O Copyright by Sister Patricia Tavis, O.P., 2010 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Discernment Process of the Sisters of Saint Dominic Regarding the Continued Sponsorship of Its Secondary Schools The purpose of this dissertation was to examine the factors that a congregation of women religious, the Sisters of Saint Dominic of Caldwell, New Jersey, must consider in order to continue its sponsored relationship and the extent of this sponsored relationship with its secondary educational ministries for the future. This descriptive and historical study examined the following areas: sponsorship, sustainability, change, the Congregation's Conceptual Design Process, and various areas of influence, such as mission, charism, finances, and congregational demographics. The members of the Sisters of Saint Dominic considered each of these areas as they examined the sponsored relationship of the Congregation with the three secondary schools in the study. A review of the literature revealed that there is little written regarding the sponsorship of secondary schools by congregations of women religious. This dissertation utilized a researcher self-constructed survey to determine the factors that that a congregation of women religious must consider in order to continue its sponsored relationship and the extent of this sponsored relationship with its secondary educational ministries for the future. The data was gathered from 139 respondents of the survey, all professed members of the Congregation. The significant findings revealed the following: (a) the Congregation values and holds dear the mission, vision, charism, and heritage of the congregation; (b) the Congregation is committed to stewardship of the heritage, mission, and resources of the congregation; (c) the Congregation believes in collaboration with the laity to share the responsibilities for the mission of the Church through a sponsored relationship with the institutions; (d) sponsorship is a concept that is evolving and needs to be customized to the respective ministries dependent on their nature and purpose; (e) sustainability is broader than finances; and (d) there are canonical and civil responsibilities that must be honored as long as the Congregation stays in a sponsored relationship with the respective secondary schools. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS With gratitude, I acknowledge the many people who assisted me throughout the dissertation process. It is with genuine appreciation that I thank my mentor, Rev. Msgr. Kevin Hanbury, Ed.D. I could have not completed the dissertation without his advice, support, and encouragement. My committee members, Elaine Walker, Ph.D., Sr. Honora Werner, O.P., D.Min., and Sr. Donna Ciangio, O.P., D.Min., graciously gave of their time and provided valuable guidance and direction. Special thanks to William Suriano, Ed.D., my program advisor, for his advice and help throughout my four years of study at Seton Hall University. To Sister Arlene Antczak, O.P., Prioress of the Sisters of Saint Dominic, who invited me to pursue a doctoral degree. I am most grateful for this extraordinary opportunity. My heartfelt gratitude to my sisters and brothers: Cathy and Gerry Perret, Patty and Richard Tavis, and Margie and Brian Tavis, and my nieces and nephews: Kim and Gerard Perret, Suzanne and Kevin McCullough, Kelly and Richard Tavis, Helaine and Shaun Thomas, Ryan Tavis, Christian Tavis, Samantha Tavis, Megan Tavis, and Brian Tavis for their understanding, support, and unfailing love and encouragement. My deep appreciation to Rev. Carl Arico, my teacher, mentor, and friend, for his many kindnesses and words of encouragement throughout the dissertation process.

And last, but certainly, not least, a special thank you to my "study buddies," Mary Dillon and Andrea Duanarummo for their friendship, on-going support, encouragement, and for making class time and all the hours spent in the library, enjoyable. To the rest of my family and friends and anyone whom I may have inadvertently forgotten to mention, your support and willingness to listen helped me immeasurably. Thank you. DEDICATION To my parents, Catherine and Richard Tavis, who instilled in me a love for learning: From their faith, my vocation was nourished. Through their sacrifices, I learned the value of a Catholic school education. By their example, I learned the importance of service to church and school. From their love, I was encouraged to persevere through difficult times. From their love for family, I learned to respect and appreciate others. and To the Sisters of Saint Dominic of Caldwell: Through their support and encouragement they furthered my quest for knowledge in preparation for the next generation of students, Through those sisters who have gone before us, we continue to be enriched by their lifetime efforts to provide quality Catholic education for all, To future generations of Caldwell Dominicans and their students, that they learn from the past, reap the rewards of the present, and look forward to the challenges of the future. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ................................................................................. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ............................................................... v DEDICATION .............................................................................. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS ......................................................................................... viii LIST OF TABLES ...................................................................................................

  • They Came to Serve
    A Chronicle of Women Religious in the Diocese of Dallas 1874-2014 THEY CAME TO SERVE BY SISTER MARY BRIAN BOLE, SSND A 125th Anniversary Publication of the Catholic Diocese of Dallas Archives Introduction Too few people are aware of the courageous sisters who came to serve the Church in Texas in collaboration with the diocesan priests and religious prieests and brothers. Many endured long religious voyages to reach the vineyard to which they had been called. Many died to the dread epidemics of cholera and yellow fever that repeatedly swept over the republic and later the state. Others died protecting the orphans at St. Mary’s Orphanage in Galveston in 1900. Long before our diocese was established in 1890 Ursuline Nuns, Daughters of Charity, Holy Cross Sisters and Sisters of St. Mary Namur had established schools, hospitals and academies in what would become the Dallas diocese. They were but the vanguard of the thousands of women religious from 63 communities who came to serve and are still serving God in this corner of his vineyard. Sister Mary Brian Bole, SSND, gives a glimpse of the labors of these brave consecrated women in this chronicle. Theirs is story that needed to be told and she has done it well. January 1, 2016 Most Rev. Kevin J. Farrell Bishop of Dallas The Author School Sister of Notre Dame Mary Brian Bole, author of They Came to Serve, has held administrative and teaching positions at a number of educational institutions in Texas and Japan, including the University of Dallas, Kyoto Notre Dame University, Kyoto, Japan, Bishop Dunne School, Nolan Catholic High School, Fort Worth, the Highlands School, Irving and Our Lady of Perpetual Help School in Dallas.
