Silly Little Cain/Nimrod: Project Vatican is dedicated to the restoration of the Global
Kingdom of the/their United Nations sponsored
luciferic New Age Christ in the third millennium of
Roman Catholicism. The means by which
this restoration is being accomplished are six-fold:
I.
Their
Jesuit infiltration of the English colonies on the
North American continent.
Using forged papers and secret aliases, the Jesuits set up an
underground network of political operatives that paved the way for
the Vatican to send a second dispatch, this time consisting of
multitudes of Roman Catholic families posing as Protestants.
Gradually and unobtrusively, this underground network was able to
infiltrate the civil governments at every level, therefore
abolishing existing legal sanctions against Roman Catholicism.
II. Jesuit control of Christian schools and universities.
The Jesuit Underground was successful in infiltrating school
boards, committees and associations for the purpose of gradually
replacing the standards and applications of the
Protestant Bible/King James 1611
with the philosophy of the Spiritual Exercises of the Jesuit
Society. This resulted in the Roman Catholic [supposed] dominance of the
American academic community.
III. Roman Catholic control exercised though Vatican
operatives in the United States military, judiciary and media.
This was accomplished through the instigation of the Civil
War. As Roman Catholic plants in both government and academia pushed
both sides toward armed conflict, the demand for soldiers provided
easy opportunity for the successful infiltration of both the Union
and Confederate armies. Jesuit operatives were able to control the
tactical maneuvers of both sides, thus ensuring minimal loss for
Roman Catholic soldiers. As a result, key positions in both the
judiciary and the press were ripe for penetration by the
Vatican-controlled mercenaries at the end of the war.
IV. Their weakening of the U.S. military, both in strength
and resolve, in preparation for the Vatican-led One World
Government.
The Knights Of Columbus, pledged to bring America under Vatican
rule, continually pressured U.S. Bishops to undermine the nation's
nuclear strategy in the second half of the 20th century.
This precipitated the necessary shift in the paradigm of military
strategists, officers and enlisted personnel from a mentality of
world dominance to one of communal
deference, a vital factor in the coming implementation of Phase V of
Project Vatican.
V. Total control of all
institutions and resources on
Planet Earth, including political, military, economic, educational,
religious and environmental systems, for the purpose of ensuring
global peace, prosperity and order.
Phase I through Phase IV have taken 523 years to complete, and
at the dawn of the third millennium Project Vatican is poised to
launch Phase V. This will necessitate cooperation of the citizens of
every nation on the planet, on a massive scale and in previously
untested numbers.
The five-fold means by which this restoration is being
accomplished are found in Introduction to Project Vatican. The
execution of the first strategy listed below was begun almost 150
years ago, with each following strategy characterized by
progressively later geneses; the last strategy began to be realized
at the close of the 20th century.
1) Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary through the perpetuation of visions,
miracles and revelations.
This was begun in 1854 with the private revelation of
Sophie Prouvier on the devotion to the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus,
the same year of the proclamation of the doctrine of the Immaculate
Conception of Mary; the latter was reinforced in Lourdes, France in
1858 when Our Lady appeared to Bernadette Soubirous, and the former
in 1868, when Pius IX indulgenced an invocation to the Eucharistic
Heart. Since then, an unceasing procession of miracles and
revelations (the most notable being the 1917 Miracle of the Sun at
Fatima, the promulgation in 1925 of the Reign of Christ the King,
the approval of the Divine Mercy Devotion in 1978 and the messages
and miracles from Our Lady of Medjugorje from 1981 to the present)
has kept the eye of Christendom fixed upon Rome and her guiding
signal fire, the Vatican.
2) Dilution of the eschatological models of Biblical
prophesy by means of the aforementioned extra-biblical revelations.
The last bastion of
Judaism &
Protestantism [those who believe in the Torah/Judah/Judeans Southern Kingdom and the
Bible/Ephraim/Christianity Northern Kingdom], will fall once the masses of uneducated
Christian fundamentalists are no longer able to defend and promote
their "last days" interpretations of the prophetic books of the
Bible, due to the continuing modern-day revelations and miracles
associated with the Church of Rome. With the removal of the
so-called "papal threat" from the pulpits of Reformation
congregations, the ecumenical movement implemented by Pope Paul VI
at the Second Vatican Council will be able to proceed unfettered by
hermeneutical separatism.
