Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Ecclesiastical Review, Vol. 35: A Monthly Publication for the Clercy The subject The Catholic Church in the United States and Mission Work which I have been requested to treat, presents a twofold aspect: what mission work has done for the American Church; and, the present duty of the American Church to the missions. What Mission Work has done for the American Church. Two periods distinguish the history of the United States: the Colonial and the National. No brighter page illumines Christian annals the the record of the labors of the Jesuits, Dominicans, and Franciscans, in the first days of the discovery of this country and during its early setdement. A second chapter of Church history begins with the establishment of they American Hierarchy, an event almost synchronous with the adoption of our Constitution. The names of the pioneers of this period Carroll, Cheverus, Flaget, Dubourg, Badin, Gallitzin, England, Cretin are an inspiration to their successors to-day; the present Church is a monument to their apostolic zeal, as well as, be it added, to the splendid generosity of Christian Europe, without which the prodigious results which they achieved could never have been accomplished.
