HISTORY Omaha Catholics build the first church in Nebraska territory The first church in the Nebraska Territory was built by Catholics in Omaha. St. Mary’s Church, which stood on the east side of Eighth Street between Harney and Jackson streets, was dedicated in August 1856. The simply designed structure measured 24 by 40 feet. It followed, within a year, the first recorded Mass to be said in Omaha by Father William Edmonds of the Diocese of Dubuque. Catholicism in the area, however, has longer roots, going back to 1838 and the work of Jesuit missionary Peter De Smet, who is known to have visited the site of Bellevue. Although the territory had been under the Vicariate Apostolic of the Indian Territories since 1850, the vastness of the area under that Vicariate (700 miles north to south and 600 miles east to west) led the Jesuit Bishop of the area, John Miege, to request a division. In 1857, the Vicariate Apostolic of the Nebraska Territory was established, but no one appointed to administer it until 1859, when James O’ Gorman, a Trappist monk, became the first bishop of the area. His see was 367,265 square miles with 5,000 Catholics and three priests. On June 25, 1859, the bishop added to his clergy the first priest ordained on Nebraska soil, Father William Kelly. The Sisters of Mercy came to the area in 1864 and the Benedictine Sisters in 1865. St. Mary Church, which became the cathedral and had its name changed to St. Philomena, was quickly outgrown and a new Gothic-style cathedral was built in 1868 at Ninth and Howard streets. By that time, four parishes were established and growing in the area — St. Mary Magdalene and St. Philomena in Omaha, St. Patrick in Fremont, and St. Patrick in Jackson. The tremendous growth in the area caused more than 70 parishes to be established before 1900. The Diocese of Omaha, which included Nebraska and Wyoming, was created on October 2, 1885, while James O’Connor was bishop. The diocese was split on August 2, 1887, and reduced to all counties in Nebraska north of the Platte River. At that time the Dioceses of Lincoln and Cheyenne were created. The Omaha Diocese again was split in March, 1912, as the Diocese of Kearney was created. On April 11, 1917, that diocesan see was transferred to Grand Island as previously disputed counties were transferred to that western Nebraska diocese. The Omaha Diocese became an Archdiocese on October 10, 1945. The Archdiocese of Omaha now comprises 14,051 square miles which includes the counties of Boyd, Holt, Merrick, Nance, Boone, Antelope, Knox, Pierce, Madison, Platte, Colfax, Stanton, Wayne, Cedar, Dixon, Dakota, Thurston, Cuming, Dodge, Burt, Washington, Douglas, and Sarpy. There are more than 230,000 Catholics in the 140 parishes and missions. St. Cecilia Cathedral – The Mother Church for the Archdiocese of Omaha Saint Cecilia Cathedral, the “mother church” for Catholics in northeast Nebraska, is a place of daily worship, the landmark of mid-town Omaha and a destination for thousands of people each year. Catholic people from the 23 counties of northeast Nebraska comprising the Archdiocese of Omaha gather around their Archbishop each year for significant religious events and to celebrate the sacramental life of the Church in its fullness. The Cathedral is also the church and home of an active urban parish. The parish grade school has a century of continuous operation. It has a proud record of student achievement and has consistently received local and national recognition for its programs and faculty. Faith in action is a standard that has guided the parish to be effective in works of mercy, in witnessing to justice and in partnerships within the ecumenical and civic community.