3) Their alignment of the homosexual agenda with religious
and racial equality, guaranteeing a support base sufficient in
number to legislate Biblical Christian fundamentalism into the
category of "hate speech".
Once this is accomplished, the
Vatican will be free to
overtly implement the Roman Catholic Ecumenical Assemblies (RCEA)
as
the only legally recognized religious assembly. This will pave the
way for the arrest, incarceration and re-education of all clergy, as
well as their
family members, who are not in registered communion with the RCEA.
The Protestants' lack of a governing authority has resulted in a
sheep-like obedience to civil governments. Such social compliance,
coupled with capitalistic greed has made Christian fundamentalists,
for the most part, extremely vulnerable to social engineering.
Churches that once preached racial segregation now advertise their
multicultural diversity as an asset, and that paradigm shift has
laid the groundwork for the acceptance of gays and lesbians into the
evangelical Christian communities. Such passive desire for public
legitimacy will further the cause of the RCEA, which, in its eighth
year, has surreptitiously signed concordants
with 91% of the world's organized denominations. The
international interdictment against all non-RCEA religious
organizations is slated for June 2001.
4) International monopolistic control of all financial
institutions and transactions.
This began January 1, 1993 with the creation of the
European Roman Empire (ERE). VISA Corporation is poised to label
every citizen, upon request from the ERE, with identifying barcode
technology. The current backlash against the paranoia of the
religious right-wing in the United States and Canada has ensured a
very liberal, relaxed attitude toward this imminent accounting
system. Slated for the year 2001, this will enable the World Trade
Organization (WTO) to require all governments operating under WTO
agreements to join the ERE system in identifying all citizens and
monetary transactions. Full global cooperation is expected, as it is
anticipated that those governments refusing to cooperate with the
WTO will, in effect, "comply by attrition".
Since the fall of the Roman Empire, there has
been the dream of a unified Europe. We are seeing a brand new Roman
Empire reconstructed. The European Community has utilized an
identification mark in cooperation with VISA
Corporation. VI is 6
in Roman numerals, S was 6
in ancient Egypt and A was 6 in Sanskrit; a "hide in plain sight"
strategy has resulted in the choice by VISA Corporation and the ERE
of the number 666 in the implementation of this citizen accounting
system.
Wherever possible, purchase all goods and
services with your VISA card. Refuse to transact with merchants and
vendors who do not accept VISA. Contact your Senators and
Representatives and encourage them to support the policies of the
WTO. Contribute generously to those in Congress whose voting records
reflect the agenda of the WTO. "Publicly
dismiss anyone who uses terms and buzzwords relating to 666, the
mark of the beast, the Antichrist, the rapture, the tribulation or
Armageddon as disseminators of paranoid militant theocentrism.
Report all Theo centrists to your RCEA representative"
5) Their Global Eucharistic Community.
With the rampant materialism, environmental
destruction and military instability of the capitalist systems fully
extinguished by them through the controls they set in place by their new global
economy, the Vatican-backed RCEA will be in position to compel
international compliance to Eucharistic adoration and communion,
ushering in the peace and prosperity inherent in
the Kingship of Jesus Christ. The Global Eucharistic Community (GEC)
was formally invoked by the Vatican on December 31, 1999, which will
preside over the WTO, the GEC and the RCEA.

6) Luxor is the original seat of The Servants of Pharaoh's Mystery Babylon:
Pius VII
had resolved to restore the
Society
during his
captivity in
France; and
after his return to
Rome he did
so with little delay; 7 August, 1814, by the
Bull "Solicitudo
omnium ecclesiarum," and therewith, the general in
Russia,
Thaddeus
Brzozowski, acquired
universal
jurisdiction.
