    El Futuro De Nuestro Pasado

    EL FUTURO DE NUESTRO PASADO Mario J. Paredes El Pasado.... La historia de la gestación y el establecimiento del catolicismo doscientos años atrás, en lo que hoy son los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica, especialmente en el Norte y concretamente en Nueva York, estuvo marcada de heroísmo por las enormes pruebas, rechazos, humillaciones y oposiciones que tuvo que enfrentar, los grandes sacrificios y luchas que tuvo que dar, como consecuencia del anti catolicismo intolerante, violento y perseguidor imperante en la época, protagonizado por otras iglesias cristianas provenientes de Europa y establecidas aquí con anterioridad. Han transcurrido dos siglos desde que John Carroll, (1735 – 1815) primer obispo católico en los Estados Unidos, pidiera a Roma la creación de nuevas diócesis y que, respondiendo a esta solicitud pastoral, el Papa Pío VII erigiera por Decreto a Nueva York como Diócesis en abril 8 de 1808, junto a Filadelfia, Boston y Bardstown. Estas cuatro diócesis se desprenden de la única iglesia particular fundada por entonces en la República de los Estados Unidos nacidos después de 1776: la Diócesis de Baltimore que, a su vez, había sido fundada como tal en 1789 convirtiéndose así, en la primera Diócesis de la República nacida en 1776 y hoy, reconocida como la sede primada de los Estados Unidos. Richard Luke Concanen, un fraile dominico irlandés fue nombrado primer Obispo de Nueva York. Pero camino de Roma (donde pasó gran parte de su vida) a Nueva York falleció en la ciudad de Nápoles. Nunca llegó a tomar posesión de su sede episcopal por lo cual el primer obispo residente en Nueva York lo fue el John Connolly, O.P miembro de la Orden de Predicadores al igual que su predecesor.

    Award-Winning Veteran Catholic Journalist Gerald ‘

    Award-winning veteran Catholic journalist Gerald ‘Jerry’ Costello dies POMPTON PLAINS, N.J. (CNS) — Gerald “Jerry” Michael Costello, a Catholic press veteran who was a reporter, columnist, book author and founding editor of three newspapers, died July 19 after a five-year struggle with Parkinson’s disease. He was 90. His funeral Mass will be celebrated July 23 at Holy Spirit Church in Pequannock, New Jersey, followed by burial at Our Lady of Magnificat Cemetery in Kinnelon, New Jersey. Costello founded Catholic New York, newspaper of the Archdiocese of New York, in 1981; The Beacon, newspaper of the Diocese of Paterson, New Jersey, in 1966; and Suburban Trends, a weekly that began in Riverdale, New Jersey, in 1958. His writing informed readers about international, national and local Catholic news for over 60 years. “As the founding editor in chief, Jerry Costello put his personal stamp of excellence on Catholic New York’s weekly product from the beginning and made it a standard-bearer for the Catholic press,” said John Woods, the newspaper’s editor- in-chief. “He was often out front on the biggest stories of his era writing with a clear, concise and authoritative style all his own.” Costello and the late Anne Buckley, who was a co-founder of Catholic new York and its editor-in-chief 1991 to 2000, “formed the best one-two set of editors I have ever seen at one diocesan publication,” Woods added. Msgr. Owen F. Campion, a former associate publisher of Our Sunday Visitor and a former editor of the Tennessee Register, newspaper of the Diocese of Nashville, said Costello’s passing “closes a lifetime of extraordinary service to the Church.” “As founding editor of Catholic New York, he created a diocesan newspaper that, from its first edition, took a place of excellence, in every sense, in American Catholic communications,” the priest said.

    Courage to Celebrate 40 Years of Ministry, Moves Yearly Conference Online

    June 30, 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Courage to celebrate 40 years of ministry, moves yearly conference online Media coordinator: Ann Schneible, director of communications [email protected] Office: +1 (203) 916-1156 (Trumbull, CT) In response to safety concerns relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, Courage International will kick off its 40th anniversary celebrations with an online webinar, instead of an in-person conference as originally planned, for members, chaplains, and friends of the apostolate. Set to take place over Zoom on July 25-26, the theme of the 2020 Courage and EnCourage Conference is “40 Years of Courage: A Legacy of Hope”, marking four decades of pastoral care for men and women who experience same-sex attractions (SSA). “This year's anniversary offers us a chance to celebrate the witness of our members, whose bravery and resilience should be an inspiration to every Christian who wishes to fully understand and live the virtue of chastity,” said Father Philip Bochanski, executive director of Courage International. The Courage apostolate was founded by Fr. John Harvey, OSFS in September 1980 at the request of the late Cardinal Terence Cooke, then the archbishop of New York City. “Over these past 40 years, we've seen Courage grow from humble beginnings with a few members in a small Manhattan office, to an international apostolate with chapters in nearly 20 countries,” Father Bochanski said. The Courage and EnCourage conference, which is held annually, was originally set to take place at the University of Saint Mary of the Lake (also known as Mundelein Seminary) in Mundelein, IL from July 23- 26, 2020.

    July 30, 2020 CATHOLIC NEW YORK 13 FINANCIAL SERVICES REPORT Fiscal Year Ended August 31, 2019 ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK Dear friends in the Lord, This July, after many months of unaccustomed urban stillness because of the pandemic, I hear the welcome sounds of traffic outside my window. I am delighted that most of our parishes have reopened for the regular celebration of the sacraments, even as we practice social-distancing. I am energized by the steps we have taken to get back together as a wor- shipping community to practice our faith and put it into action. I am pleased to be able to share this comprehensive financial report with you for the eleventh time. This report reflects the central works of the Archdiocese of New York in the year be- fore the COVID-19 crisis changed our daily lives. But as I read it, I am impressed that accomplishments in every area last year prepared us for the outstanding responses we have been able to make to people impacted by the virus. Our pastors reached out to their people through Flocknotes and parish websites to announce they would be celebrating live-streamed Masses from their empty churches. Priest chaplains volun- teered to be part of a self-contained team to visit the sick, comfort the dying and offer solace to health care workers in crowded hospitals and nursing homes. Our Arch- Care program, already well known throughout the archdiocese, expanded its efforts to serve and engage seniors isolated at home.
