Book A History of St  James the Greater Parish

Download or read book A History of St James the Greater Parish written by Sheila Ross and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of St. James the Greater Parish traces the evolution of a parish that was erected on June 7, 1961, by Most Reverend Francis P. Carroll, Bishop of Calgary, to serve Catholics who resided in the Altadore, Lincoln Park, and Lakeview districts of Calgary. Grounded in tradition, pastors and parishioners moved forward by embracing the forms of renewal in the Church resulting from the Second Vatican Council, which took place from 1962 until 1965 in the Vatican Basilica of St. Peter. For more than fifty years, St. James Parish has contributed to the spiritual life of the congregation and to the welfare of the larger community. Whereas pastors and parishioners have previously been from Europe by descent or birth, the changing face of the parish is now reflected in the multi-ethnic congregation that continues to serve the faithful within the Diocese of Calgary.

Download or read book Cabanocey written by Lillian C. Bourgeois and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 1999-04-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louisiana has sixty-four parishes, and many of them are as individual and different as the state itself is different from others in the Union. St. James Parish, a small parish of 249 square miles, is not only one of the oldest settlements in the state, but it is different in its population make-up and is important historically. Cabanocey . . . is a splendid history of the Parish of St. James. . . . Lillian C. Bourgeois captured the spirit that animates the population, which is descended from French, Spanish, Acadian, German, and Creole peoples. Bourgeois writes of the population's customs, beliefs, language differences, and folklore. Cabanocey is not a collection of dry facts and dates; rather, it vividly describes how, more than one hundred years ago, the people of St. James Parish lived, who they were, and what they contributed to their parish and their state. Before the Civil War, St. James Parish was the educational center of Louisiana, and Jefferson College was the first important college in the state. Founded in 1830, it had fine buildings, a well-equipped laboratory, and an impressive library. The Convent of the Sacred Heart (1835) for girls was well-known by prominent families in Louisiana, Mexico, and Central America, who sent their daughters there. Cabanocey contains St. James genealogies and thousands of names of early settlers, including the soldiers, taxpayers, officials, prominent families, and the first settlers and their children. From the early censuses and church and court records, descent is traced for many names. The censuses of 1766, 1769, and 1777 are complete and were obtained from the archives in Seville, Spain.

  • Author : James H. Hutson
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2007-11-12
  • ISBN : 1139467905
  • Pages : 221 pages

Download or read book Church and State in America written by James H. Hutson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-11-12 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an account of the ideas about and public policies relating to the relationship between government and religion from the settlement of Virginia in 1607 to the presidency of Andrew Jackson, 1829–37. This book describes the impact and the relationship of various events, legislative, and judicial actions, including the English Toleration Act of 1689, the First and Second Great Awakenings, the Constitution of the United States, the Bill of Rights, and Jefferson's Letter to the Danbury Baptists. Four principles were paramount in the American approach to government's relation to religion: the importance of religion to public welfare; the resulting desirability of government support of religion (within the limitations of political culture); liberty of conscience and voluntaryism; the requirement that religion be supported by free will offerings, not taxation. Hutson analyzes and describes the development and interplay of these principles, and considers the relevance of the concept of the separation of church and state during this period.

Book James  the Apostle of Faith

    Book Details:
  • Author : David P. Scaer
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2004-11-08
  • ISBN : 1592449905
  • Pages : 158 pages

Download or read book James the Apostle of Faith written by David P. Scaer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-11-08 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The epistle of James is often poorly understood. Beyond questions of authorship and dating, its contents are troubling. Its powerful accusations of sin seem to overshadow the Gospel. For this reason Luther called it an epistle of straw and questioned whether it should be in the Bible at all. Author David Scaer thinks differently, and he shares his insights with us in 'James, the Apostle of Faith'. As the title indicates, faith in Christ and the comforting Gospel are prominent in many places throughout this epistle. Far from being a dreary series of moralisms, James is filled with references to the atonement, faith, and forgiveness - the sublime Gospel themes of the New Testament. Particularly revealing are many parallels between the Epistle of James and the Gospel of Matthew, especially the Sermon on the Mount and Jesus' agricultural parables. In this study of James, Dr. Scaer makes exciting discoveries, some of which will surprise you. You may not agree with everything he says, but your thinking will certainly be stimulated. Dr. Paul Maier, Professor of Ancient History at Western Michigan University and author of several best-selling studies of the New Testament, provides a most interesting and informative Foreword, giving valuable historical background about James, the brother of our Lord, and the times in which he lived.

Download or read book The Parish in Catholic Tradition written by James A. Coriden and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume," says James Coriden in his introduction, "... allows the reader to reach an accurate understanding of the authentic nature and function of parishes within the Catholic tradition." It describes the origins of parishes and their historical evolution, offers a theology of parish as a local church, links parishes to the church's social teaching and provides a comprehensive overview of their function in Roman Catholic law and their relationship to American civil law." "In clear, nontechnical language, the volume outlines the canonical status of Catholics as parishioners - as well as their rights, duties and forms of assembly and the relationship of parishes to other ecclesial and civil bodies. Ministerial students, clerical and lay ministers, members of parish councils and laypersons generally will find this book an indispensable handbook for living and working within parish communities. Christians of other denominations will make fruitful connections between their own congregational life and Roman Catholic experience."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
