We are truly blessed beyond measure. I am pleased to report that we added 19 new endowments in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018, increasing our foundation’s net assets to more than $184 million. Our parishes, schools, cemeteries, and ministry agencies benefited from more than $7.4 million in distributions during the year. That money goes a long way in creating a tremendous amount of impact in our archdiocese. These endowments tell a story about how the Catholic faith is being lived throughout central and southern Indiana. It may be an endowment someone started to help their parish or school ministry. Or it may be an endowment that supports outreach to homeless families, seminarian education or educational scholarships for children in need. Behind each of these endowments was someone with a passion for gratefully sharing their God-entrusted gifts with others. In order to foster the mission of Christ and to evangelize in this challenging culture, we need strong, healthy parishes, providing religious education programs, and the formation of our seminarians and deacons. Just about any ministry that you can think of is supported by an endowment or planned gift through our Catholic Community Foundation. As I have traveled throughout the Archdiocese, I have had the opportunity to see LETTER TO THE COMMUNITY LETTER TO firsthand the affect these endowments are having in continuing Christ’s work of teaching, healing and sanctifying all God’s people. Many thanks to you for your contribution to the good works noted in this annual report in support of proclaiming and establishing the Kingdom of God in our archdiocese. By you taking the important step of making a planned gift, you not only leave a legacy for future generations, but you also ensure the vitality of our Church for many years to come. I also want to thank those of you who will take the important step of making a planned gift during this coming year. The Catholic Community Foundation is honored to oversee your legacy. May the Lord bless you! With assurance of my prayers and best wishes, I remain Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Charles C.

True to its primary goal, this conference provides those with cross-disciplinary interests related to arts and humanities to meet and interact with others inside and outside their own discipline. The international attendees to this conference bring a variety of viewpoints shaped by different cultures, languages, geography and politics. This diversity is also captured in the Hawaii International Conference’s unique cross-disciplinary approach. The resulting interaction energizes research as well as vocation. With Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head and the vast South Pacific as the backdrop, this venue is an important dimension of this conference. For centuries a stopping place of explorers, Hawaii has historically been enriched by the blend of ideas that have crossed our shores. The Hawaii International Conference on Arts & Humanities continues this tradition in the nurturing spirit of Aloha.

  • Chapter 2 the Building Years Continue
    Chapter 2 The Building Years Continue Planning for a new church building involved organization, effort, and the sacrifice of the whole parish family. In the fall of 1895, Rev. P. Ulric Petri, O.F.M., Pastor, canvassed the entire parish to solicit subscriptions. He found the majority favoring the building of a new church and willing to contribute according to their means. It was found that within three years, the congregation would have on hand $7,000. In 1896, “St. Joseph’s Parish Building Society” was organized with a membership of 28. The building committee included: Rev. P. Ulric Petri, O.F.M., Simon Hirner, B. Hermesmeyer, Clement Kroeger, and Dr. J. J. Nelson. The Society held a meeting the third Sunday of each month. It was decided that each member of the parish should pay twenty-five cents monthly. Fund raisers were undertaken in order to raise money to construct a new church. The church continued to grow. In an 1897 census the parish consisted of 77 families with 364 members in all. There were 66 males between the ages of 21-52 that owned their own houses. 56 members contributed to the support of the church, and 36 children were enrolled in the parochial school. In 1898 when Archbishop Kain came to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation, he congratulated the parish upon the progress made in raising funds and expressed his wish to soon see the new structure. The Venerable Brothers Adrian Wewer and Leonard Darscheid, O.F.M. designed the plans for the new church in 1898.

A call went out for volunteers to conduct tours of the Basilica. It was felt tours were the best process in the promotion of St. Mary’s Basilica. I expressed interest in the project and started to develop the scope of such tours. The following is my study document developed in support of this effort. It was developed as a reference guide to the person conducting the tour and contains more information than would be presented during a tour of the facility. I have discovered that it does not answer all the questions that visitors may present. I must admit that while preparing this reference, I greatly improved my understanding of the traditions and beauty of “the” Church. My efforts have only raised more questions than developing answers. Under no circumstance is this to be considered original work. It is a cut and paste of many publications available in the church library, internet, and the provinces of Sacred Heart and Saint Barbara.

Congressus is a meeting held every three years after a Provincial chapter to make friar assignments. Historically participants are the incoming administration, the outgoing Provincial Minister, and the General Visitor. Because of COVID-19, the Congressus looked different than years past but very standard for the new norm of 2020. Friars were separated 6 feet apart, wearing face masks, and connected via video chat to discuss the province's future In a first for the province, the new leadership's oath of office was live-streamed for friars and followers on social media to view and participate. Mike Johnson, OFM, General Visitor, administered the oath of office via video conference call. 0 1 CONGRESSUS CONTINUED First Row: Ron Walters, OFM, provincial ministers, Charlie Martinez, OFM, vicar provincial, Gerry Steinmetz, OFM, definitor Second Row: Dale Jaminson, OFM, definitor, Patrick Schafer, OFM, definitor, Erasmo Romero, OFM, definitor CAPTURE THIS!

A THESIS Submitted to the Faculty of the Creighton University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Philosophy in the Department of History OMAHA, 1935 ACKNOWLEDGMENT The writer wishes to express her gratitude to all who have aided in the preparation of this work, especially to the Polish Priests of Omaha for the valuable oral information and complete access to aJ.1 records and books in their possession, and to Dr. P. Raymond Nielson of Creighton University for his helpful suggestions and criticisms in the writing of this thesis. Thesis Approved By f ! fay. _Major Advi ser I. INTRODUCTION 1.

The first is marked by no consider­ able influx, but by scattered individuals rescued from oblivion by some personal distinction or some touch of the picturesque. The list is headed by John of Eolno who is said to have commanded a vessel from Danzig and to have discovered the Labrador mainland sixteen years before Co- 1 lumbus. The American Revolution brought from Poland the national hero, Kosciuszko, together with Pulaski, who died at Savannah, and Niemcewicz the biographer of Washington.
