150 Years of Resurrectionist Presence in the US
The Volume 18 Number 19, Spring 2016 Chronicles Published for the family and friends of the Congregation of the Resurrection 150 Years of Resurrectionist Presence in the U.S. By Father James Gibson, CR This year, 2016, marks 150 years since the Congregation of the Resurrection first established a religious house in the United States of America. Although many people familiar with our Community readily associate the Resurrectionist apostolic labors with the Polish immigration to Chicago in the years after the U.S. Civil War, it was actually in Texas that the C.R.’s first organized a mission to collaborate with the growth of the U.S. Church. Thirty years after several passionate young Polish exiles had gathered to form a community under the leadership of Bogdan Janski in Paris (1836), the whole Congregation called the Brothers of the Resurrection consisted of about 40 members, half of whom were priests while the others were lay brothers and seminarians. Headquartered in Rome, the Community at this time already had established missions in Canada and Bulgaria, besides the original house in Paris. In 1864, the delegates for the General Chapter included non-Polish members for the first time – the delegates from Canada, Bulgaria and Italy – and the Superior General, Fr. Jerome Kajsiewicz, was proud to say that the fledgling Congregation now had a more universal character. Yet it was the need of Polish immigrants in the USA that was to lead to the establishment of the first mission there. The first ministry of Resurrectionists in the United States did not yet include the establishment of a community. In the same month in 1865 that the Civil War was coming to a conclusion in the southern States, Father Francis Breitkopf, C.R., was sent from Canada to make some pastoral visits to Poles living in Parisville, Michigan. Although his visits three or four times a year Continued on page 4 Reflection on the Jubilee of Mercy Merciful Like the Father By Fr. Joseph Malczyk, CR We are all familiar with the 17th century proverb: Actions speak louder than words. Ralph Waldo Emerson put it this way: “What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say.” In Matthew’s Gospel, Chapter 7, verses 16 and 20, Jesus says,” by their fruits you shall know them.” The meaning of his words is reflected in the Letter of James, Chapter 2. In verse 18 he says: “But someone will say, ‘You have faith and I have works.’ Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.” James then gives the example of Abraham who was justified by works when he offered his son Isaac on the altar. In verse 24 he adds: “You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.” He concludes in verse 26: “For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is also dead.” It is obvious that our actions are a reflection of our faith. If we say we have faith but do not back up our words with action, what we say has no meaning at all. The two words faith and action cannot be separated. Continued on page 6 1 The Chronicles CONGREGATION OF THE RESURRECTION Office of the Provincial Superior 3601 N California Avenue Chicago, IL 60618-4602 Dear Friends of the Resurrectionists, Easter, in the northern hemisphere, is a time when the ice and snow of winter turns to the daffodils, jonquils, and irises of spring. Both seasons have their beauty and allure; but there is something magical in the eruption of new foliage on the land. Spring delivers – always – a promise of new life. Your kindness to the Resurrectionist priests and brothers, over the years, has also been a promise of new life. I cannot imagine our CR ministry without your partnership with us. I see your support in caring about the various Resurrectionists who have walked with you through the large sacramental moments of life and in the small everyday events. I see it also in your inquiries about CRs who are ill or living in nursing homes. It is evident, too, in your enduring financial generosity, especially in helping finance the housing, healthcare, and feeding of our elderly brethren and trose no longer able to provide ministry. There must be many claims on your benevolence; so I want you to know that the Resurrectionists are grateful that you choose to keep us on your giving list. Every house of our province includes the intentions of our benefactors, living and deceased, in our morning and evening prayers. May the resurrection of Jesus fill us all with deep hope and abundant joy. Happy Easter! Sincerely yours in the risen Lord, Father Gene Szarek, C.R. Provincial Superior The Five Elements of the C.R. Charism God’s love for us is merciful and unfailing. God calls us to conversion. He invites us to live together as brothers in Christ Jesus. God calls us to work together for the Resurrection of society. As Resurrectionists, we model ourselves on Mary and rely on her intercession. 