  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church
    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.

  • Bishop Mcquaid and Archbishop Ireland: School Controversy Or
    Bishop McQuaid And Archbishop Ireland: School Controversy Or Otherwise? by Jeffrey S. Tunnicliff Theological College Rev. David D. Thayer, S.S. December 28, 2008 I. Introduction Today, many Catholic parochial schools are facing declining enrollment and lack of funding. This naturally leads to the question, ‘Do we really need parochial schools?’ This is not a new question. In fact, the necessity of parochial schools was a central issue facing the Catholic Church in America during the Nineteenth Century. It seemingly strikes at the core of the Catholic School Controversy that erupted in the 1890’s. Two of the leading bishops in the controversy representing opposing sides were Bishop Bernard J. McQuaid of Rochester and Archbishop John Ireland of St. Paul. McQuaid enjoyed the support of Archbishop Michael Corrigan of New York while Ireland had the support of Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore. Beginning in the 1870’s McQuaid was a regular lecturer on the need for Catholic Schools. Ireland was a bishop of a ‘frontier’ diocese and an avid supporter of Americanization. He sought to help Catholic immigrants become good American citizens and thus saw the ideal as Catholics attending public schools. For Ireland, parochial schools were only necessary because the public schools failed in their responsibilities. A controversy is never simple. This paper will examine the controversy between Archbishop Ireland and Bishop McQuaid. It will present the background on each bishop and the circumstances that helped shape their position on the need for Catholic Schools. In order to do this, we must first understand the setting of the Catholic Church in America leading up to the eruption of the controversy in the 1890’s.

  • General History the Diocese of Vincennes—Now the Archdiocese of Indianapolis—Was Established by Pope Gregory XVI on May 6, 1834
    General History The Diocese of Vincennes—now the Archdiocese of Indianapolis—was established by Pope Gregory XVI on May 6, 1834. The territory then comprised the entire state of Indiana and the eastern third of Illinois. The latter was separated from the Diocese of Vincennes upon the establishment of the Diocese of Chicago, November 28, 1843. By decree of Pope Pius IX, January 8, 1857, the northern half of the state became the Diocese of Fort Wayne, the boundaries being that part of the state north of the south boundaries of Fountain, Montgomery, Boone, Hamilton, Madison, Delaware, Randolph, and Warren counties. The remaining southern half of the state made up the Diocese of Vincennes, embracing 50 counties. It covered an area of 18,479 square miles extending from the north boundaries of Marion and contiguous counties to the Ohio River and from Illinois on the west to Ohio on the east. The second bishop of Vincennes was permitted by apostolic brief to establish his resi- dence at Vincennes, Madison, Lafayette, or Indianapolis; Vincennes was, however, to remain the see city. This permission, with the subtraction of Lafayette, was renewed to the fourth bishop. Upon his appointment in 1878, Bishop Francis Chatard, the fifth bishop of Vincennes, was directed to fix his residence at Indianapolis. Although the site of the cathedral and the title of the see were continued at Vincennes, Bishop Chatard used St. John the Evangelist Parish in Indianapolis as an unofficial cathedral until the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul was completed in 1907. St. John the Evangelist Parish, established in 1837, was the first parish in Indianapolis and Marion County.
