God knows this, and he challenges us to avoid hate and holding grudges. In the law that Jesus preached, we are not even allowed to hate our enemies or persecutors. That is radical! It is easy to let injuries build up over time. Eventually we find ourselves far away from those we should be closest to or those we once loved. This separation starts in our thoughts and settles into our hearts and behavior. Hate grows, and if it isn’t controlled and redeemed, it can pull us down. We don’t have to hate, be angry, or carry grudges if we don’t want to. Our hearts and minds can be filled with God’s grace. We can work on three levels to overcome hate and anger: For Reflection visual, verbal, and physical.

He is credited by many with being the father of Catholic Charities in New York. Pierre was instrumental in raising funds for the first Catholic orphanage and began the first school for Black children. He also helped to provide funds for the Sisters of Providence, a religious community of Black nuns founded in Baltimore and played a vital role in providing resources to erect Old Saint Patrick Cathedral in Lower Manhattan. During a Yellow Fever epidemic when many of the city’s political leaders fled the city for healthier rural climates, Saint Pierre cared for the sick and the dying. He was a successful entrepreneur, who did not hesitate to share the fruits of his labor with others. In recognition of the Saint’s virtuous life, the late Cardinal Cooke introduced Pierre’s cause for canonization in 1968.

  • Venerable Pierre Toussaint (1766-1853) by Sister Elizabeth Ann, S.J.W
    Venerable Pierre Toussaint (1766-1853) by Sister Elizabeth Ann, S.J.W. Pierre was born into slavery on the island of Haiti. His master, Jean Berard, encouraged the young Pierre to learn to read and write. Pierre was a house slave, so he escaped the brutality and harsh work of the fields. Pierre's mother and grandmother were devout Catholics who passed their faith on to Pierre and his younger sister, Rosalie. Jean Berard seemed to realize that there might be troubled times on Haiti. In 1787, he moved his new wife and several slaves, including Pierre and Rosalie, to New York City. It was in New York City that Pierre learned to become a hairdresser. In those days, wealthy women had their hair decorated in elaborate fashions, and a good hairdresser could make a nice sum of money. Not only did Pierre have a natural gift for dressing hair, he possessed a "quiet wit and gaiety"1. Pierre was also discreet, and these qualities endeared him to his clients who often sought him out for advice. These same clients supported Pierre in his charitable works. As Pierre was establishing a good reputation among New York's elite, the increasing number of Haitian refugees brought reports of murder and devastation from the island. Jean Berard returned to Haiti to try to protect his property, but died of pleurisy shortly after his return. The widowed Madame Berard, grieving over her husband's death, was also confronted with the news of her new poverty; the revolution on Haiti had destroyed her livelihood.

  • Black Catholic History 2018 an Updated Excerpt from January 31, 2012 Timely Topics
    BLACK CATHOLIC HISTORY 2018 AN UPDATED EXCERPT FROM JANUARY 31, 2012 TIMELY TOPICS Each year in February we are reminded of the history and contributions of Black Americans. For us, it also is a time to be aware of the history and gifts of our black brothers and sisters in the Catholic Church in America. Black Catholics are not newcomers to the Church. We often forget that Christianity did not originate in Europe. You may be surprised to learn that Black Catholic History began in the Acts of the Apostles (8:26-40) with the conversion of the Ethiopian Eunuch by Philip the Deacon. Three Popes have been born in Africa: Saints Victor I, Melchiades, and Gelasius I. Many saints were black: Saints Cyprian, Zeno, Anthony of Egypt, Moses the Black, Pachomius, Maurice, Athanasius, Pisentius, Mary of Egypt, Cyril of Alexandria, Monica of Hippo, Augustine of Hippo, Perpetua, Felicitas, and St. Martin DePorres. Black Catholics have played a major part in the history and development of our Church, e.g., St. Augustine’s Summa Theologica (St. Augustine is considered the first black doctor of the Church). Many Black Catholics have devoted their lives to their Catholic faith – indeed, many have given their lives for their faith. Below are links to some notable Black Catholics. Jean Baptiste Pointe du Sable Fr. Augustine Tolton Daniel A. Rudd Pope St. Victor 189-198 AD Pierre Toussaint Pope St. Miltiades 310-314 AD Mother Henriette Delille Pope St. Gelasius I 492-496 AD Mother Mary Lange St. Josephine Bakhita Father Cyprian Davis Black Catholics have been a part of American history since at least 1565.

Pierre Toussaint SEMESTER 2 St. Rose of Lima ANYTIME Patron Saint of your School and Region GL = Religion Guidelines (Rev. ed. 1998) Mass Responses are on page 3. 1 Grade 7 Religion Pacing Guide 2021-2022 The Religion Teacher “The religion teacher is the key, the vital component, if the educational goals of the school are to be achieved. But the effectiveness of religious instruction is closely tied to the personal witness given by the teacher; this witness is what brings the content of the lessons to life . Most of all, students should be able to recognize authentic human qualities in their teachers. They are teachers of the faith; however, like Christ, they must also be teachers of what it means to be human . A teacher who has a clear vision of the Christian milieu and lives in accord with it will be able to help young people develop a similar vision, and will give them the inspiration they need to put it into practice.” (Congregation for Catholic Education, The Religious Dimension of Education in a Catholic School, 1988) A few notes on using the Pacing Guides... Passing on the faith to the next generation is a primary mission of the church, and Catholic schools have participated in this evangelizing mission from the very beginning. The Religion Pacing Guides are truly guides for instruction. They are not the Religion Guidelines, nor are they a curriculum.
