Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Organization in Parishes There is an increasing conviction on the part of both Pastors and people of the need of new methods in Parish Organization to meet the needs of the time. Nevertheless, these methods must not be a violent innovation, nor a sudden departure from established and traditional ways of Catholic action, but should be a quiet and logical development of approved methods and of established institutions. With these things in mind, the author of the present volume has been endeavoring during the last half decade to assist the directors of sodalities in parishes and institutions to utilize their existing societies to meet the various needs of Catholic action. The suggestions and plans contained in this book are the result of these endeavors. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Shared Parish written by Brett C. Hoover and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As faith communities in the United States grow increasingly more diverse, many churches are turning to the shared parish, a single church facility shared by distinct cultural groups who retain their own worship and ministries. The fastest growing and most common of these are Catholic parishes shared by Latinos and white Catholics. Shared parishes remain one of the few institutions in American society that allows cultural groups to maintain their own language and customs while still engaging in regular intercultural negotiations over the shared space. This book explores the shared parish through an in-depth ethnographic study of a Roman Catholic parish in a small Midwestern city demographically transformed by Mexican immigration in recent decades. Through its depiction of shared parish life, the book argues for new ways of imagining the U.S. Catholic parish as an organization. The parish, argues Brett C. Hoover, must be conceived as both a congregation and part of a centralized system, and as one piece in a complex social ecology. The Shared Parish also posits that the search for identity and adequate intercultural practice in such parishes might call for new approaches to cultural diversity in U.S. society, beyond assimilation or multiculturalism. We must imagine a religious organization that accommodates both the need for safe space within distinct groups and for social networks that connect these groups as they struggle to respectfully co-exist.

Book Social Organization and Peasant Societies

Download or read book Social Organization and Peasant Societies written by Maurice Freedman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays included in Social Organization and Peasant Societies were written in honor of the man who taught their authors. Each entry is about different problems within the general field of "social organization."They were composed in many styles; and deal ethnographically with a heterogeneous collection of peoples and countries. Together they illustrate an important aspect of Firth's influence as a teacher: the range of his interests and his success in promoting social anthropological research on the broadest front.The breadth and the variety in the work of his students reflect Firth's own catholicity. From economics he reached into every corner of the field covered by social anthropology, and many of his interests can be traced in these essays on themes in kinship and marriage (by Baric, Benedict, Kaberry, and Leach) and on religious subjects (by Freedman, Morris, and Stanner). Still more detail the study of modern social change (by Little and Mayer). There is even one is on art (by Forge). Three are devoted to subjects in economic anthropology (by Belshaw, Swift, and Ward). On all of these varied and complex topics Raymond Firth has written extensively and taught untiringly. Many of the contributors to his festschrift are themselves leading anthropologists.Raymond Firth's importance in the history of social anthropology is undisputed. He came into the profession when it was small and unformed, when it existed only in the tiny groups of people around Malinowski and Radcliffe-Brown. He urged it on, by intellectual leadership, by careful organization, and by devoted service. He was one of a small band of scholars; he created a large school. He inherited an esoteric seminar from Malinowski; he turned it into a great class where, over the years, hundreds of students marveled at his skill and learned their craft as analysts and field workers. His protege listened to his formulation of problems, his critique of methods, and his courteous but un

Book Social Organizations in Parishes

Download or read book Social Organizations in Parishes written by Edward Garesches and published by . This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While a great number of methods and ideas are presented in these pages, it is of course intended that each reader will make a. judicious selection of those that are best suited to his own circumstances, or to the conditions of the organization of which he may have charge.The volume is intended to be useful as well to individuals who wish to learn what good works they can personally accomplish, as to the directors and officers of Sodalities and other societies. It has been thought well, therefore, to go into some detail and to offer an abundance of material, leaving to each one to take what is useful and helpful and to disregard what does not seem presently suitable to his needs.Though the society called the Sodality has been taken herein for a standard of organization in parishes, schools and institutions, as being the most universal in its distribution and the most general in its membership, the thoughtful reader will be able easily to apply the suggestions made, to the work of almost any Catholic society. The lists of activities and the departments of work outlined are those which have seemed most timely and have , proven most successful in actual practice. In general, an effort has been made to sum up in this book the experiences of many parishes and the fruits of the failures and successes of many workers for Catholic organization.This work proceeds to explain how to launch a parish organization and make it grow for the good of all concerned and the salvation of souls. Let us consider this advice: "Supremely important for the cultivation of personal holiness is the regular practice of spiritual reading, the perusal of books which directly tend to instruct the mind in the ways of holiness and to move the will to walk therein, The members of the Spiritual Reading Section will therefore devote themselves to practicing this most helpful spiritual activity and encouraging its practice by others. They will therefore agree:I-To read every day for at least a quarter of an hour some approved spiritual book, such as the life of a saint, a work on a directly spiritual topic, or an article in a Catholic periodical on a point of personal holiness.2-To use their influence in a tactful and prudent way to induce others to make daily spiritual reading. This may be done by recommending some book that we have found specially helpful ourselves; by speaking of the interest, profit, charm we have found in spiritualreading; by offering to read a spiritual book aloud while others are working or sewing, etc.; by having on hand copies of our own of the books we are most interested in and have found most helpful, and lending them to others after we have aroused their desire to read them by speaking of the books; by tactfully introducing the subject of the profit and need of spiritual reading in such a way as to make others wish to practice it; by pointing out in the Sodality library such spiritual books as we think our friends will specially appreciate and enjoy.3-By encouraging the purchase of spiritual books, and forming groups for that purpose. Thus a club may be formed of twelve or more persons to purchase that many copies of the Imitation of Christ, the New Testament, or some other spiritual book, which may then be had from the publishers at wholesale prices. "Buy a book a month," or even, "Buy a book a year," would be an excellent motto to express this purpose of the Section. All members should thus be encouraged to form their personal libraries.4-By arranging to meet at the houses of friends in rotation on some night of the week for spiritual reading in common, with a little informal discussion, each remarking what he or she considers the most striking thought in the evening's reading. ...5-By making a list of the spiritual books inthe Sodality library. ...6-By prayer and study in the interest of spiritual reading. ...

Download or read book American Parishes written by Gary J. Adler and published by Fordham University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parishes are the missing middle in studies of American Catholicism. Between individual Catholics and a global institution, the thousands of local parishes are where Catholicism gets remade. American Parishes showcases what social forces shape parishes, what parishes do, how they do it, and what this says about the future of Catholicism in the United States. Expounding an embedded field approach, this book displays the numerous forces currently reshaping American parishes. It draws from sociology of religion, culture, organizations, and race to illuminate basic parish processes, like leadership and education, and ongoing parish struggles like conflict and multiculturalism. American Parishes brings together contemporary data, methods, and questions to establish a sociological re-engagement with Catholic parishes and a Catholic re-engagement with sociological analysis. Contributions by leading social scientists highlight how community, geography, and authority intersect within parishes. It illuminates and analyzes how growing racial diversity, an aging religious population, and neighborhood change affect the inner workings of parishes. Contributors: Gary J. Adler Jr., Nancy Ammerman, Mary Jo Bane, Tricia C. Bruce, John A. Coleman, S.J., Kathleen Garces-Foley, Mary Gray, Brett Hoover, Courtney Ann Irby, Tia Noelle Pratt, and Brian Starks
