The wraps are in fine condition. 7 x 5, 12 pages, 2 ounces XX [from the text] HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL SIGNIFICANCE: The Ursuline community in San Antonio was the second Ursuline Community established in the state of Texas. Introduction of this community in 1851 was a signal achievement for the Reverend John Mary Odin, C. M. , later the first Roman Catholic Bishop of Texas, in his struggle to reawaken dormant Catholicism in the state. Shortly after their arrival, the Ursuline Sisters opened their school, believed to be the first in San Antonio and the second in Texas established solely for the education of young girls. All of the major Academy buildings erected during the nineteenth century survive today to form an architectural complex unique to this state. These buildings range from the first Academy building erected in 1851, in a plain style but with handsome proportions, to the Priest's house erected in 1882, one of the best examples in Texas of the late Gothic revival style of architecture. HISTORICAL INFORMATION: Prior to the time that Texas became a republic, the Roman Catholic religion in Texas had been administered by the clergy of the Spanish or Mexican Church. For a number of reasons, not the least of which was the relationship between the Mexican Church and the Mexican Government, Catholicism suffered a great decline during the revolutionary period. By 1838 or 1839 there were only two priests in the entire Republic, and they were both in San Antonio and in ill repute. This circumstance was made known to Pope Gregory XVI in a report by the Archbishop of New Orleans, Reverend J. Timon, following a brief survey of conditions in Texas. As a result of this report, the Pope resolved to establish a distinct jurisdiction in Texas, and in 1839 the Reverend J. Timon was appointed Prefect Apostolic and the Reverend John M. Odin, Vice Prefect. Odin was charged with the duty to proceed to Texas where he was to undertake the task of revitalizing the Catholic Institutions in the Republic.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - How open is our culture to recreation and sports The popular culture today is saturated with recreation and sports. The Olympics, Super Bowl, World Series, X-Games, Iron Man events, the Final Four in college basketball, and the playoff series in professional basketball capture the imaginations of millions of people in America each time they are held. The questions are, according to general editor John Garner, where is the church and how is the church using these tools to reach people, and will the church see the opportunity to use recreation and sports as ministry tools The fact is, most churches are not reaching the postmodern culture and are being ignored by an increasingly non-Christian American culture because people see no relevance to their lives. What they do see relevance in is re-creative leisure; they pursue it at break-neck speed and often at great costs. Somehow the church must learn to 'capture the imagination' of a world that is passing it by. If the church can capture the imaginations of people, it can get their attention, can gain access to their minds, and can reach the heart with the message of the love of God.…
