  • No Ordinary Joe's
    No ordinary Joe’s: Cardinal Ritter and Cardinal Tobin leave important imprints on local Church In this undated photo, Cardinal Joseph Ritter greets a father and his young son. (Archive photo) By Sean Gallagher Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin and Cardinal Joseph E. Ritter have a lot in common. Obviously, they share a first name. Both served as archbishop of Indianapolis. And they share being close advisors of the pope in the College of Cardinals. Similar to Cardinal Ritter, Cardinal Tobin has also sought to apply his deep faith to pressing social questions of his day, and to lead the faithful under his care to do the same. Cardinal Tobin came to know of Cardinal Ritter when he was a young Redemptorist in formation for the priesthood, spending summers doing ministry in St. Alphonsus Rock Parish in St. Louis, where Cardinal Ritter served as archbishop from 1946 until his death in 1967. The parish was in the middle of a large public housing project, and one of its major buildings was named after Cardinal Ritter. “Cardinal Ritter’s legacy was evident everywhere, both in civic and ecclesial circles,” Cardinal Tobin said. “The curious thing is that nobody told me he was from Indiana, and I assumed he was from Missouri. Of course, my first visit to New Albany corrected that misunderstanding.” That was because the southern Indiana town was where Cardinal Ritter was born in 1892. He grew up as a member of St. Mary Parish there before becoming a seminarian for the then-Diocese of Indianapolis at Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology in St.

  • 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.

Bishop Chatard: Secret Societies, Irish Nationalists, Americanists, and Modernists, 1878-1918 This chapter deals with a set of movements that Bishop Chatard, a religious, social, and political conservative, had to deal with. Born into comfort, rector of the American College in Rome, Chatard, so far as he was able, operated as a brakeman to some of and the salient developments of Gilded Age America, in particular, trade unionism, Irish nationalism, and the efforts of the Modernists to bring the Church up to date and escape from medieval scholasticism. Nor did he share the confidence of the Americanist bishops who reveled in the freedom found in the United States and believed that here the Church had nothing to fear from the state. In resisting such efforts in his lifetime Chatard was on the winning side, with the exception of trade unionism, whose legitimacy was accepted by the Church in the encyclical, Rerum Novarum.

    PARISH HISTORY Page 2 Built on Faith St. Therese still ‘showering us with Founding Father roses’ as parish The Rev. Charles T. Duffey was called to form a new East Side parish in 1924. He had been a priest for 14 years. celebrates 90th Still serving as the first pastor of Little Flower Church, Father Duffey died April anniversary 17, 1939. He was 54. n the beginning, more than three-quarters of a century ago, Ithere were no streets, sidewalks or sewers. The land near 14th Street and Bosart Avenue was either grazing territory or under cultivation. Nearby homes were densely clustered to the south of 10th Street. The nation’s economy was soaring to unprecedented heights under President Calvin Coolidge. They called this decade the “Roaring ’20s,” and the city of Indianapolis, led by Mayor Lew Shank, was feeling this incredible surge of wealth, too. For some time, the Eastside had been seen as prime territory for home development. Real estate agents had hoped a new Catholic church and school would help sell slow-moving lots within platted sub- divisions to the north of 10th Street. As Monsignor John J. Doyle would later recall, the Phoenix Invest- ment Co., Security Trust Co., and Rosalia Realty went to Bishop Joseph Chartrand in 1921 with a pro- posal: They would turn land over to the Indianapolis diocese if Bishop Chartrand would agree to build both a church and school. The bishop took title to the property for $1 and pledged to build, but he did not act for a while. Nonetheless, word spread swiftly that a new Catholic parish was in the works.
