Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketch of St. Aloysius' Parish: Pottstown, Pennsylvania The aim of this sketch is to present some facts about the planting and growth of Catholicity in Pottstown. The treatment is necessarily from a layman's point of view. Much more could be said about the leaders of the people. The clergy, on account of their high position, are better known than the laity, and information relating to the priests can be obtained elsewhere by those who wish, but there is danger of losing all record of the rank and file of the faithful unless they are remembered in a book like this. How much does the present generation know about the early congregation? When the ones that were acquainted with those early Catholics are, in the course of natural events, removed from this earth, it is to be hoped that in these pages will be found some memorials of those people who laid the foundation of the blessings we now enjoy. This book is not a complete history. It contains merely some of the raw material which may recall to the older parishioners other facts relating to the past. In the first part the attempt is made to give some idea of the development of Catholicity from the missionary period of this section when the faithful were few in number, to the present time, when the ministrations of our religion are obtained with comparative ease. In the last part is a record of events you are more familiar with, which will be more interesting to future generations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Pilcher constructed his first pipe organ in Dover, England, in 1820. Over a period of almost 125 years, four generations of family members-working first in England and then in the United States-built Henry Pilcher's Sons Organ Company into a business known for its high manufacturing standards. The institution they created placed organs throughout the United States and only saw its end with the outbreak of World War II. This reference volume, rich with previously undiscovered source material, presents a historical synopsis of the family business. Also included is the opus list of Pilcher organs, arranged both chronologically and by region, and published here for the first time. A vital source for Pilcher organ historians and admirers, this volume offers useful data for anyone seeking historical background or information on specific Pilcher organs.

Excerpt: ... history of the church.. 1741 to 1800. More than a century and a half ago, a humble Jesuit left his European home and crossed the ocean to share the labors and trials of those adventurous pioneers, who had left the old world for the new, that he might keep fresh in their minds the faith of their fathers, and comfort them in their sorrows and tribulations. The little log cabin which Reverend William Wapeler, S. J.f built in the valley of Conowago, in 1741, although most humble in appearance, was, indeed, a true temple of God. Many weary pilgrims entered this chapel in the wilderness, foot-sore and sick at heart, left who comforted by the hospitality and wise counsel of this pious priest. Among these were the fore-fathers of some of those who now worship at St. Aloysius church at Littlestown, Pennsylvania. From that day even unto this many of their descendants have gone to that sacred spot and in that humble chapel, or its successor, have bent their knee in prayers of thanksgiving for past favors and begged the God of their fathers to bless them and their children as he had blessed those who had gone before them. For nearly fifty years from the building of that little chapel the Catholics about Littlestown went, on Sundays and holidays of obligation, to assist at the sacrifice of the Mass at this the first House of God in their midst. And when the old building was replaced by the magnificent stone church of the Sacred Heart, erected upon the same site in 1787, by the Rev. James Pellentz, S. J., they still turned with loving hearts towards Conowago. Even within the present decade, it was not an unusual thing for those who sought God's blessing in marriage to kneel at the feet of some devout Jesuit in that same church in which their parents...

Download or read book Priest Parish and People written by Richard N. Juliani and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the perspective of historical sociology, Richard N. Juliani traces the role of religion in the lives and communities of Italian immigrants in Philadelphia from the 1850s to the early 1930s. By the end of the nineteenth century, Philadelphia had one of the largest Italian populations in the country. The Archdiocese of Philadelphia eventually established twenty-three parishes for the exclusive use of Italians. Juliani describes the role these parishes played in developing and anchoring an ethnic community and in shaping its members' new identity as Italian Americans during the years of mass migration from Italy to America. Priest, Parish, and People blends the history of Monsignor Antonio Isoleri--pastor from 1870 to 1926 of St. Mary Magdalen dePazzi, the first Italian parish founded in the country--with that of the Italian immigrant community in Philadelphia. Relying on parish and archdiocesan records, secular and church newspapers, archives of religious orders, and Father Isoleri's personal papers, Juliani chronicles the history of St. Mary Magdalen dePazzi as it grew from immigrant refuge to a large, stable, ethnic community that anchored "Little Italy" in South Philadelphia. In charting that growth, Juliani also examines conflicts between laity and clergy and between clergy and church hierarchy, as well as the remarkable fifty-six-year career of Isoleri as a spiritual and secular leader. Priest, Parish, and People provides both the details of parish history in Philadelphia and the larger context of Italian-American Catholic history.