After the permission to continue given by
Pius VI,
the first
Russian congregation had
elected as
vicar-general
Stanislaus Czerniewicz (17 Oct., 1782-7 July 1785), who was
succeeded by
Gabriel
Lenkiewicz (27 Sept., 1785-10 Nov., 1798) and
Francis
Kareu (1 Feb., 1799-20 July, 1902). On the receipt of the
Brief "Catholicae
Fidei", of 7 March, 1801, his title was changed from
vicar-general
to general.
Gabriel Gruber succeeded (10
Oct., 1802-26 March 1805) and was followed by
Thaddeus
Brzozowski (2 Sept., 1805).
Almost simultaneously with the death of the latter, 5 Feb., 1820,
the
Russians, who had banished the
Jesuits
from
St. Petersburg in 1815, expelled
them from the whole country. It seems a remarkable
providence that
Russia,
contrary to all precedent, should have protected the
Jesuits
just at the time when all other
nations turned against them, and reverted to her normal hostility
when the
Jesuits began to find
toleration elsewhere. Upon the
decease of
Brzozowski, Father Petrucci, the
vicar, fell under the influence
of the still-powerful
anti-Jesuit party to
Rome, and
proposed to alter some points in the
Institute. The twentieth general
congregation took a severe view of his proposals, expelled him from
the order, and
elected Father
Aloysius
Fortis (18 Oct, 1820-27 Jan,
1829) (q.v.);
John Roothaan succeeded (9 July 1829-8 May 1853) and was
followed by
Peter Beckx (2 July, 1853-4 March, 1887).
Anton Maria
Anderledy,
vicar-general on 11 May, 1884, became general on
Beckx's
death, and died on 18 Jan., 1892;
Louis
Martin (2 Oct, 1892-18 April,
1906). Father
Martin commenced a new series of
histories of the
Society, to
be based on the increasing materials now available, and to deal with
many problems about which older
annalists,
Orlandi and his
successors, were not curious.
Volumes by
Astrain, Duhr, Fouqueray,
Hughes, Kroess, Tacchi-venturi
have appeared. The present general,
Francis Xavier Wernz, was
elected on 8 Sept., 1906. Though
the Jesuits
of the nineteenth century cannot show a martry-roll as brilliant as
that of their predecessors, the
persecuting
laws passed
against them surpass in number, extent, and continuance those
endured by previous generations. The practical exclusion from
university
teaching, the
obligation of military service in many countries, the wholesale
confiscations of
religious
property,
and the dispersion of twelve of its eldest and once most flourishing
provinces are very serious hindrances to
religious
vocations. On a teaching order such blows fall very heavily. The
cause of trouble has generally
been due to that propaganda of
irreligion which was developed
during the
Revolution and is still active through
Freemasonry
in those lands in which the
Revolution
took root.
France
This is plainly seen in
France. In
that country, the
Society
began in 1815 with the direction of some petits séminaries
and
congregations, and by giving
missions. They were attacked by the
liberals, especially by the
Comte de Montlosier in 1823, and their
schools,
one of which St-Achuel, already contained 800 students, were closed
in 1829. The
Revolution of July (1830)
brought them no relief; but in the
visitation of cholera in 1832
the
Fathers pressed to the fore, and
so began to recover influence. In 1845, there was another attack by
Thiers,
which drew out the answer of
de Ravignan.
The revolution of 1848 at first sent them again into exile, but the
liberal measures which
succeeded, especially the freedom of teaching, enabled them to
return and to open many
schools
(1850). In the later days of the
Empire, greater difficulties
were raised, but with the
advent of the Third
Republic (1870), these
restrictions were removed and progress continued, until, after
threatening measures in 1878, came the
decree of
29 March, 1880, issued by M. Jules Ferry. This brought about a new
dispersion and a substitution of staffs of non-religious teachers in
the Jesuit
colleges.
But the
French government did not press
their enactments, and the
Fathers returned by degrees; and
before the end of the century, their houses and
schools in
France were
as prosperous as ever. Then came the overwhelming
Associations
laws of M.
