Origination: Cole, Joseph E. Extent: 882 linear feet Physical Location: Abstract: After the Cleveland Press newspaper ceased publication on June 17, 1982. Joseph E. Cole, its publisher, donated the "morgue" to Cleveland State University. Representing the archived editorial library, sometimes referred to as a "newspaper morgue," topics focus on the news coverage of northeastern Ohio, with national and international news stories holding a secondary level of importance.The Cleveland Press photograph collection is composed of an archive of over one million photographs. Unit ID: PH2000.000PRE Language(s) of the Materials: English History of The Cleveland Press The Cleveland Press, founded by Edward W. Scripps, began as the Penny Press on 2 Nov. 1878. A small, 4-page afternoon daily, the paper continued to prosper. Shortened to the Press in 1884, and finally the Cleveland Press in 1889, by 1903 the Press was Cleveland's leading daily newspaper. As it entered the 1920s, the Press neared 200,000 in circulation. Louis B. Seltzer became the 12th editor of the Press in 1928, and under his 38-year stewardship the Press became one of the country's most influential newspapers. Seltzer readjusted its original working-class bias into a less controversial neighborhood orientation, stressing personal contacts and promoting the slogan "The Newspaper That Serves Its Readers." In the postwar period the Press continued its public service campaigns and remained an unrivaled force in Ohio politics.

  • You Are Creating a Brighter Future BETHLEHEM UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION / ANNUAL REPORT / FISCAL YEAR 2019-2020 My Thanks for Your Generosity and Commitment
    You Are Creating a Brighter Future BETHLEHEM UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION / ANNUAL REPORT / FISCAL YEAR 2019-2020 My Thanks for Your Generosity and Commitment Dear Friends, Thank you for your support of the Bethlehem University Foundation. Your gifts are a testimony to your vision — that of creating a brighter future. With your support of Catholic education, you are forming the future peacemakers of the Holy Land. I am grateful for your generosity. In this Annual Report, I invite you to take a closer look at the lasting difference your gifts make and encourage you to learn more about how endowed gifts at the Foundation create a perpetual and sustainable future for Bethlehem University. In this report you will discover that the past year was filled with celebrations and successes: • New endowed funds established by Lieutenancies, Knights, and Dames of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem. • Award winners from our November 2019 reception, and the welcoming of Cardinal O’Brien as a Patron. • Endowed scholarships created by several families to honor their loved ones. • Expressions of gratitude toward our Board, Patrons, and donors this fiscal year. • Charts showing income and expenses for Bethlehem University Foundation for the fiscal year 2019-2020. Early in 2020, the world united in the fight against an invisible enemy, COVID-19. The city of Bethlehem was put on lockdown in early March, but with your critical support, the University successfully completed the spring semester and summer session with online learning. Your generous response provided the means for the Foundation to offer extra help to the University in its time of desperate need.

  • Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, J.C.D. Statement on the Proposed 'Don't
    Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, J.C.D. Statement on the Proposed ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’ Legislation (01.VI.10) In a response to a request from the Chiefs of Chaplains of the Armed Forces I communicated some considerations and concerns regarding the proposal to change the existing legislation regarding persons with a homosexual orientation in the military. In fulfilling my role as the chief shepherd of Catholics in the United States Armed Forces, I have had the opportunity of visiting many installations in the recent past. A number of chaplains and commanding officers have expressed concerns about the effects of a change. There is a request for guidance. The teaching of the Catholic Church is clearly expressed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church: 2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,140 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."141 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. 2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial.

  • Child and Youth Protection
    Child and Youth Protection Based on the analysis of the results of the 2015 Audit conducted under the direction of the USCCB’s Office for Child and Youth Protection, the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA has been found to be in full compliance with the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. Protecting God’s Children in the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA The Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA (AMS) refers to and cooperates fully with the diocese of incardination or religious community and with appropriate military and civilian law enforcement when any misconduct complaints of sexual abuse against a priest-chaplain or deacon are received. Archbishop Timothy Broglio, JCD has promulgated the Archdiocese’s Policy to Address Claims of Sexual Abuse of a Minor. This policy is reviewed annually by the Archdiocesan Review Board. The Archdiocese for the Military Services provides assistance to anyone who, as a minor, was sexually abused by a priest, deacon or employee serving in the Archdiocese. Parents, guardians, children, and survivors of sexual abuse are invited and encouraged to contact AMS for more information about this program. Archdiocesan Review Board In accord with Norm 4 of Essential Norms for Diocesan/Eparchial Policies Dealing with Allegations of Sexual Abuse of Minors by Priests or Deacons, approved by the United States Conference of Catholic bishops and reviewed by the Holy See, the Archbishop has established a Review Board to provide confidential consultation to him as he carries out his responsibilities for all those entrusted to his pastoral care. • Purposes and Procedures of the Review Board for the Protection of Minors (.pdf) Victim Assistance Coordinator – Eileen Dombo, Ph.D., LICSW 202-681-5069 or [email protected] Source: https://www.milarch.org/child-and-youth-protection/ .

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2016–2017 to Strengthen the Lives of Those in Need by Giving Help That Empowers and Hope That Lasts
    RestoringHope ANNUAL REPORT 2016–2017 To strengthen the lives of those in need by giving help that empowers and hope that lasts. Dear Friends, With a profound sense of gratitude, it is my joy to present this annual report for Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington. Your support of this ministry of hope and compassion is a powerful testament to the conviction that we have a responsibility to care for one another with kindness and love. “Blessed are the open hands that embrace those in need and helps them: they are hands that bring hope,” says Pope Francis in his Message for the First World Day of the Poor. As we have received such saving hope ourselves in the merciful love of Jesus, he adds, so are we called to turn to “all those who stretch out their hands and plead for our help and solidarity. They are our brothers and sisters, created and loved by the one Heavenly Father.” As you read this annual report, you will see how generously and fruitfully that call has been answered in our local Church. Behind all the financial figures and data are the faces of so many people whose lives are brighter today thanks to the dedicated efforts of Catholic Charities and the benefactors who make it all possible. Through the 58 programs operated in this area by this remarkable ministry, each year more than 142,000 women, men, and children from every background find much-appreciated material and spiritual help, including food assistance, housing, health care, immigration and refugee assistance, services for persons with developmental disabilities, job training, and more.