  Bishop Machebeuf High School was established in 1958 and is named after Bishop Joseph P. Machebeuf, the first bishop of Colorado.   The Early Days As early as 1942, Monsignor Harold Campbell contemplated the creation of a new Archdiocesan High School - Machebeuf High School . While serving as pastor of Blessed Sacrament, Monsignor Campbell secured the bulk of the land required to build the anticipated high school. Additional land was purchased in 1953, when it became increasingly clear that the school-age population in Denver was soaring.   Official announcement of the new school came in April 1956 and construction began in September 1957. The first freshman class was enrolled a year later. Archbishop Urban J. Vehr dedicated the new high school on September 27, 1959.   In 1985, the school became Machebeuf Catholic High School. Two years later, Machebeuf’s West Campus at 18th and Pennsylvania was added in 1987. In 1996 the school was renamed Bishop Machebeuf Catholic High School to clearly identify with the school's namesake, Bishop Joseph Machebeuf.   Move to Lowry Honoring the past and looking to the future, more than 700 people gathered January 9, 2000 for the dedication Mass of the new $8.5 million, Bishop Machebeuf High School, on the Lowry campus in Denver. Archbishop Charles J. Chaput presided at the Mass and was joined by Father Rocco Porter, school chaplain, and Msgr. Walker Nickless, Vicar General and alumnus of the school.   In 2008, Machebeuf celebrated its 50th year of being an academic community of faith that strives to form the hearts, minds, and souls of our students in the gospel of Jesus Christ and in the living tradition of the Catholic Church.   Who We Are?   Mission Statement Based on the foundation and heritage of Bishop Joseph P. Machebeuf, our mission is to be an academic community of faith that strives to form the hearts, minds, and souls of our students in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the living Tradition of the Catholic Church.   A Spirit of Community Everyone at Bishop Machebeuf High School is an important member of the community.

Machebeuf is proud to have earned this award in 2006, 2007, 2008 and in 2012. The award measures a school's strength in three main areas: Academic Excellence, Civic Education, and Catholic Identity. For more information, visit  catholichonorroll.org .   Bishop Joseph P. Machebeuf - Apostle of Colorado Joseph Projectus Machebeuf was born August 11, 1812 in Riom, France to Michael and Gilbert Machebeuf. He entered seminary in 1831 and was ordained to the priesthood on December 17, 1836.   In 1839, he accepted the invitation of Bishop John Baptist Purcell to join the Diocese of Cincinnati, Ohio. He had to sneak out of France because his father did not approve of him becoming a missionary to North America. Upon arriving in America, he was assigned to a parish in Tiffin, Ohio and later served as the pastor at a parish in Lower Sandusky.   In 1850, Fr. Machebeuf accompanied Bishop John-Baptiste Lamy to New Mexico and there he served as a pastor of two parishes in Albuquerque and then in Sante Fe from 1853-1860.   In 1860 he was sent to Colorado to establish the Church in this area. On a visit to a mountain community in 1863 he was descending through the mountains, was thrown from his carriage and lamed for life. On August 16, 1868, Fr. Machebeuf was ordained a Bishop and assigned as the Vicar Apostolic of Colorado and Utah territories. When the Diocese of Denver was established in 1887 Bishop Machebeuf was named the first Bishop of Denver.   "When Fr. Machebeuf came to Colorado in 1860 he was... without a single church, or roof over his head; when he was made bishop he had but three priests within his jurisdiction; when he died the Diocese of Denver counted 64 priests, 102 churches and chapels, 9 academies, 1 college, 1 orphan asylum, and over 3,000 children in Catholic Schools!   "This was primarily the work of one man, and that man was Bishop Machebeuf. In contemplating it we must concede that its author was a great priest, a great bishop, and merited well the title by which posterity shall know him - THE APOSTLE OF COLORADO." (William J. Howlett, Life of the Right Reverend Joseph P. Machebeuf)   All-in-all Bishop Joseph Machebeuf travelled more than 100,000 miles throughout Colorado, Utah, Nebraska and Texas building up the church in his 29 years in Colorado. He placed ads in newspapers all over the world inviting priests to come out West to build the church in Colorado. He travelled back to France many times begging his brother priests to come to Colorado to serve the church here.   He died on July 10, 1889 at the age of 76.   In June of 1991, a mountain just east of Loveland Pass was named "Mount Machebeuf" in honor of the first Bishop of Colorado. The mountain is 12,805 feet tall and can be seen from Interstate 70. A dedication Mass was celebrated at the summit by Rev. Richard Ling and Rev. Ed Hoffman in June 1991 using one of Bishop Joseph P. Machebeuf's chalices that he used in the 1880s.   Mount Machebeuf - highest peak on the right June of 1991, a mountain just east of Loveland Pass was named "Mount Machebeuf" in honor of the first Bishop of Colorado.