Waldeck-Rousseau, leading to
renewed by not complete
dispersions and to the
re-introduction of non-religious staffs in the
colleges. The
right of the order to hold
property
was also
violently suppressed; and, by a refinement of cruelty, any
property
suspected of being held by a congregation may now be confiscated,
unless it is
proved not to be so held. Other clauses of this
law
penalize any meetings of the
members of a congregation. The order is under an iron hand from
which no escape is, humanly speaking, possible. For the moment
nevertheless public opinion disapproves of its rigid
execution, and
thusfar in spite of all
sufferings, of the dispersal of all houses, the confiscation of
churches and the loss of
practically all
property and
schools,
the numbers of the order have been maintained, nay slightly
increased, and so too have the opportunities for work, especially in
literature and
theology,
etc. (See also
CARAYON;
DESCHAMPS;
DU LAC;
OLIVANT;
RAVIGNAN.)
Spain
In
Spain the course of events has been similar. Recalled by
Ferdinand VII in 1815, the
Society was
attacked by the
Revolution of 1820; and
twenty-five
Jesuits were
slain at
Madrid in
1822. The
Fathers, however, returned after
1823 and took part in the management of the military
school and
the College of Nobles at
Madrid
(1827). But in 1834 they were again attacked at
Madrid,
fourteen were
killed and the whole order was
banished on 4 July, 1835, by a
Liberal ministry. After 1848
they began to return and were
resettled after the
Concordat, 26 Nov., 1852. At the
Revolution of 1868 they were
again banished (12 Oct.), but after a few years they were allowed to
come back and have since made great progress. At the present time,
however, another expulsion is threatened (1912). In
Portugal,
the Jesuits
were recalled in 1829, dispersed again in 1834; but afterwards
returned. Though they were not formally
sanctioned by
law, they had a large
college and several
churches, from which, however,
they were driven out in October, 1910, with great
violence
and cruelty.
Italy
In
Italy they were expelled from
Naples
(1820-21) but in 1836 there were admitted to
Lombardy.
Driven out by the
Revolution of 1848 from almost
the whole peninsula, they were able to return when peace was
restored, except to
Turin. Then
with the
gradual growth of
United
Italy they
were step by step suppressed again by
law everywhere, and finally at
Rome in
1871. But though formally suppressed and unable to keep
schools,
except on a very small scale, the
law is so
worded that it does not press at every point, nor is it often
enforced with acrimony.
Numbers do not fall off, and
activities increase. In
Rome, they
have charge, inter alia, of the
Gregorian University, the "Institutum
Biblicum", and the
German and
Latin-American
colleges.
Germanic provinces
Of the Germanic
Provinces, that of
Austria may
be said to have been recommenced by the
immigration of many
Polish
Fathers from
Russia to
Galicia in 1820 and
colleges were founded at
Tarnopol,
Lemberg,
Linz (1837), and
Innsbruck
in 1838, in which they were assigned the
theological
faculty in 1856. The
German
province properly so called
could at first make foundations only in
Switzerland
at Brieg (1814) and
Freiburg (1818). But after the
Sonderbund, they were
obliged to
leave, then being 264 in number (111
priests). They were now able to
open several houses in the Rhine provinces, etc., making steady
progress until they were ejected during Bismark's
Kulturkampf
(1872), when they numbered 755 members (351
priests). They now count 1150
(with 574
priests) and are
known throughout the world by
their excellent publications. (See
ANTONIEWICZ;
DEHARBE;
HASSLACHER;
PESCH;
ROH;
SPILLMAN.)
Belgium
The
Belgian
Jesuits were unable to return to their country till
Belgium was
separated from
Holland in 1830. Since
then they have prospered exceedingly. In
1832, when they became a separate province, they numbered 105; at
their 75 years'
jubilee in 1907, they numbered
1168. In 1832, two
colleges with 167 students; in
1907, 15
colleges with 7564 students.
Congregations of the
Blessed Virgin, originally
founded by a
Belgian
Jesuit, still flourish. In
Belgium,
2529 such
congregations have been
aggregated to the Prima Primaria at
Rome, and
of these 156 are under
Jesuit
direction. To say nothing of missions and of
retreats to
convents,
diocese, etc., the
province had six houses of
retreats, in which 245
retreats were given to 9840
persons.
