The Work of the Pinsker: Orphans Relief Fund of London, 1921—39
The work of the Pinsker Orphans Relief Fund ofLondon, 1921-39 JOHN COOPER The town of Pinsk lies on two great rivers inWestern Russia, intersected by railway routes along which the trade of the booming Russian economy flowed in the early part of the twentieth century. In 1931 no fewer than 24,000 of its population of 32,000 were Jewish, constituting 75 per cent of the total, slightly higher than the pre-1914 percentage. 'Most industries were in the hands of Jews, especially the tanneries, liquor manufactories, breweries, corn mills and saw mills. The Pinsk Jews played an important part also in the lumber and fish trade.'1 Pinsk in addition had a vibrant Jewish culture before the First World War. Its suburb of Karlin was a Hasidic stronghold and the town was one of the centres of the nascent Zionist movement.2 In 1915 Pinsk was occupied by the German army, its inhabitants scat? tered and Jewish family life disrupted. After 1918, as the army of the new Polish state pushed the Russian Bolshevik regime out of large areas of Poland, there was a wave of pogroms in the central and northern provinces of Poland with heavy Jewish casualties in the towns of Pinsk, Lida and Vilna. On 5 April 1919 the local Polish military commander ordered the shooting of thirty-four Jews in Pinsk who had attended ameeting to arrange the distribution of food for Passover, maliciously accusing them of being a secret Communist cell.3 Emergency conditions returned to Pinsk when the Bolshevik army cap? tured the town for a second time from 26 July to 26 September 1920. -

Subiaco Abbey
The Abbey Message Subiaco Abbey Vol LXXVII, No. 1 Summer 2021 Inside Parish and Pandemic by Fr. Reginald Udouj, OSB 2 This past year has been an interesting one, to say the least. I started out as the Abbot’s Message administrator of St. Joseph’s in Paris, AR, and the sacramental minister of St. An- You are my Friends thony’s in Ratcliff, and after a little over a year I am now the pastor at St. Joseph’s (my grandmother’s home parish) and the sacramental minister at St. Mary’s parish 3 in Altus (my grandfather’s home parish). The time in between has been anything but uneventful. Abbey Journal I first arrived at St. Joseph’s at the beginning of Advent in 2019. It was a bit Happenings at the Abbey unnerving trying to navigate the needs of the parish and the different liturgies of the Christmas season as I settled into my new surroundings. I made it through the Christmas season without causing too much turmoil in the parish or in the elemen- 7 tary school and was finally starting to get my bearings and settle in for the Lenten Development season when the whole world seemed to get turned upside down. Bishop Anthony Taylor came to St. Joseph’s one Saturday in mid-March for the The Hills are Alive confirmation of twelve of the youth of our parish; it was as joyous a day as it could have been. We had a beautiful Mass and reception that followed and everyone was 10 in the Spirit. -
Sacred Heart Church 1882 - 1982 a Short History
The Sacred Heart Church 1882 - 1982 A Short History SACRED HEART CHURCH PENICUIK 1882 - 1982 A Short History Acknowledgement: To Michael McGowan who wrote and researched this short history of the Sacred Heart Church, we are deeply indebted. We appreciate all the effort, time and travel with which he involved himself, in its compilation. We are sorry he did not live to see his efforts in print. He will be remembered by all who read this booklet. May he rest in peace. M.J. THE PARISH: In the "New Statistical Account of Scotland (1839-41)" the Rev. Scott Moncrieff mentions that from the 12th century to the Reformation the Parish of Penicuik continued as an independent parsonage; the grant of the living was in the hands of the Lord of the Manor. The Manor was held by a family who assumed their surname from it and were patrons of the Church. Some of the pre-reformation clergymen were: 1296 - Walter Edgar 1319 - Ricardus de Suthorpe 1448 - Alex. Vans 1472 - John Quitela 1550 - Archibald Robertson The last pre-reformation cleric was appointed in 1556 and was a relative of the patron. His name was William Penycuike. He continued in office for seven years after the Reformation and lived in Penicuik until the end of the 16th century. These clergymen were, of course Catholic, and probably were private chaplains to the Lord of the Manor. There is no record of any sort of church being situated in Penicuik itself until mention is made in the "Minutes of the Kirk Session of Penicuik" of a decree of the Commissioners for Plantation of Kirks, dated 30th January I618, annexing to the Kirk of Pennycooke the lands of Mount Lothian and St. -

