Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Catholic Church in Western New York, Diocese of Buffalo It was full time, therefore, that these early events should be recorded in permanent form, whilst there were still living witnesses to confirm or correct the early oral history of the Church in Western New York, before it became involved in the mist of unreliable memory, or perhaps passed into oblivion. The saintly Bishop Timon realized the importance of this work; and in the preface to his little work he says: Amidst occupations already almost excessive, it seemed wrong to attempt a work like this - when only interrupted moments, snatched from important and necessary duties, could be devoted to examining documents, written at various epochs, during hundreds of years. But the advice of respected friends, and the suggestion that, if not soon begun, future steps in this direction might be almost impossible, made us hesitate. Then, far advanced in the midnight vigil, or long before dawn of day, we strove to make a beginning; hoping that our labors might induce others who have time and talent to follow the glimpses that may open through these pages, and unfold the shadows which still rest 'round the dark and stormy past; and make it bright with evidence that in America, God protected the Church, and matured its fruits of love. Bishop Timon made a beginning, but he did not have the time to complete a work of such magnitude. The writer had collected material for some years, and had made notes for a history of the diocese, but without any definite purpose of prosecuting the work until he was requested to do the literary part of the work for a company already organized. The writer wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to Archbishop Quigley, Bishop Colton and Father Connery, for encouragement; and to the priests of the diocese and the heads of institutions, for historical sketches and notes which rendered his task less toilsome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This remarkable history of a beloved Upper West Side church is in many respects a microcosm of the history of the Catholic Church in New York City. Here is a captivating study of a distinctive Catholic community on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, an area long noted for its liberal Catholic sympathies in contrast to the generally conservative attitude that has pervaded the archdiocese of New York. The author traces this liberal Catholic dimension of Upper West Side Catholics to a long if slender line of progressive priests that stretches back to the Civil War era, casting renewed light on their legacy: liturgical reform, concern for social justice, and a preferential option for the poor long before this phrase found its way into official church documents. In recent years this progressivism has demonstrated itself in a willingness to extend a warm welcome to LGBT Catholics, most notably at the Church of the Ascension on West 107th Street. Ascension was one of the first diocesan parishes in the archdiocese to offer a spiritual home to LGBT Catholics and continues to sponsor the Ascension Gay Fellowship Group. Exploring the dynamic history of the Catholic Church of the Ascension, this engaging and accessible book illustrates the unusual characteristics that have defined Catholicism on the Upper West Side for the better part of the last century and sheds light on similar congregations within the greater metropolis. In many respects, the history of Ascension parish exemplifies the history of Catholicism in New York City over the past two centuries because of the powerful presence of two defining characteristics: immigration and neighborhood change. The Church of the Ascension, in fact, is a showcase of the success of urban ethnic Catholicism. It was founded as a small German parish, developed into a large Irish parish, suffered a precipitous decline during the crime wave that devastated the Upper West Side from the 1960s to the 1980s, and was rescued from near-extinction by the influx of Puerto Rican and Dominican Catholics. It has emerged during the last several decades as a flourishing multi-ethnic, bilingual parish that is now experiencing the restored prosperity and prominence of the Upper West Side as one of Manhattan’s most integrated and popular residential neighborhoods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1905 and written as an official chronology of the Diocese of New York then one of the powerhouse regions of the Catholic Church in America, as the Archdiocese of New York is today this two-volume work remains an important document of the Church. Useful in both the historical and cultural dimensions, this highly readable but powerfully biased account reveals the prejudices and partialities of the time as filtered through the viewpoint of one of its most influential institutions. Volume I explores: the first Catholics in the State of New York the early years of the organization in the state the first bishop and early administration anti-Catholicism and the Knownothing Party the growth of the parishes politics and Catholicism and much more. American clergyman and author REV. JOHN TALBOT SMITH (1855 1923) also wrote The Training of a Priest, The Chaplain Sermons, and other religious works, as well as the novels Woman of Culture (1882) and Solitary Island (1888).
