It was your intrepid spirit that called forth a Company of Jesus Christ to do battle for Him. To these ranks the Divine Captain has called each one of us. Were it not for you, Ignatius of Loyola, there would be no long line of regiments to lead us on; and no glorious heritage of forefathers for the past four hundred years to hand us down their honored shields. They have fallen as heroes in the battle that we, too, may be valiant of heart. Gratefully and prayerfully we plead: make us worthy of you, Ignatius, and of those who have lived and died for Christ. Give us the grace in sacrifice and suffering to emulate our Saints and martyrs. Their record is a scroll of glory for you: make it for us your sons of today a clarion challenge to achieve' ment. Make us, Father, humble and prayerful: take from us the seeds of self-glorifying satisfaction in the warfare we have waged, and grant to us the same Divine restlessness that enflamed your heart, and the irresistible ardor that was yours when four hundred years ago you cried, Ad maiorem Dei Gloriam.

  • Most Reverend Joseph John Fox, Fifth Bishop of Green Bay (1904-1914)
    Most Reverend Joseph John Fox (1904-1914) Paul and Catherine (Bartell) Fox came to America in 1840 and were among the first German settlers in Green Bay. They were two of the most energetic and persistent 19th Catholics of northern Wisconsin, helping to found St. Mary Parish (Green Bay). (St. Mary would become St. Francis Xavier Cathedral.) Joseph Fox, their third child, became the fifth Bishop of the Diocese of Green Bay and the only native son to be an ordinary of the diocese. He had an older sister, Cecilia, who became the prioress of the Dominican convent in Racine, Wisconsin. He completed his elementary education at the pro-cathedral (old St. Mary) before enrolling in the classics at St. Francis Seminary in Milwaukee. His studied philosophy in Bastogne, Belgium, where he became proficient in French. He studied theology at the American College at the University of Louvain, Belgium. On June 7, 1879, Joseph Fox was ordained to the priesthood for the Diocese of Green Bay. His first assignment was as pastor of St. Kilian Parish, New Franken. In May 1880, he was called back to Green Bay to be the secretary to Bishop Krautbauer and pastor of St. John Parish, Green Bay. He served for three years. Highlights of this pastorate included construction of the St. John Rectory, opening of St. John School, and reducing a troublesome parish debt. ,For the next 11 years--- beginning on August 31, 1883--- Father Fox served as pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish in Marinette, where he served with a large number of French Canadian people.

  • Episcopal Church Style Guide
    Episcopal Church Style Guide The official name of the church is The Episcopal Church. When writing about the Episcopal Church, please follow these guidelines: * In the first reference, the full name of the church is preferred: The Episcopal Church. * When referring to church members, the term “Episcopalians” is preferred. We elect a Presiding Bishop, who is our chief pastor and primate of the church. Chosen by the House of Bishops from one of its members, the Presiding Bishop serves for nine years, or until normal retirement age, if that occurs first. In formal usage, he or she is known as “The Most Reverend”,” usually abbreviated to “The Most Rev.” His or her first name (or preferred forename) is always used, together with an initial if applicable (e.g., “The Most Rev. John A. Smith”, or “The Most Rev. A. John Smith”). All other bishops should be addressed as above, but using the form “The Rt. Rev.” Priests and deacons are referred to as “The Rev.” Our church is organized into dioceses, and there is at least one diocese in each state. However, some states have two or more dioceses. For example, we have a Diocese of New Jersey, but in the northern part of the state there is a Diocese of Newark. Likewise, there is a Diocese of Texas, but there are several other dioceses in that state. The Bishop with jurisdiction of a diocese is usually known as the “diocesan bishop”, and is sometimes known as the “Ordinary.” He or she may have other bishops to assist, who are referred to as “bishops suffragan” and are elected in the same way that bishops are, by representatives of the members of the diocese.

  • Inhabiting New France: Bodies, Environment and the Sacred, C.1632-C.1700
    Inhabiting New France: Bodies, Environment and the Sacred, c.1632-c.1700 Robin Macdonald PhD University of York History September 2015 2 Abstract The historiography of colonial and ‘religious’ encounters in New France has tended to focus on encounters between human beings, between ‘colonisers’ and ‘colonised’ or ‘natives’ and ‘newcomers’. This thesis will focus on encounters between people and environment. Drawing on recent anthropology, notably the work of Tim Ingold, it will argue that whilst bodies shaped environment, environment also could shape bodies – and their associated religious practices. Through the examination of a broad variety of source materials – in particular, the Jesuit Relations – this thesis will explore the myriad ways in which the sacred was created and experienced between c.1632 and c.1700. Beginning with the ocean crossing to New France – an area largely unexplored in the historiographical literature – it will argue that right from the outset of a missionary’s journey, his or her practices were shaped by encounters with both humans and non-humans, by weather or the stormy Ocean Sea. Reciprocally, it will argue, missionary bodies and practices could shape these environments. Moving next to the mission terrain, it will analyse a variety spaces – both environmental and imaginary – tracing the slow build up of belief through habitual practices. Finally, it will chart the movement of missionaries and missionary correspondence from New France back to France. It was not only missionaries, it will argue, who could experience