2 S p r i n g 2 016 THE MAKINGS OF A Bright Future Will bequest helps solidify the future of the Resurrectionists Retirement Fund Humble, generous, holy, faithful to his Catholic Religion, successful. This is how Brother Hallas, CR describes Mr Richard Tennes, who was a parishioner of St Mary of the Angels Parish in Chicago, Illinois, one of the ministries of the Resurrection Father and Brothers. At the time, Father Ed Karlowicz, CR was pastor of the parish and was the spiritual director for Mr Tennes. He owned a lamp shade factory in Bucktown, a neighborhood in Chicago, Illinois. He attended Mass every day in the church and was extremely faithful to all the sacraments in the church. He highly respected the spiritual council of Father Karlowicz, CR. One day, Father Ed invited Brother Bill to be present for lunch in the rectory. Father Ed told him that Mr Tennis wanted us to be present for the luncheon meal. Brother Bill came and, low and behold, he informed both Father Ed and Brother Bill, CR that he was leaving some of his estate to the Resurrection Fathers and Brothers. We were very amazed at the simple statements he made about how touched he was with the work of the Resurrection Fathers and Brothers in Chicago and that he wanted us to know how grateful he was for all the great work that we do in Chicago and elsewhere in the United States. He said “ You truly are men of prayer and you are very humble and dedicated to what you are all about in Resurrecting Society. “ I hope in some small way you will be able to take care of your senior members through this simple gift”. We had no idea what a great gift this would be to help our Senior Religious in the Congregation of the Resurrection. I hope that you the reader of the Chronicles will prayerfully think about leaving the Resurrection Father & Brothers in your estate planning. If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Development Director, Brother William Hallas, CR at 773- 320-5782 or e-mail him at [email protected]. Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon them – may they rest in peace. Amen Fr. Frederick Ciesla, C.R Born: Vows: Ordained: Died: June 21, 1922 August 15, 1942 June 7, 1949 January 28, 2016 Fr. Michael Danek, CR Born: December 5, 1958 Vows: May 18, 1980 Ordained: April 12, 1986 Died: May 18, 2015 Fr. Casimir Tadla, CR Born: Vows: Ordained: Died: June 30, 1920 August 15, 1940 January 6, 1948 January 25, 2016 The Congregation of the Resurrection is a community of men in the Catholic Church who live and work together under the banner of the Risen Christ. We believe that Our Lord Jesus Christ calls us to minister to those who have most need of His mercy. We ourselves have experienced the sad consequences of our sins. We understand our sinful nature. We have also tasted the Lord’s grace and have turned our lives over to His mercy. Because we have found the road of conversion, we can help others rise from the death of sin to a new life in Christ. As a religious community in the Roman Catholic Church, we work and pray together to build up the kingdom of God. 3 The Chronicles Continued from page 1 constituted the first sacramental-parish C.R. ministry in the U. S., the Community did not establish a parish there until 1868. It was in response to a plea from Polish immigrants in Texas, in the Diocese of Galveston, that the Congregation was to set up its first permanent mission in the USA. Bishop Claude Dubuis of Galveston actually travelled himself to France in search of priests to minister to the immigrants in his vast diocese; and having met some friends and benefactors of the Resurrectionists, he made known the need of some 9,000 Poles living in the settlements of Panna Maria, Bandera and San Antonio in Texas. Considering this request a sign from God, the CR General Curia in Rome decided to send three members with Bishop Dubuis on his return trip to America: they were two priests, Frs. Adolph Bakanowski, C.R., and Vincent Barzynski, C.R., and one cleric (seminarian), Felix Zwiardowski, C.R. Setting out by ship from La Havre, France, on September 28, 1866, the group of 30 French seminarians, the three Resurrectionists and Bishop Dubuis arrived first at New York Harbor and then continued by sea another fourteen days to Galveston, Texas. Their arrival on November 1, 1866, is considered the official beginning of the first Resurrectionist mission in the United States. Father Bakanowski and cleric Felix Zwiardowski were given the responsibility for the parish at Panna Maria, while Father Barzynski attended the immigrant population in San Antonio. Panna Maria (“Virgin Mary”), which is the oldest Polish settlement in the United States, had been founded in 1854 by Father Leopold Moczygemba, a Conventual Franciscan priest, who had arrived with relatives and about 100 families from Silesia (German-occupied Poland). When Father Adolph and cleric Felix arrived in 1866, the town consisted in little more than the simple run-down church building, with 74 families in the vicinity and about another 100 families within a radius of eighty miles. While cleric Felix lived in the sacristy of the church, Father Adolph occupied the nearby horse stable (along with his horse, of course!). In addition to the crying need of immigrant Catholics for pastoral attention and