Belgium
supplies the foreign missions of
Eastern Bengal and the
diocese of
Galle in
Ceylon. In
the bush country of
Chota
Nagpur, there began, in 1887, a
wonderful movement of
aborigines (Kôles and
Ouraons) toward the
Church, and
the
Catholics
in 1907 numbered 137,120 (i.e. 62,385
baptized
and 74,735
catechumens). Over 35,000
conversions had been made in
1906, owing to the penetration of
Christianity
into the district of Jashpur. Besides this there are excellent
colleges at Darjeeling and at
Kurseong; at Candy in
Ceylon the
Jesuits
have charge of the great
pontifical
seminary
for
educating
native
clergy
for the whole of
India. In
all they have 442
churches,
chapels, or
stations, 479
schools,
14,467 scholars, with about 167,000
Catholics
and 262
Jesuits,
of whom 150 are
priests. The
Belgian
Fathers have also a flourishing
mission in the
Congo, in the districts of
Kwango and
Stanley
Pool, which was begun in 1893;
in 1907, the
converts already numbered
31,402.
England
Nowhere did the
Jesuits get
through the troubles inevitable to the interim more easily than in
conservative
England. The
college at
Liège
continued to train their students in the old
tradition, while the
English
bishop
permitted the ex-Jesuits to maintain their missions and a sort of
corporate
discipline. But there were
difficulties in recognizing the restored order, lest this should
impede
Emancipation (see
Roman
Catholic
Relief Bill), which remained in
doubt for
so many years. Eventually
Leo XII, on
1 Jan., 1829, declared the
Bull of
restoration to have force in
England.
After this the
Society grew, slowly at first, but more rapidly afterwards. It
had 73 members in 1815, 729 in 1910. The principal
colleges are
Stonyhurst (St.
Omers, 1592,
migrated to
Bruges,
1762, to Liège,
1773, to
Stonyhurst, 1794);
Mount St. Mary's (1842);
Liverpool (1842);
Beaumont (1861);
Glasgow (1870);
Wimbledon,
London
(1887);
Stanford Hill,
London
(1894);
Leeds (1905). The 1910, the
province had in
England and
Scotland,
besides the usual
novitiate
and houses of study, two houses for
retreats, 50
churches or
chapels,
attended by 148
priests. The
congregations amounted to
97,641;
baptisms, 3746;
confessions 844,079;
Easter
confessions, 81,065;
Communions, 1,303,591;
converts, 725; extreme
unctions, 1698;
marriages,
782; children in elementary
schools,
18,328. The
Guiana mission (19
priests) has charge of about
45,000 souls;
the
Zambesi mission (35
priests), 4679
souls. (See
also the articles
MORRIS;
PORTER;
STEVENSON;
COLERIDGE;
HARPER.)
Ireland
There were 24 ex-Jesuits in
Ireland in
1776, but by 1803, only two. Of these, Father O'Callahan renewed his
vows at
Stonyhurst
in 1803, and he and Father
Betagh, who was eventually the
last survivor, succeeded in finding some excellent
postulants
who made their
novitiate in
Stonyhurst, their studies at
Palermo,
and returned between 1812 and 1814, Father
Betagh, who had become
vicar-general
of Dublin,
having survived to the year 1811. Father
Peter
Kenney (d. 1841) was the first
superior of the new mission, a man of remarkable eloquence, who when
visitor of the
Society in
America (1830-1833) preached by
invitation before Congress. From 1812-1813, he was vice-president of
Maynooth
College under
Dr. Murray,
the co-adjutor
bishop of
Dublin. The College of
Clonowes
Wood was begun in 1813;
Tullabeg in 1818 (now a house of
both probations);
Dublin (1841); Mungret
(Apostolic School, 1883). In 1883, too, the
Irish
bishops
trusted to the
Society the
University
College,
Dublin, in
connection with the late Royal University of
Ireland.
