Book Synopsis For Faith and Fortune by : JoEllen McNergney Vinyard
Download or read book For Faith and Fortune written by JoEllen McNergney Vinyard and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even before the massive European immigrations of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Detroit had a tradition of Catholicism. Multiple immigrant groups became part of the city and considered it important to educate their daughters as well as their sons within the Church. JoEllen McNergney Vinyard's comprehensive examination of parochial education in Detroit within the broader context of that city's urbanization patterns yields a richly detailed addition to our understanding of the European immigrant experience. For Faith and Fortune will be of interest to historians and scholars of urban studies, particularly immigration, schooling, and the Catholic experience.

Book Synopsis Polish Detroit and the Kolasiński Affair by : Lawrence D. Orton
Download or read book Polish Detroit and the Kolasiński Affair written by Lawrence D. Orton and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reverend Dominik Kolasiński (1838-1898) left Detroit an enduring legacy in St. Albertus's and Sweetest Heart of Mary's, two of the city's most magnificent churches, but his ecclesiastical career was turbulent and controversial. Because he believed that he had been unjustly suspended as a pastor of St. Albertus's, Kolasiński undertook a successful struggle for vindication and reinstatement which caused almost a decade of turmoil in the Polish immigrant community. Loved by many and despised by some, Father Kolasiński through his activities focused public attention on the new Polish Americans and their way of life, as well as on the sometimes strained relationship between the Polish Roman Catholic parishes and the non-Polish diocesan authorities. Lawrence D. Orton, making extensive use of the accounts in contemporary newspapers, tells the story of what came to be known as the Kolansiński Affair with insight and objectivity. He also includes a detialed survey of the beginnings, expansion, and consolidation of Detroit's Polish community in the nineteenth century, paying particular attention to the attitudes and perceptions of "native" Detroiters. His study attests to the peasant immigrants' efforts to maintain their own traditions in an urban and sometimes hostile environment and to their establishment of religious and cultural institutions that facilitated their adjustment to their new lives. Profusely illustrated with contemporary drawings, photographs, and a map of the nineteenth-century Polish quarter, this volume makes a substantial contribution both to the history of Detroit and to the history of Poles in the United States. -- from dust jacket.

Book Synopsis Detroit Gesu Catholic Church and School by : Patricia Montemurri
Download or read book Detroit Gesu Catholic Church and School written by Patricia Montemurri and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a reconfigured farmhouse just a mile outside of the city limits of Detroit, a Jesuit priest and 25 men, women, and children gathered to celebrate Sunday mass on March 19, 1922. The Reverend John McNichols named the Catholic mission church Gesu, the Italian word for "Jesus." Gesu became one of Detroit's landmark parishes. Its history illustrates the Motor City's boom, bust, resilience, and resurgence. It was the home parish of four Detroit mayors, powerful members of Congress, auto industry titans, sports legends, artists, authors, and actors. At its peak in the mid-1960s, Gesu School enrolled 1,600 students. Because of Detroit's decline and its racial and economic struggles, Gesu is one of only four Catholic elementary schools that remain in the city. But as Detroit rebounds, Gesu School is growing again.