participation in the sacraments of the Church, the first small Resurrectionist community was confronted with a Reconstruction-era society in which violence and general delinquency was rampant, especially on the part of Southerners suffering deep resentment from their defeat at the hands of the Union. A peaceful living situation was attained for the immigrants only after a thirteen-month occupation by federal troops in 1869-1870. In Panna Maria the Resurrectionists began immediately not only to organize the parish as a family – the CR plan from its origins – but also to attend to the education of the youth. Within a month of their arrival, Felix Zwiardowski was teaching reading, writing and arithmetic to sixty children, five hours a day, in the church or a makeshift shed. Indeed, the parish elementary school at Panna Maria is recognized as the first parish school established among Polish Catholics in the USA. The concern for the establishment of schools for parish families – even before the solid construction of large churches – was to become a mark distinguishing Resurrectionist ministry from other communities led by diocesan clergy. Perhaps the watershed event for the C.R. mission to the U.S. was the first ordination of a Resurrectionist priest in this country. Father Felix Zwiardowski, C.R., was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Claude Dubuis in the Cathedral of Galveston on April 20, 1867, and celebrated his first solemn Mass at Panna Maria. While Fr. Bakanowski was named by Bishop Dubuis Vicar General for 4 all the Polish missions in Texas (an office in which he served from 1867 to 1869), Fr. Zwiardowski was to dedicate his entire priestly life to the mission in Panna Maria. When Fr. Bakanowski was called back to Rome to serve as Novice Master in 1870, Fr. Felix took his place as Superior of the Resurrectionist missions in Texas. As the movement of immigrant populations in America would slowly determine a decline in growth of the Texas settlements, the Resurrectionists decided to shift their apostolic concern to Chicago, where they would eventually grow to the point of becoming a Province (originally the Chicago Province, now the USA Province) of the Congregation of the Resurrection. The first CR foundation in the United States, which had begun in 1866, would come to an official close with the death of Fr. Felix Zwiardowski, C.R., who was buried in Panna Maria in 1895. It was in Texas that the outline of Resurrectionist apostolate was laid out: organization of parishes as families working together in unity and love; education of the youth; and publications of writings to help maintain Catholic values for immigrants. In fact, in a letter to Superior General Fr. Jerome Kajsiewicz, Mr. John Barzynski (brother of Fr. Vincent) thus described the aims of the Polish Catholic Weekly Pielgrzym (The Pilgrim), the first Polish Catholic newspaper published in the U.S. (“largely due to the efforts of the Resurrectionists, Fathers Vincent Barzynski, C.R., and Felix Zwiardowski, C.R.”): “that each Pole retain his Catholic faith, learn the language and history of Poland, but be given the chance to become a good Yankee” (quoted in Resurrectionist Charism, A history of the Congregation of the Resurrection, Vol. 1, by John Iwicki, C.R., p. 352). In the 150 years since the Lord called the Resurrectionists to widen their horizons by helping the growing Church among immigrant Americans, the Congregation has perhaps aided many a family to become “good Yankees”; but more importantly we have sought to be a living presence of the Risen Lord Jesus, announcing by our common life and our apostolic labors the unconditional love of God for all people. S p r i n g 2 016 Apple Valley Fund Raiser The Fund Raiser was held at the Country Club Golf Course in Apple Valley, California. In attendance we had 119 people. The following people were on the committee: Minnie Lopez-Baffo, Ann Raddish, Pam Herman, Irma Munoz, Yolanda Serrato and Imelda Salgado. It was a wonderful event. The food was very good with ham, turkey, cheese and fresh vegetables and fresh fruit. They also had a sweet table. Many of the people in attendance are known givers to the Congregation. Left to right Father James Gibson, CR, Father Henry Ruszel, CR, Brother William Hallas, CR, Father Delwyn Haroldson, CR, Father Gary Hogan, CR, Father Rafal Wasilewski, CR The program consisted of Father Gary Hogan, CR, thanking all for being present and Brother Bill, CR, sharing ways to give to the Seminary Education Fund. The Resurrection Merit Award was presented to the widow of Mr Kevin Olin. She thanked all especially all the Resurrectionists who have served in the parish for their kindness and support during this difficult time. It was truly a wonderful event. Father Rafal Wasilewski, CR presided at all the Masses along with Father Gary who preached and Father Del and Father Henry as concelebrants. It was truly a Resurrectionists’ weekend. Dr Ralph, DDS, was especially complementary of the Resurrectionists who serve at the Parish for their dedication to the parishioners and families.