The marked superiority of this
college to the
richly endowed
Queen's Colleges of Belfast,
Cork, and
Galway
contributed much to establish the claim of the
Irish
Catholics
to adequate
university
education. When this claim had been met by the present National
University, the
University
College was returned to the
Bishops. Five
Fathers now hold teaching posts
in the new
university, and a hotel for students is being provided. Under
the
Act of
Catholic
Emancipation (q.v.) 58
Jesuits
were registered in
Ireland in
1830. In 1910 there were 367 in the province, of whom 100 are in
Australia,
where they have four
colleges at and near
Melbourne and
Sydney, and missions in South
Australia.
United States of America
Under the direction of
Bishop Carroll the members of
the
Corporation of
Roman
Catholic
Clergymen
in Maryland
were the chief factors in founding and maintaining
Georgetown
College from 1791 to 1805, when they resumed their
relations with the
Society
still
existing in
Russia, and
were so strongly reinforced by other members of the order from
Europe that
they could
assume full charge of the
institution, which they have since retained. On the Restoration of
the Society
in 1814 these nineteen fathers constituted the mission of the
United States.
For a time (1808 to 1817) some of them were employed in the
Diocese of New York
just erected, Father
Anthony
Kohlmann administering the
diocese temporarily, others
engaging in
school and
parish work. In 1816, Gonzaga College,
Washington, D. C., was founded.
In 1833, the mission of the
United States
became a
province under the title of
Maryland.
Since then the
history of the
province is a record of
development proportionate with the growth in
Catholicity
in the various fields specially cultivated by the
Society.
The
colleges of the
Holy Cross,
Worcester
(founded in 1843),
Loyola
College,
Baltimore (1852),
Boston
College (1863) have
educated
great numbers of young men for the
ministry and
liberal professions. Up to 1879,
members of the
Society had been labouring in
New York as part of the New
York-Canada mission. In that
year, they became affiliated with the first
American
province under the title
Maryland-New
York. This was added to the old
province besides several
residences and
parishes, the
colleges of
St. Frances Xavier and
St. John (now
Fordham
University),
New York City,
and
St. Peter's
College,
Jersey
City,
New Jersey.
St. Joseph's College,
Philadelphia, was chartered in
1852, and the
Brooklyn
College opened in 1908. In the
same year, Canisius College, and two
parishes in
Buffalo,
and one parish
in Boston
for
German
Catholics,
with 88 members of the
German
province were affiliated with
this province, which has now (1912) 863 members with 12
colleges and 13
parishes, 1
house of higher study for the members of the
Society, 1
novitiate
in the New England and Middle States, and in the
Virginias, with the
Mission of
Jamaica,
British West Indies.
The
Missouri
province began as a mission from
Maryland in
1823. Father
Charles van Quickenborn, a
Belgian,
led several young men of his own nationality who were eager to work
among the
Indians, among them
De Smet,
Van
Assche, and
Verhaegen. As a rule, the tribes
were too nomadic to evangelize, and the
Indian
schools
attracted only a very small number of pupils. The missions among the
Osage and
Pottawatomie were more permanent
and fruitful. It was with experience gathered in these fields that
Father De Smet
started his mission in the Rocky Mountains in 1840. A
college, now
St. Louis University, was opened
in 1829. For ten years, 1838-48, a
college was
maintained at Grand
Coteau,
Louisiana; in 1840,
St. Xavier's was opened at
Cincinnati.
With the aid of seventy-eight
Jesuits,
who came over from
Italy and
Switzerland
in the years of revolution, 1838-48, two
colleges were maintained,
St. Joseph's, Bardstown, 1848
until 1861, another at
Louisville,
Kentucky,
1849-57. In this last year, a
college was
opened at
Chicago. The mission became a
province in 1863; since then,
colleges have been opened at
Detroit,
Omaha,
Milwaukee,
St. Mary's (Kansas). By
accession of part of the
Buffalo mission when it was
separated from the
German
province in 1907, the
Missouri
province acquired an additional
180 members, and
colleges at
Cleveland,
Toledo, and
Prarie du Chein, besides several
residences and missions. Its members work in the Territory west of
the Alleghenies as far as
Kansas and
Omaha, and from the lakes to the
northern line of
Tennessee
and
Oklahoma, and also in the
Mission of
British Honduras.