More than 80% are not orphans. 80 years of research demonstrates the harm caused by raising children in institutions. As a result, most countries in the developed world moved away from this form of care decades ago. The Haitian government has prioritised reducing reliance on orphanage care, to ensure children can be raised in families. -
Walking the Path of a Peacemaker - Part 2: an Orphanage Like No Other
Walking the Path of a Peacemaker - Part 2: An Orphanage like No Other John Gehring July 18, 2014 Part 1 of Walking the Path of a Peacemaker shows how David’s sincere heart of service helped move the hearts of the villagers in Karukutty, India. In Part 2, we follow how the inspiration David found in India served as a springboard for organizing RYS in his hometown of Birmingham and his eventual return to India where he gained recognition as an Honorary Citizen. A true story by John W. Gehring Throughout his stay in India, David continued to work and mingle with the Religious Youth Service (RYS) participants and the local residents of Karukutty. The daily joys and challenges that he found in work and conversations, and through the cultural exchanges, incited in his spirit a desire to recreate the RYS experience in his hometown. This desire became a priority when he returned to Birmingham. Creating a Birmingham Success The city of Birmingham, England has been a magnet for attracting people from a wide variety of cultures and religions. For decades, concerned citizens among the heterogeneous population have worked to improve person-to- person, cross-cultural understanding and cooperation. David and his wife Patricia were among those who periodically participated in programs aimed at promoting harmony. After returning from India, the couple began to host several interfaith events that quite naturally led to considering Birmingham as the host for an RYS project. For an interreligious service project to work well, David realized it was essential to involve a wide cross section of religions. -

Alexandra Fahl Report submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the MSc in Responsible Tourism Management Leeds Beckett University Carnegie Faculty School of Events, Tourism & Hospitality September 2016 Does responsible volunteering in Cambodian orphanages exist? ACKNOWLEDGMENT The research project is the final phase of completing the Master Course ‘Responsible Tourism Management’ at Leeds Beckett University. The author aimed to investigate a topic which is current and challenging and where her research and advice can be of use.

The Making of Sultan Süleyman: a Study of Process/Es of Image-Making and Reputation Management
THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT by NEV ĐN ZEYNEP YELÇE Submitted to the Institute of Social Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Sabancı University June, 2009 © Nevin Zeynep Yelçe 2009 All Rights Reserved To My Dear Parents Ay şegül and Özer Yelçe ABSTRACT THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT Yelçe, Nevin Zeynep Ph.D., History Supervisor: Metin Kunt June 2009, xv+558 pages This dissertation is a study of the processes involved in the making of Sultan Süleyman’s image and reputation within the two decades preceding and following his accession, delineating the various phases and aspects involved in the making of the multi-layered image of the Sultan. Handling these processes within the framework of Sultan Süleyman’s deeds and choices, the main argument of this study is that the reputation of Sultan Süleyman in the 1520s was the result of the convergence of his actions and his projected image. In the course of this study, main events of the first ten years of Sultan Süleyman’s reign are conceptualized in order to understand the elements employed first in making a Sultan out of a Prince, then in maintaining and enhancing the sultanic image and authority. As such, this dissertation examines the rhetorical, ceremonial, and symbolic devices which came together to build up a public image for the Sultan. Contextualized within a larger framework in terms of both time and space, not only the meaning and role of each device but the way they are combined to create an image becomes clearer. -

ADVOCATE NCFA’S Legislative and Policy Priorities for 2018 by ERIN BAYLES, RYAN HANLON, and CHUCK JOHNSON
A PUBLICATION OF NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR ADOPTION January 2018 January NO. ADOPTION 115 Christie Renick, editor ADVOCATE NCFA’s Legislative and Policy Priorities for 2018 BY ERIN BAYLES, RYAN HANLON, AND CHUCK JOHNSON s our name indicates, National Council For Adoption (NCFA) is an organization for and about the advocacy of adoption. NCFA is narrowly focused on the issues of advocacy, policy, and practice across all adoption types, including domestic, Afoster care, and intercountry adoption as viable solutions for children who need stable permanency that will only be achieved through the legal and time-tested option of adoption. Passionately committed to the belief that every child deserves to thrive in a nurturing, permanent family, NCFA’s mission is to meet the diverse needs of children, birth parents, adopted individuals, adoptive families, and all those touched by adoption through global advocacy, education, research, legislative action, and collaboration. Within that list of actions, NCFA is very often associated with our legislative work on Capitol Hill in support of adoption-related legislation—a record and reputation for which we are quite proud. As much as NCFA may be rightly associated with legislative action, we also devote significant time and resources to other types of adoption-specific advocacy across all three types of adoption, promotion of best practices in adoption, educational and public awareness programs/campaigns, and oversight of our ongoing and acclaimed research projects. We have been fortunate in our legislative advocacy at the federal level in that adoption is viewed as one of the least partisan issues on Capitol Hill. With 225 N.