Mike & Nancy Casey hosted the afternoon reception in their beautiful home facing Lake Arrowhead in the San Bernadino Mountains of California. What a wonderful event, I can see that our benefactors and friends always look forward to being with us for the afternoon. Wayne & Gira Brown always do such a fine job in preparing various dishes to tease our appetites. Steve & Pamela Garriety seen to always come through with some fine wines for our guests to enjoy. The Pastor of Our Lady of the Lake Parish in Lake Arrowhead, Father Michal Osuch, CR, always has something interesting to share with the group along with the rector of the seminary Father Gary Hogan, CR. We always leave the event with a smile on our faces and gratitude in our hearts to help such a worthy cause. Many Thanks for all who contribute to this great event. May our Risen Lord, always continue to bless you. 5 Steve & Denis Mantei and Family The Chronicles Continued from page 1 Pope Francis proclaimed this year as a Holy Year of Mercy. In his proclamation, he begins by saying: “Jesus Christ is the face of the Father’s mercy. These words well sum up the mystery of the Christian faith. Mercy has become living and visible in Jesus of Nazareth, reaching its culmination in him.” In the book Pope Francis The Name of God is Mercy, the author Andrea Tornielli has a conversation with the pope. In the chapter, Living the Holy Year of Mercy, Andrea asks him, “What are the most important things that a believer should do during the Holy Year of Mercy?” Pope Francis answers the question by naming the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy and adds that perhaps some aspects could be better “translated” because they open us up to the mercy of God. you do for the least of my brothers and sisters you did it for me.” What follows was taken from the Bulletin of our parish St. Matthew’s in Schaumburg on January 10th 2016. Fr. Joseph Glab, CR, without knowing the pope’s comment above, adapted each of the acts of mercy in more practical terms. I would strongly encourage you to save these Spiritual and Corporal Works and reflect on their meaning in your lives. This is just one way in which we can put our faith in action by always remembering the words of Jesus: “by their fruits you shall know them.” Also as James reminds us “faith without works is dead.” In our Resurrection Prayer, we find the words addressed to Jesus: “Use us as the instruments for the renewal of society.” We have the transforming power of the risen Lord in our hands. Let us use these hands to reach out to others with mercy and love. During this Year of Mercy, there are many practical opportunities open to us found in the Spiritual and Corporal Acts of Mercy. One of my favorite biblical quotes is found in Matthew 25:40: “Whatever SPIRITUAL WORKS OF MERCY CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY RECONCILIATION OF THE SINNER: (e.g. beginning with ourselves, pray for a personal transformation & conversion of self and for all in need of God’s Love & Mercy …) FEED THE HUNGRY: (e.g. donate food to local food pantries or shelters; assist a family in need; cook or bake your favorites for someone…) INSTRUCT THE IGNORANT: (e.g. teach by word and example, help children learn their basic prayers, teach them to pray or pray with others; have a personal conversation with God: give honor & praise to God, ask God’s forgiveness, thank God, and place before God your needs not wants …) GIVE DRINK TO THE THIRSTY: (e.g. donate juice or water to food pantries or shelters, check up on a friend or the elderly, especially, parents, grandparents, brothers or sisters, neighbors …) CLOTHE THE NAKED: (e.g. donate your clean or slightly used men, women or children’s clothes or shoes to charitable service organizations …) COUNSEL THE DOUBTFUL: (e.g. offer advice to a person making a spiritual decision, listen to the concerns of others …) SHELTER THE HOMELESS: (e.g. support a homeless shelter; make a donation to Alexian Brothers Boneventure House; support recovery centers for those with addictions, and walk the walk with those who need encouragement …) BEAR WRONGS PATIENTLY: (e.g. follow the Gospel of Matthew: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.) FORGIVE OFFENCES WILLINGLY: (e.g. forgive those who have injured you in anyway, and let the wounds begin to heal …) VISIT THE SICK: (e.g. at home, in the hospital or nursing home or make a friendly call …) PRAY FOR THE LIVING AND THE DEAD: (e.g. remember and pray for the sick, the lonely, those who are oppressed, those with mental, physical, emotional or faith issues, those with addictions, the unemployed or under employed, refugees, migrants and victims of war …, remember the dying and those who cross the threshold from this life to the next; light a candle in remembrance and with love and appreciation …) RANSOM THE CAPTIVE: (e.g. visit the imprisoned, or participate in writing cards or letters to the home bound or in nursing homes …) BURY THE DEAD: (e.g. comfort those who grieve; attend wake services or burial services of family, relatives and friends and call and console the grieving afterwards as well …) GIVE ALMS TO THE POOR: (e.g. greet and speak to the individual and consider what a cup of coffee or a sandwich costs today; donate to your favorite charity …) 6 S p r i n g 2 016 2015 Resurrection Memorials In Memory of +Jack Redmond Mike & Jeannette Derum In Memory of +Thomas Aquinas Campbell Mike & Jeannette Derum In Memory of +Ovidio Marandy Rocko & Cook Families In Memory of +William Faber Chet and Patty Rocko In Memory of +Joyce Schlembach Joan Walker In Memory of +Richard Hendler Joan Walker In Memory of +James E.

Bequests are free of estate tax, and can substantially reduce the amount of your assets claimed by the government. You can give needed support for the Congregation of the Resurrection-USA Province by simply including the following words in your will: I, give, devise and bequeath to the Congregation of the Resurrection-USA Province, 3601 N California Avenue, Chicago, IL 60618 (insert amount being given here) to be used to support the ministry of the Congregation of the Resurrection-USA Province. A bequest can be a specific dollar amount, specific piece of property, a percentage of an estate, or all or part of the residue of an estate. You can also name the Congregation of the Resurrection-USA Province as a contingency beneficiary in the event someone named in your will is no longer living. It is recommended that a lawyer help in drafting or amending a will. 12 James & Jane Gorecki Ms Dorothy Gorny Susan Gosewehr Peter & Marguerite Grealish Ms Joanne Gregoire John & Katie Gresko Patricia Griffin Patricia A.