Founded in 2013, Catholic Benefits Association (CBA) advocates for and litigates in defense of our members’ First Amendment rights to provide health insurance and benefits to their employees in an manner consistent with the Catholic faith. A growing and diverse coalition of Catholic organizations make up the CBA. We have obtained federal injunctive relief for both our current members and future members from the Health and Human Services’ implementation of the Affordable Care Act. Introduced in 2012, this mandate requires employers to cover contraceptives, abortifacients, sterilization procedures and contraceptive counseling in their employee health insurance. It directly infringes upon the freedom of Catholic employers to conduct business in a manner consistent with their sincerely held religious beliefs. Since then CBA has engaged in litigation against other federally mandated assaults on religious liberty such as mandatory coverage of abortion, comprehensive transgender services and same-sex benefits. Seven Archbishops are joined by prominent lay Catholics to make up our Board of Directors, who work with the support of leading legal professionals, bioethicists, theologians and other Church authorities. As the political landscape continues to shift, we look ahead to determine how our members can conduct business without compromising their religious beliefs. We work relentlessly to safeguard your right to do business in a manner that is ethical and consistent with our Catholic faith.

Welcome to Catholic Mission Trips, Inc., where we help faithful Catholics fulfill their call to serve the poor. Catholic Mission Trips, Inc. had its beginnings 15 years ago. Inspired by Bl. Mother Theresa and St. Pope John Paul II, Steve Nasche, a Youth Director for a Catholic Parish, wanted to do a mission trip to let American youth experience the culture and spirituality of Mexico, as well as assist the people by building homes, chapels, and schools. He contacted person after person and made call after call looking for a place. Finally, he got in touch with Sr. Norma and the relationship with the Missionaries of Jesus was born! Steve began planning mission trips every summer for the Catholic parish he was working for and continued the annual Mexico Mission Trip for his 8 years as a parish youth director. Eventually word got out and soon Steve had other catholic parishes joining him. Thus the concept of Catholic Mission Trips began. We understand that there are lots of people out there who would love to go on a mission trip, but just don’t have any connections or think it’s too difficult to plan. That is where Catholic Mission Trips, Inc., comes in. We do the planning and handle all the logistics for you. All the parish group needs to do is sign up and come. We handle everything else. We make it as easy as possible for groups to have a mission trip experience. We have experienced an overwhelming response since our humble beginnings. We have been a part of mission trips to Mexico, Costa Rica, Honduras, Haiti, Belize, Dominican Republic, South Texas, New Mexico, Joplin, and New Orleans. Highlights: In 2010 we hired our first 5 full time summer staff members and in the summer of 2012, we had 13 full time staff members.  In 2011 we received our official nonprofit status from the IRS. Catholic Mission Trips Inc. is a 501c3 nonprofit based in Texas. Now all donations to Catholic Mission Trips, Inc.,  are tax deductible. In 2014 we hired our first full time staff member.