New Orleans
For five years, 1566-1571, members of the
Peruvian
province laboured among the
Indians along the east coast of
Florida,
where Father Martines was massacred near
St. Augustine in 1566. They
penetrated into
Virginia, where eight of their number were massacred by
Indians at a station named Axaca,
supposed to be on the Rappahannock River. Later,
Jesuits
from Canada,
taking as their share of the
Louisian territory the
Illinois country and afterwards
from the Ohio River to the gulf east of the Mississippi, worked
among the
Chocktaw, Chickasaw,
Natchez,
Yazoo. Two
of their number were
murdered by
the
Natchez, and one by the
Chickasaw. Their expulsion in 1763 is the subject of a monograph by
Carayon,
"Documents inédits", XIV. Originally
evangelized by
Jesuits
from the
Lyons province, the
New Orleans
mission became a
province in 1907, having seven
colleges and four residences. It
has now 255 members working in the territory north of the Gulf of
Mexico to
Missouri, and as far east as
Virginia.
California
In 1907, A
province was formed in
California,
comprising the missions of
California,
the Rocky Mountains, and
Alaska (United States). The
history of these missions is
narrated under
California
Missions;
Missions,
Catholic
Indian, of the
United States;
Alaska;
Idaho;
Sioux Indians.
New Mexico
In the mission of
New Mexico
ninety-three
Jesuits are occupied in the
college at
Denver,
Colorado, and in various missions in that state,
Arizona,
and New Mexico;
the mission depends on the
Italian
province of
Naples. In
all the provinces of the
United States
there are 6 professional
schools
with 4363 students; 26
colleges with full courses, with
2417, and 34 preparatory and high schools with 8735 pupils.
Canada
Jesuits
returned to
Canada from
St. Mary's College,
Kentucky,
which had been taken over, in 1834, by members of the
province of
France.
When
St. Mary's was given up in 1846,
the
staff came to take charge of
St. John's
College,
Fordham,
New York, thus forming with
their fellows in
Montreal
the New
York-Canada mission. This
mission lasted till 1879, the
Canadian
division having by that year 1
college, 2 residences, 1
novitiate,
3 Indian
missions, and 131 members. In 1888 the mission received $160,000
as its part of the sum paid by the
Province of
Quebec in
compensation for the
Jesuit
estates appropriated under George III by imperial authority, and
transferred to the
authorities of the former
Province of
Canada, all
parties thus agreeing that the full amount, $400,000, thus allowed
was far short of the value of the estates, estimated at $2,000,000.
The settlement was ratified by the
pope, and
the legislature of the
Province of
Quebec, and the balance was divided among the
archdiocese of
Quebec,
Montreal,
and other
diocese, the
Laval
University besides receiving, in
Montreal,
$40,000 and in
Quebec, $100,000.
In 1907 the mission was constituted a
province. It now has two
colleges in
Montreal,
one at
St. Boniface with 263 students
in the
collegiate and 722 in the
preparatory classes, 2 residences and
churches in
Quebec, one at
Guelph,
Indian missions,
and missions in
Alaska, and 309 members.
Mexico
In
Mexico (New
Spain)
Jesuit
missionaries began their work in
1571, and prior to their expulsion, in 1767, they numbered 678
members of whom 468 were
natives. They had over 40
colleges or
seminaries,
5 residences, and 6
missionary districts, with 99
missions. The mission included
Cuba, lower
California,
and as far south as
Nicaragua. Three members of the
suppressed
Society who were in
Mexico at the time of the
Restoration formed a nucleus for its re-establishment there in 1816.
In 1820, there were 32, of whom 15 were
priests and
3
scholastics, in care of 4
colleges and 3
seminaries.
They were dispersed in 1821. Although invited back in 1843, they
could not agree to the limitations put on their activities by
General Santa
Anna, nor was the prospect
favourable in the revolutionary
condition of the country. Four
of their number returning in 1854, the mission prospered, and in
spite of two
dispersions, 1859 and 1873, it
has continued to increase in number and activity. In August, 1907,
it was reconstituted a province, It has now 326 members with four
colleges, 12 residences, 6
mission
stations among the
Tarahumara, and a
novitiate
(see also
Mexico;
Pious Fund of the Californias).
