    YEARS OF STORM & STRESS Joseph Matt & Americanism with a commentary and notes by Paul Likoudis on Matt's “A Centenary of Catholic Life in Minnesota” published by The Wanderer, January – August 2012 From January to August 2012, The Wanderer published, and offered commentary, on a remarkable series of 36 articles written by this newspaper's long-serving editor Joseph Matt (1877-1966) in 1950-'51 on Americanism, “the German question,” and subjects related to “Cahenslyism,” named after the German Catholic layman Peter Paul Cahensly, who devoted himself to the aid of German-Catholic immigrants. In this series of articles, Joseph Matt told the German-American Catholics' side of the story of what the late Monsignor George Kelly would call the “Battle for the American Church”; i.e. German Catholic opposition to the nascent modernism in Americanism and the Americanist hierarchy's determination to assimilate German Catholics into the American melting pot. As a sort of prelude to this series, we will enter the field of German-American Catholic historiography with some snips from a paper read by University of Chicago historian Kathleen Neils Conzen at the first Edmund Spevack Memorial Lecture at Harvard University, November 7, 2003, which touches on many of the issues we will see Joseph Matt discussing in that series of 36 articles sixty years ago, as he reflected back on the battles of the of the late 19th and early 20th centuries: “....Catholicism has long seemed like an embarrassing guest at the table of American historiography,” observed Conzen, “best ignored in the hope that it will not make a disturbing fuss.

  • Catalog 2015-2016
    Catalog 2015-2016 History Remembering the burdens and obstacles he encountered on his own journey to the priesthood, orphanage founder Monsignor John Joseph Jessing, a German immigrant and priest, wanted to give boys who were without financial means a way to answer their calling to the priesthood. In September 1888, he accepted 23 young men, and the College Josephinum, named for his patron, Saint Joseph, was established. On December 12, 1892, Pope Leo XIII granted pontifical status to the college, recognizing the growing importance the American continent held for the continuing spread of the gospel. From its original campus on East Main Street in downtown Columbus, the Pontifical College Josephinum moved to its present location on North High Street in 1931.

DiNardo of Galveston-Houston, is encourag- ing Catholics across the nation to join with Pope Francis Feb. 23, for a special “Day of Prayer and Fasting for Peace.” The day of prayer and fasting will focus on continued conflicts in troubled areas of the world. Reflecting on the suffering caused by violent conflict, Pope Francis said, “Our heavenly Father always listens to his children who cry to him in sorrow and anguish, who ‘heals the broken- hearted and binds up their wounds’ (Ps 147:3). I make a heartfelt appeal so that we also listen to this cry and, each one of us in his/her own con- science before God, ask ourselves, ‘What can I do for peace?’” Cardinal DiNardo went on to say, “Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has called us to observe a special ‘Day of Prayer and Fasting for Peace,’ as Lent begins, with a particular concern for the Democratic Republic of Congo and South Sudan.

  • Chapter 2 Affected Environment
    PORT COLUMBUS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FAR PART 150 NOISE COMPATIBILITY STUDY FINAL CHAPTER TWO AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT Airports and aircraft operations generally have direct benefits and impacts on surrounding communities as aviation activity is inherently intertwined with its neighbors. This includes both positive and negative impacts. Identifying and evaluating land uses surrounding an airport is an important step in quantifying potential impacts through the Part 150 process. This evaluation identifies the residential and other noise-sensitive land uses around the Port Columbus International Airport (CMH). A discussion of the land use mapping methodology and zoning information is provided in Appendix D, Land Use Methodology. 2.1 AIRPORT LOCATION CMH is located on the eastern edge of the City of Columbus, to the north of the cities of Bexley and Whitehall and west of the City of Gahanna and Jefferson Township. These jurisdictions generally share both the benefits and the potentially negative impacts of airport operations at CMH, and therefore, are the subject of the land use evaluation in this study. 2.1.1 COLUMBUS REGIONAL AIRPORT AUTHORITY CMH is operated by the Columbus Regional Airport Authority (CRAA), which sets the policies under which the airport is operated. The CRAA is an independent governmental entity responsible for the operation of CMH as well as Rickenbacker International Airport (LCK) and Bolton Field Airport (TZR). The creation of the CRAA was a result of a merger between the Columbus Municipal Airport Authority and the Rickenbacker Port Authority (RPA) on January 1, 2003. A Board of Directors is the governing body of the CRAA and is composed of nine business and community leaders.