About Us Our Mission Catholic Social Services of Washtenaw County is a member agency of the Diocese of Lansing Catholic Charities. “The mission of Catholic Charities is the work of the Catholic Church, to share the love of Christ by performing the corporal and spiritual works of mercy.” As a member of our community, we believe our work attains the greatest benefit when we join with our neighbors and colleagues to create a responsive, compassionate society where all are valued, honored and have the opportunity to thrive. In seeking justice and changing lives, we honor God. Our Vision Help people live safe, meaningful and independent lives, in a more just community. Our Core Values Dignity of all creation Compassion Preferential option for people who are disadvantaged Community Stewardship Catholic Social Teaching History The Way We Were & Who We Are Today When the Diocese of Detroit and community leaders established Catholic Social Services in May 1959, the mission was to extend a helping hand to struggling families regardless of their faith, race or economic background. We salute the legacy and foresight of these remarkable individuals who understood the value of their undertaking. Embracing the tenets of Catholic social teaching, the new agency dedicated itself to changing the lives of our neighbors in the most vulnerable circumstances. That is as true today as it was 50 years ago. Certainly, Washtenaw County was a much different place in 1959. The Big Three automakers were the only players in town—what was good for GM truly was good for the country. A gallon of gas cost 25 cents. Barbie Dolls and Motown launched that year while families gathered around their black and white TVs watching the antics of Beaver Cleaver. Americans feared the threat of nuclear war made all the more ominous by Fidel Castro’s Cuban revolution. As you would expect, the mindset of the 1950’s also influenced how CSSW approached the issues of the day. The discourse surrounding out-of-wedlock pregnancies was uttered, if at all, in hushed, disapproving tones; no one would have encouraged an unmarried mom to parent or openly communicate with her child’s adoptive family. Divorce was blamed for nearly all family dysfunction. Domestic abuse was years away from public scrutiny and growing older typically meant growing feeble. The Agency’s founding philosophy of family preservation affirmed these deeply held beliefs, which by contemporary standards may seem quaint, naïve or even dogmatic. Today’s vision—to help people live safe, meaningful and independent lives, in a more just community—is much broader, reflecting the increasing diversity of our contemporary culture. In addition to offering more than two dozen programs designed for myriad life challenges, we also collaborate on initiatives with our colleagues in the non-profit and government sectors. Without a doubt, CSSW has come a long way. Though subtle, our role as an agency has evolved from helping clients achieve social parity to promoting personal empowerment. That being said, we would never be where we are today if it wasn’t for the commitment of our founders from the Diocese, local parishes and the community at large. They put into action the teachings of the Catholic Church to support those most in need. With gratitude and a good dose of humility, let us honor those board members, staff and volunteers who came before us as CSSW looks forward to starting its second 50 years. Clearly, there is much work yet to be done, needs new and timeless, that are still unmet. It is a tall order, but one we enthusiastically embrace. Because changing lives—then, now and forever—is what we do.  

Established in 1959, Catholic Social Services of Washtenaw County is a member agency of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lansing. CSSW is a non-profit, social service organization that provides many services to individuals and families in need throughout Washtenaw, Jackson, and Branch Counties.

Regnum Christi (Latin for “Kingdom of Christ”) is one Movement (within the Catholic Church) comprised of four vocations: Legionaries of Christ (priestly congregation), Consecrated Women of Regnum Christi , Lay Consecrated Men of Regnum Christi and the Lay Members of Regnum Christi . Regnum Christi has a Christ-Centered spirituality that is lived together in communion with all members (all four vocations), in union with the whole Church, and through a mission to build the kingdom of Christ.  Regnum Christi also includes diocesan priests and permanent deacons. The whole Regnum Christi Movement is made up of 30,000 members throughout 38 countries world-wide working as Jesus did to: Reveal Christ’s love to people, form them as apostles and launch them in their God-given mission to build the Kingdom of Christ. Apostolic action (also known as apostolate or ministry) involves a wide range of services, educational programs and institutions, and activities that help people develop their Catholic faith and God-given talents. The apostolic action of Regnum Christi aims to bring the light of Christ to souls through missions, retreats, youth work, schools and universities, small groups, personal accompaniment, parishes and online and radio evangelization. Regnum Christi members strive to bring the Gospel to all corners of society, confident in the support of Jesus who said: “I am with you always, until the end of the age” (Matthew 28:20). We work personally with people seeking their mission in life, in small faith groups and by providing spiritual experiences that can be life-changing. Regnum Christi tries to foster in its members a spirit of initiative and a deep love for the Church. It aims to remind them of their baptismal duty to make the faith a key part of all their relationships — in their families, parishes, workplaces and social circles.

Christ in the City is a Catholic non-profit dedicated to forming missionaries, volunteers and communities in KNOWING, LOVING and SERVING   the poor. Check out our approach to street ministry and simple ways you can join us from wherever you are. Christ  in the City began its work with Denver’s poor and homeless in the summer of 2010.  The organization began under the  auspices of Catholic Charities in Denver as a way to form young people to be  life-long missionaries. In the 2011, Christ in the City was entrusted to the Christian Life Movement (CLM) as the service arm of their mission in the United States.  Missionaries are spiritually guided by the priests and lay men and women of the Christian Life Movement, whose community plays a vital role in the spiritual formation of Christ in the City.   FOUR PILLARS OF FORMATION INTELLECTUAL Education in the Catholic faith and it’s social justice teachings equip us to apply faith and reason to our daily work and lives. Thanks to the help of  Our Sunday Visitor ,  Missionaries take  accredited courses with the University of Mary and the Augustine Institute. SPIRITUAL To bring the love of Christ to others, we must first experience Him ourselves. Missionaries are guided by members of the Christian Life Movement to deepen their relationship with Christ through personal prayer, Mass, Liturgy of the Hours, and spiritual direction. HUMAN The most fundamental of our four pillars. In human formation we develop the human qualities and character of each missionary. Community life allows us to grow in self-knowledge and to learn how to be holy in the practical demands of human life. APOSTOLIC The homeless are often served materially by people and yet go unknown and unloved by them.  Authentic friendship can transform a life and lead to change in a person, namely: freedom from addiction, meaningful work, housing and reconciliation with God.

