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.

First of all, it’s not about us. It’s about an encounter with the living God. For the past 20 years, everything we have done at Ascension has been aimed to help Catholics have that encounter. From our   Bible studies   to our   sacramental prep programs , from our   Q&A-style books   to our   free online videos , everything has been focused on that encounter. That is the longing of our hearts, and the longing of every heart until it rests in God. After helping over 1,000,000 Catholics and 8,000 parishes, and producing more than 50 faith formation programs, we believe that the “secret” to an encounter with God really isn’t so secret … it can all be found in the promise made by Jesus himself: For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them —Matthew 18:20 That’s a promise. And it’s a promise from the highest source there is, a promise from the God who never breaks his word. So we do the best thing any sinner can do in this world; we trust the promise of God; and we base our programs and studies on that promise. When you run an Ascension program, you are acting on your trust in that promise. You are meeting in a group in the name of Jesus, in the name of understanding his Word, trusting—as we do—in the power of God’s promise that he will truly be present in your midst. That’s not a light thing to say. But we didn’t say it. God did. Whether you’re just starting out on your faith journey or well along the road, we have something for you because we have been there, too.

Leadership & Mission Catholic Values and Strong Academics Assumption College, a Catholic institution sponsored by the Augustinians of the Assumption and rooted in the Catholic intellectual tradition, strives to form graduates known for critical intelligence, thoughtful citizenship and compassionate service. We pursue these ambitious goals through a curriculum grounded in the liberal arts and extending to the domain of professional studies. Enlivened by the Catholic affirmation of the harmony of faith and reason, we aim, by the pursuit of the truth, to transform the minds and hearts of students. Assumption favors diversity and ecumenically welcomes all who share its goals. A message from the President Choosing a college may be the most important decision you have ever had to consider. You may have already received materials from a number of other institutions, as well as ideas and recommendations from family and friends.  There are many reasons bright, motivated students choose to attend Assumption. As you explore our Web site, you will find a wealth of information related to our excellent programs and our close-knit community. For now, I would like to share three of the reasons that I mention most often when describing Assumption to prospective students and their families. Top liberal arts college with strong business and professional programs. Our students are exposed to an array of disciplines that expand their minds and enhance their critical thinking skills as they consider new ideas, new ways of looking at the world, and new ways of questioning. Faculty members create an academically stimulating environment that challenges students to achieve their full potential as they think through their values and life. At the same time, the skills students learn at Assumption also prepare them for successful and rewarding careers.  Catholic intellectual tradition, unique among colleges. In the Assumpionist tradition we encourage intellectual, social and personal growth. We take religion and faith seriously as an integral part of the human experience. We explore questions that get to the deepest desires of the human heart and recognize the role of faith and reason in the search for truth. Our students encounter ideas that have contributed to the formation of a Christian outlook on the world that reflects the type of education envisioned by Fr. Emmanuel d’Alzon, the founder of the Assumptionists. Whatever a student’s faith, we believe that the Assumption experience provides opportunities for personal spiritual growth and the development of a set of values that will encourage students to use their knowledge in service to others. It is an atmosphere that is intellectually challenging, personally rewarding and spiritually fulfilling.  A place where people look out for one another . When you choose Assumption, you can count on receiving personal attention from kind, friendly people throughout the community. Faculty, administrators, staff, religious, and students all work together to ensure that everyone here is valued and supported. Assumption is small enough so that people know students as individuals, and large enough for students to find diverse opportunities. Experiences inside and outside the classroom help shape a student’s “personal compass” and encourage intellectual, social, and personal growth. If these characteristics reflect what you are looking for, I encourage you to explore our site further and learn more about us. I also hope you will consider visiting Assumption’s beautiful campus and meeting some of the people who make our community so special. Thank you for your interest in Assumption. Warm regards, Francesco C. Cesareo, Ph.D. President 

