(December 2011) William Francis Collopy, B.A., Iona College; M.L.A., University of St. Thomas Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Harold C. Livesay The dissertation argues that Catholicism’s theology and sacramentalism constituted the foundation of a ministry that from Reconstruction through the 1930s extended the religion’s reach in the U.S. beyond its historical loci of numerical strength and influence to African American communities in the South. The dissertation draws on decrees of the Council of Trent, papal encyclicals, pastoral letters, theological treatises, and Catholic interpretation of Judeo-Christian scripture to demonstrate that the Church’s beliefs manifestly shaped its African American ministry.

  • Xaverians World-Wide Ryken's Vision Theodore James Ryken Was Born
    Xaverians World-wide Ryken's vision Theodore James Ryken was born in 1797 in the small village of Elshout, North Brabant, the Netherlands, to ardently Catholic middle class parents. Orphaned at a young age, Ryken was raised by his uncle. Ryken was trained as a shoemaker. He felt a calling by God which drew him to work first as a catechist, followed by helping manage an orphanage, and later by caring for cholera patients in the Netherlands. At age 34, Ryken went to North America, where he served as a catechist among the missionaries to the Native Americans. During his three-year tour, he conceived the idea of starting a congregation of brothers to work alongside the missionary priests. On returning to Europe, he set about planning to found such a society in Belgium, a country eminent for missionary zeal. Founding When Ryken returned to the US in 1837, he decided that the children of Catholic immigrants were more in need of instruction than were those of Native Americans. Bishop Rosati of St. Louis, Missouri encouraged him to found a congregation of laymen to teach all classes of youth. Six other bishops sanctioned his plan to bring religious teachers to the United States. Ryken served a term of probation in the novitiate of the Redemptorist Fathers to prepare to go to Rome to receive the permission and blessing of Pope Gregory XVI for his mission. He modelled the religious garb of members of his institute after that of the Redemptorists. The spirit of the Xaverian Brothers, on the other hand, can be traced to the influence of Rev.

  • The Church in Harrodsburg1
    THE CHURCH IN HARRODSBURG1 VICTOR FRANCIS O'DANIEL, O.P. THE REV. GABRIEL GERMANN, O.S.B. Saint Andrew's Rectory, Harrodsburg, Kentucky January 14, 1948 Dear Father Germann : I am now an octogenarian, minus a few weeks. Your letter of December 15, 1947, found me in a hospital from which I returned home during the Olristmas times, and am now trying to regain my strength. It is coming back very, very slowly. For these reasons, you must not expect too much from me. Years ago I made notes from a number of talks with an old friend, now dead, who as a boy lived in Danville and often accompanied the fathers of Saint Rose's, par­ ticularly Father Joseph Thomas Ryan, on their journeys from Dan­ ville to Harrodsburg and other places. What I write you now is largely taken from those notes. I could also send you a copy of them, as they might perchance be of some help to you for your proposed good work ; but, I think, it will hardly be necessary. Catholicity in Harrodsburg is an almost untouched field, because, of course, there were long but very few of the faith there and in the vicinity. Bishop Spalding's Early Catholic Missions in Kentucky, Fa­ ther (later Bishop) Maes' Life of Father Charles N erinckx, and Ben Webb's Ceu.te1wry of Catholicit·y in Kentucky barely mention Har­ rodsburg. You witt find something of a list of the early missions of Kentucky in these three works. One is also given on pages 78-79 of my Life of Bishop Edward DomitJic Fe1Jwick, O.P.

  • The American Catholic Church's Battle for Acceptance
    Fenianism in Irish Catholic Philadelphia: The American Catholic Church's Battle for Acceptance Maureen Whitsett Honors Thesis History Department Temple University March 20, 2008 Introduction The air was thick with anticipation on the evening of May 23, 1864 as thousands crowded into the meeting hall and others still poured out onto the street. The ftrebrand priest Father Patrick Eugene Moriarty was to deliver an oration "What Right Has England to Rule in Ireland?" to a crowd of eager, flag-waving Irish patriots. After being warmly received by the crowd, Moriarty provoked them, asking, ''Will you obey the rule of the tyrant?" to which the crowd vehemently and repetitively screamed "No[" The crowd hung on his every word as he ranted against tyranny, methodically de-legitimized British rule in Ireland, and recounted the Irish history of subjugation to the perftdious crown. Newspapers the following day lauded the success of the talented orator; they remembered his powerful demeanor, "his brow radiant with the glow of genius," and his passionate defense of the Irish revolutionary cause. 1 The delivery of this oration was more than celebrated; it incurred the wrath of the local Bishop and sparked a controversy that would challenge the very cohesiveness of the community and the resolve of the Irish Catholic population. What seems like a scene from a meetinghouse in Ireland actually transpired on American soil in Philadelphia in the midst of the American Civil War. The Irish had already ftrmly settled in Philadelphia and established numerous parishes and Catholic schools by 1864 as the Civil War raged on, and many Irish families had sent eager sons to the battlefteld to swell the Union ranks.

When Bishop Quarter arrived in Chicago in 1844, there was one Catholic Church and two Catholic Priests. With this background, he began to build.