The Corpus Christi Cathedral is a religious icon, a source of inspiration and consolation to our Catholic and non-Catholic community. The Cathedral continues to be the center of diocesan services. The Sunday Mass is televised for shut-ins. We are the leaders in music programs, inspirational liturgies and attracting visitors to the city. It is our intention to make everyone's experience of the Catholic Church as uplifting as possible.

Our mission is to guide all people to encounter the beauty of creation and the Creator through service to the poor, mission trips, outdoor adventure and environmental stewardship. Through these experiences, we work to create an environment of encounter – encounter with God, with ourselves, with others, and with creation. Creatio members are volunteers, professionals, and friends working to address environmental and human issues on a deeper level. Our goal is to facilitate an active transformation of ourselves and others, as well as the environment. Creatio is a Catholic 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in Colorado, USA. Creatio’s spirituality is focused on strengthening the four relationships: relationship with self, with one another, with nature and with God. We encourage all of our missionaries to be open to experience a deepening of these relationships while on our trips.   Creatio was founded in 2002 by a group of U.S. college students with the goal of serving the poorest of the poor in Peru. That do-it-yourself mission trip soon became another mission, and another, and eventually the identity and purpose of Creatio became apparent:  to guide all people to encounter the beauty of creation and the Creator through service to the poor, mission trips, outdoor adventure, and environmental stewardship.   True to our roots, we strongly believe in taking action whenever and wherever a need arises.  As an organization we exist for you, and want to help you achieve your vision, the same way our founder and his friends achieved theirs on that first mission trip.   Please contact us if our current   Experiences   do not meet a need you’ve discovered or an idea that you have.  We can help you get started planning, connect you with others, help fundraising, and help you achieve your vision for a better you and a better world. WE   NEED    ADVENTURE  MISSIONARIES Creatio can’t do it alone! We need missionaries to help bring the joy of Christ and humanitarian aid to those most in need. Join us on one of our upcoming adventure missions where you will experience first-hand the impact of serving the poorest of the poor while growing in deep friendships with your fellow missionaries and those you serve.    

Cross Catholic Outreach's priority is to help "the poorest of the poor."  Our efforts reach those suffering extreme poverty in countries throughout the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Projects include relief for earthquake, flood and tsunami victims, care and education for orphans and other vulnerable children, housing for the homeless, medicines and health care for the indigent, food for families suffering extreme malnutrition, and clean water for communities that have none, as well as micro-enterprise programs and other long-term development efforts to break the cycle of poverty. In every case, our method of outreach is the same: Cross Catholic locates needy Catholic-based ministries serving the poor and distributes material aid through their existing programs. In this way, we can supply meaningful help where it is needed most. In all our work we remain dedicated in our service to the Lord as good stewards of His resources in every challenge we seek to overcome.

Founded in 2001 as a parish initiative to help young people “live the adventure” of their Catholic faith through Catholic Youth Summer Camp, now Damascus Catholic Mission has embarked upon a multi-year plan for and sustainability of our permanent campus, which will be developed into a fully-featured adventure camp, a leadership and training institute, and a retreat and conference center that will be a blessing to the Church for years to come.