  The Augustine Institute serves the formation of Catholics for the  New Evangelization . Through our academic and parish programs, we equip Catholics intellectually, spiritually, and pastorally to renew the Church and transform the world for Christ. Our History Responding to the Call During the 1993 World Youth Day in Denver, Saint Pope John Paul II called Catholics to a New Evangelization, to renew our commitment to Christ, so that we might live our faith fearlessly and proclaim it to all people. He chose Denver, Colorado to instill confidence among Catholics worldwide that modern society, with all its sophistication and technical know-how, still hungers for Christ! In 2005, as a response to this call, Catholic scholars established in Denver a graduate school dedicated to transforming Catholic education for the New Evangelization. Since then, the Augustine Institute has become the fastest growing Catholic graduate school in the United States, training our students to proclaim the Gospel with “ new ardor, method and expression ,” as Saint Pope John Paul II insisted. What began as a graduate school has quickly expanded into a multi-faceted Institute providing strategic disciple-based parish programming and leadership formation to dioceses and parishes across America. What makes the Augustine Institute unique? Forming Leaders for The New Evangelization :  We believe the New Evangelization requires Catholics to reclaim a faithful orthodoxy while being witnesses to the living Gospel in our post-Christian culture. A Faculty with Theological Expertise & Pastoral Experience:   Evangelization is as much a skilled practice as it is a mission. Our faculty is unique in its blend of advanced theological degrees and pastoral experience on the front lines of the New Evangelization. Discipleship Driven:   Well-formed disciples make Catholicism compelling and relevant. Leaders for the New Evangelization must be personally discipled by those who are passionate for Christ. We equip lay leaders with the training and parish programming they need to bring the faith alive. State of the Art Methods and Technology:   We must be vanguards of the New Evangelization, imparting ancient wisdom through modern media and technology. Our facility, located in the heart of the Denver Tech Center, features state-of-the-art video production, online delivery methodologies, and a professional production team with a wealth of media experience.

About BECA is a 501©3 organization that recruits, trains, and supports English-speaking volunteer teachers to staff a network of community-run bilingual schools in Honduras that serve low-income communities. Mission BECA exists to provide quality, affordable bilingual education to the educationally disenfranchised while fostering meaningful cultural exchange. Our Story BECA founder Jaime Koppel first traveled to Honduras in 2001 to serve as a teacher and Administrator for a fledgling bilingual school that was established to aid low-income students in Cofradia, Cortes. Two years later, while working with families from the same community, Jaime set up BECA as a US-based non-profit organization to support San Jeronimo Bilingual School (SJBS), a new school for low-income students that would be operated by local Honduran stakeholders. BECA entered into an agreement with SJBS parents in 2004 and on September 1 of that year, SJBS opened as BECA’s first community-partner school. It was built as a labor of love with community members working together to purchase materials and construct the school in their free time over the course of four months. Since the 2004-2005 school year, SJBS has grown by leaps and bounds in terms of the quality of education provided, the resources available to students and teachers, and improvements to the building and grounds. Likewise, BECA has worked to professionalize its activities: creating a 6-week teacher training institute, drafting its own custom curriculum, and implementing policies and procedures to govern the school year. In recent years, BECA has expanded our outreach and now partners with three community-based organizations in Honduras. Our team of about 30 volunteers and 20 Honduran co-workers provide a bilingual education to over 600 students, Pre-K – 9th grade.

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.

The Diocese of Lexington was established in 1988 by Pope John Paul II. The diocese was formed from parts of the Archdiocese of Louisville and the Diocese of Covington, covering almost 16,400 square miles and representing 50 counties in Central and Eastern Kentucky. The Diocese of Lexington serves the Horse Capital of the World, with its lavish horse-farms as well as central Appalachia. The 40 Appalachian counties of Lexington are the "other America," where 74 percent of children live below the federal poverty line. The Catholic population of the diocese, at 3% of the total, is very small. In addition, an estimated 60% of the total population within the bounds of the diocese does not belong to any church or denomination, although most of the residents would identify themselves as Christian. The city of Lexington and the surrounding counties are a center of commerce, transportation and education; within this generally prosperous area, however, there are many people in need. The majority of the counties within the diocese are rural and mountain areas, facing the challenges of high rates of unemployment, high rates of poverty, and the problems that affect communities when so many lack basic necessities. Thus, the Diocese of Lexington is designated as a mission diocese within the United States: the geographic, demographic and economic characteristics indicate an acute need to evangelize Gospel values and to provide outreach services elevating human dignity and eliminating human suffering.

