CHELINI-PONT, AND MARK J. ROZELL Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy Series editors Ted G. Jelen University of Nevada, Las Vegas Las Vegas, NV, USA Mark J. Rozell George Mason University Fairfax, VA, USA A generation ago, many social scientists regarded religion as an anachronism, whose social, economic, and political importance would inevitably wane and disappear in the face of the inexorable forces of modernity. Of course, nothing of the sort has occurred; indeed, the public role of religion is resurgent in US domestic politics, in other nations, and in the international arena. Today, religion is widely acknowledged to be a key variable in candidate nominations, platforms, and elections; it is recognized as a major infuence on domestic and foreign policies. National religious movements as diverse as the Christian Right in the United States and the Taliban in Afghanistan are important factors in the internal politics of particular nations. Moreover, such transna- tional religious actors as Al-Qaida, Falun Gong, and the Vatican have had important effects on the politics and policies of nations around the world. Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy serves a growing niche in the dis- cipline of political science. This subfeld has proliferated rapidly during the past two decades, and has generated an enormous amount of scholarly studies and journalistic coverage. In 2006, the journal Politics and Religion was created; in addition, works relating to religion and politics have been the subject of many articles in more general academic journals.