About the Diocese The Diocese of Allentown was formed on January 28, 1961, when Pope John XXIII signed a document separating the counties of Berks, Carbon, Lehigh, Northampton and Schuylkill from the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. The news became public February 15. The following April 11, Bishop Joseph McShea, then auxiliary bishop of Philadelphia, was installed as the first Bishop of Allentown by Archbishop Egidio Vagnozzi, Apostolic Delegate to the United States in the new Cathedral Church of Saint Catharine of Siena in Allentown. Bishop Thomas Welsh succeeded Bishop McShea in 1983, followed by Bishop Edward Cullen in 1998 and Bishop John Barres in 2009. Like Bishop McShea, Bishops Welsh and Cullen were former Auxiliary Bishops of Philadelphia. Bishop Barres was a priest of the Diocese of Wilmington, DE, when he was appointed. He became the first priest ordained a Bishop in Allentown’s Cathedral of St. Catharine of Siena. Seven-and-a-half years later, he became the first Allentown Bishop to be transferred when Pope Francis appointed him the Fifth Bishop of the Diocese of Rockville Centre, NY. As the Fifth Bishop of Allentown, Pope Francis, on June 27, 2017 appointed Monsignor Alfred A. Schlert.

  We are a diocesan Catholic high school with enrollment hovering around 900.  With a legacy of excellence that spans over 130 years, we are proud and honored to partner with our parent community and our parishes to educate and form the young people of the Catholic Diocese of Wichita on the east side of Wichita, Kansas.  Our mission at Kapaun Mt. Carmel Catholic High School is to be dedicated to the education and formation of the total person in the image of Jesus Christ.  We are mission driven.  Our philosophies, policies, prayers and curricula, are intentionally designed to support this mission.    Kapaun Mt. Carmel Catholic High School is dedicated to the education and formation of the total person in the image of Jesus Christ. Kapaun Mt. Carmel Catholic High School has its roots in a small girls’ academy, 21 students strong, called All Hallows Academy, opened in 1886 by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (we know them as “the BVMs”). All Hallows Academy occupied a beautiful complex of buildings built on the banks of the Arkansas River near downtown Wichita. As the story goes, upon opening the school, our first principal, Sister Mary Veronica, BVM, planted several trees at the entrance.  Overnight, the ever present winds of the Kansas prairie blew the trees out of the ground.  The next day, Sister Mary Veronica replanted the trees only to have them blown over again.  On the third day, in an act of Trinitarian conquest, Sister Mary Veronica planted the trees a third time, boldly proclaiming that we were establishing roots here no matter what.  The next morning, the trees remained erect, and the school took root.  Sister Mary Veronica’s dedication to the survival of those trees was but a foreshadowing of the dedication it would take to shepherd our school all the way to today. In 1900, Bishop John Hennesey, Bishop of Wichita, requested that the name of All Hallows Academy be changed because of the negative connotation associated with the purely secular holiday of Halloween.  The BVMs chose the name Mt. Carmel Academy, after their Mother House in Dubuque, Iowa.  Mt. Carmel Academy has existed ever since, graduating a class of seniors in every year since 1887. In 1956, the Catholic Diocese of Wichita, in conjunction with the Jesuit order of Catholic Priests, opened an all boys school on the east side of Wichita.  This school was named after Father Emil Kapaun (pronounced "KAY pehn"), a priest of the Diocese of Wichita.  Fr. Kapaun became a chaplain of the United States Army during the second world war and again during the Korean War. In November, 1950, Fr. Kapaun, serving in the 1st Cavalry of the US Army, was captured in the Battle of Unsan, a particularly brutal battle wherein Chinese soldiers, having sneaked in to North Korea to aid their political allies, overran the tremendously outnumbered American troops.  Fr. Kapaun's stories of service, faithfulness and bravery before and during his period of captivity are well-documented.  He died in a North Korean prison camp on May 23, 1951.     The Jesuit preparatory school for young men was called Chaplain Kapaun Memorial High School.  Bishop Mark K. Carroll, Bishop of Wichita, consolidated Chaplain Kapaun Memorial and Mount Carmel Academy in 1971, forming Kapaun Mt. Carmel Catholic High School.  The co-educational school now operates under the auspices of the Catholic Diocese of Wichita. Kapaun Mt. Carmel is accredited by AdvanEd, the State of Kansas and the National Catholic Education Association. Institutional membership is held in the National Association of College Admissions Counselors and many professional organizations.
