Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho~The Homeward Choir
Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho sung by a group of men who are homeless at the time of this contribution to the Palm Sunday 2016 Mass at the Shrine of The Immaculate Conception in Atlanta, Georgia. They were first asked what name they would go by, and the 'Homeless Choir' was suggested to them but was rejected, and chose the 'Homeward Choir'; for as they put it, they did not intend to be homeless all the time. Well done. If you're ever in Atlanta, Georgia be sure to visit the Catholic Shrine of The immaculate Conception, a most historic Church.

SUMMARY
=======
The Catholic Church in the United States is part of the worldwide Catholic Church in communion with the Pope in Rome. With 20.8% of the United States population as of 2018, the Catholic Church is the country's second largest single religious group after Protestantism, but the country's largest religious denomination. The United States has the fourth largest Catholic population in the world after Brazil, Mexico and the Philippines, the largest Catholic minority population, and the largest English-speaking Catholic population. The central leadership body of the Catholic Church in the United States is the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
The Catholic Church's part of the history of the United States has its background in the European colonization of the Americas. The first Catholics arrived with the Spanish missions in the Americas with Christopher Columbus' second voyage to the New World in 1493. In the 16th and 17th centuries, they established missions in what are now Florida, Georgia, New Mexico, Puerto Rico, Texas, and later in California. In addition to the Spanish, the French in the 17th century, via New France, began missionary work in Michigan, New York, Wisconsin. French colonization in the early 18th century saw missions established in Louisiana, St. Louis, New Orleans, Biloxi, Mobile, the Alabamas, Natchez, Yazoo, Natchitoches, Arkansas, Illinois. St. Augustine, Florida, founded in 1565, has the oldest continuous parish in the US. In 1789 the Archdiocese of Baltimore was the first diocese established in the newly formed United States. John Carroll, whose brother Daniel was one of five men to sign both the Articles of Confederation (1778) and the United States Constitution (1787), became the first American bishop. John McCloskey became the first American cardinal in 1875.
The number of Catholics grew from the early 19th century through immigration and the acquisition of the predominantly Catholic former possessions of France, Spain, and Mexico, followed in the mid-19th century by a rapid influx of Irish, German, Italian and Polish immigrants from Europe, making the Catholic Church the largest Christian denomination in the United States. This increase was met by widespread anti-Catholicism in the United States, prejudice and hostility, often resulting in riots and the burning of churches, convents, and seminaries. The Know Nothings, an anti-Catholic nativist movement, was founded in the mid 19th century in an attempt to restrict Catholic immigration, and was later followed by the Order of United American Mechanics, the Ku Klux Klan, the American Protective Association, and the Junior Order of United American Mechanics.
The fuller integration of Catholics into American society was hastened by the election of John F. Kennedy as President in 1960. Since then, the percentage of Americans who are Catholic has fallen slowly from about 25% to 22%, with increases in Hispanics, primarily Mexican Americans, and to a lesser degree, in more than six million former Protestants, who have balanced losses of self-identifying Catholics. In absolute numbers, Catholics have increased from 45 to 72 million. About 10% of the population as of 2010 are former Catholics or non-practicing, almost 30 million people. People have left for a number of reasons, which factors have also affected other denominations: loss of belief, disenchantment, disaffiliation for another religious group or for none, indifference. Other reasons for departure are the Church's teaching on homosexuality, women's role in the Church, abortion and birth control. The Catholic Church sexual abuse cases have had a negative effect as well, if not significant, especially in the northeast. The geographic center of US Catholicism is also shifting southward and westward; although compared with other religious groups, Catholics are fairly evenly dispersed throughout the country.As of 2018 (post- ...