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.

Mt 28:18 VULNERABLE INTIMACY Growth in the spiritual life begins with an act of vulnerability and vulnerability is the root of intimacy. This is the basis of friendship that we foster in our community. We "share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves." cf. 1 Thes2:8

In the Heart of the Church “Faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth” (John Paul II,   Fides et ratio ). At the School of Theology and Religious Studies, we are committed to contemplating the truth by God’s gifts of faith and reason, and we strive to do so in the communion of the Church, nourished by the Eucharist, the source and summit of the Church’s life. No truth is alien to us: while most of us work in the theological sciences, others work in the realm of religious studies, bringing to bear the best of the social sciences and historical research in pursuit of greater understanding of religion, especially in its complex intersection with human culture.    As the nation’s premier Catholic University, The Catholic University of America has long played a leadership role in larger conversations: conversations within the Catholic Church about matters of intense social and theological importance; conversations between the Catholic Church and other Christian communities in the United States and beyond; and conversations between the Catholic Church and American society. It has played this leadership role first and foremost by the theological education provided by the School of Theology and Religious Studies to its students, great numbers of whom have gone on to play leadership roles at every level of society, in the United States and throughout the world, and by the research, publications, and public contributions of its faculty.

Mission Statement Central Catholic High School is a college preparatory school educating young men, from diverse backgrounds, in the Marianist tradition for success through the development of scholarship, leadership and moral character.   Marianist School Core Values Formation in Faith | Quality Education | Family Spirit | Adaption and Change Educate for service, justice, and peace   The first boys' school in San Antonio and still one of the largest all-male private secondary schools in the state of Texas, Central Catholic High School remains a prestigious landmark in San Antonio and a symbol throughout South Texas of teaching excellence. "This school originated at a time when San Antonio lacked a boys' school of any kind. Bishop Jean-Marie Odin obtained teachers in France from the Society of Mary: Nicholas Koenig, Jean-Baptiste Laignounse, and Xavier Mauclerc. Andrew Edel, another Marianist from Ohio, was the principal. San Antonio layman Timothy O'Neil also joined the staff. The school opened March 25, 1852, in two rooms over a livery stable near San Fernando Cathedral. During that winter, the Brothers erected a building near the San Antonio River. 'Saint Mary's Institute' occupied that campus on March 1, 1853, and ended the school year with 100 pupils of various creeds. Enrolled as day students were Anglo, French, German, and Mexican-Americans. South Texas ranch boys attended as boarders. After expanding that building, the Brothers erected others, including a four-story 'skyscraper' unique for the 1870's. St. Mary's University was an outgrowth in 1893. After several changes of names and facilities, Central Catholic High School, in 1932, become another successor of the pioneer effort." Throughout its history, Central Catholic has earned renown as an academic and spiritual leader in values-based education. As a result, through seven generations of graduates, Central Catholic has provided the community with men achieving what is truly good in their roles as citizens. Graduates include doctors, teachers, priests and deacons, businessmen, lawyers, military and political leaders. Since 1852, Central Catholic's tradition of academic excellence has been rooted in the Marianist philosophy of a well-rounded education. A truly enriching high school experience encompasses many elements of learning that may take place outside a typical classroom setting.  Central Catholic's also offers quality sports prograthletics program encourages students to practice Marianist values by demonstrating sportsmanship while striving to attain competitive excellence. With a variety of sports offered, athletics provides growth promoting experiences, prepares students for success as they develop competencies through collaboration with others to achieve personal and group goals. Central Catholic’s Athletic Department strives to augment the students’ education through participation in interscholastic sports while working to provide an environment with personnel and activities which foster physical, intellectual, spiritual, emotional, and social mature growth. It is the mission of the department to help provide students the appropriate underlying principles of Marianist education; spiritual, family, and community values, within competitive experiences.