Virgin Mary Apparition Caught on Camera (3 photos)
A photo taken by a parishioner at Our Lady of Perpetual Help shows a illuminating human figure that appears to be the Virgin Mary. This miraculous story was reported by WGN-TV Chicago.
One north suburban Catholic Church is talking about a very thought provoking picture, shot with nothing more than an Iphone.
One woman snapped a photo last Friday in the chapel of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Glenview and says she got so much more.
Maureen Kent has been attending Eucharistic adoration at the church for more than 2 years. Kneeling last Friday, she wanted a picture of the Eucharist or host in the monstrance, the ornate gold stand it’s placed in.
The picture showed a bright light, an image larger than a human and appearing to hover next to the host on the alter. Catholics believe the host is the True Body of Christ.
No photo-shopping, she says, no doctoring the digital image. Just what she calls a great surprise when she looked at her screen.
Her friends in the chapel also believe it is the Virgin Mary. Authentication is not, right now, a consideration by Maureen Kent or even the church. They are relishing what they call a miraculous moment, privileged to have seen and believed, they say.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish is located at 1755 Grove St. in Glenview, IL

The main reason that Jesus shares his Spirit with us is so we can imitate his habitual forgiveness of sin. St. John the Evangelist clarifies this with Jesus’ own words: “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.” For St. John, this means all his followers. Jesus’ instruction is not just for the leaders of the community; all Christians are expected, with the help of the Holy Spirit, to forgive the people around them.
St. Paul also says that everyone receives gifts from the Spirit to be used for the common good. His belief that the Spirit is free to give gifts to whomever the Spirit wishes and this is an echo of Jesus’ own refusal to deny God’s love to anyone, good or bad. Jesus often reminded his followers that God causes rain to fall on both the good and the bad.

Mourning a Martyr: Viola Liuzzo's Funeral
Excerpt from raw television outtakes of the end of the funeral of civil-rights martyr Viola Gregg Liuzzo, Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic church, Detroit, Mich., March 30, 1965.
Mrs. Liuzzo, a Detroit wife, mother and member of the progressive First Unitarian-Universalist church, who had become active in supporting the civil rights of African Americans, was shot to death by members of the white supremacist Ku Klux Klan (KKK), including an undercover informer for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), while driving a black man from Montgomery to Selma, Ala., following the historic voting-rights march to the Alabama capital on March 25, 1965.
Among the 350 mourners were civil-rights, labor and religious leaders from across the country, including the Rev. James E. Wadsworth, Jr. (00:00, 2d from left), pastor, Fellowship Chapel, Detroit; Roy Wilkins (00:00, 3d from left), executive secretary, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP); Walter P. Reuther (00:00, right), president, United Auto Workers (UAW), and his wife, May (00:01, right); James L. Farmer, Jr. (00:02, right), national director, Congress of Racial Equality (CORE); U. S. Rep. Charles C. Diggs, Jr. (D.-Mich.) (00:07, right); John R. Lewis (00:27, right), chairman, Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC); and Dorothy Dewberry (later Aldridge; 00:28, right, bows), coordinator, Detroit Area Friends of SNCC.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., president, Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), and James R. Hoffa, president, International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT), also attended, but do not appear in this excerpt.
The mourners left the service to the strains of We Shall Overcome, the unofficial anthem of the civil-rights movement.

Shalom World: Pro-Life Interview with Father Frank Pavone
Father Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life and Missionaries of the Gospel of Life speaks with International Catholic speaker, Mario St. Francis for Shalom World television about the Pro-Life Movement.
The interview was video-taped at the March for Life 2013 in Washington, D.C., USA.
‘Don't sit out the election under any circumstance:' Leading pro-life priest
September 13, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) — Voting isn’t about feeling good and there is no reason for Catholics to sit out the 2016 election, Father Frank Pavone told LifeSiteNews.
“We might feel like we’re uncomfortable voting for a particular person even if we know it’s the better of the two choices,” said Pavone, the national director of Priests for Life. “Voting is not about what’s good for me. It’s about the common good.”
“A vote is not about liking the person. … A vote is a transfer of power,” he said. “And we transfer the power to best of the viable alternatives.”
Pavone compared voting in the 2016 presidential election with changing a runaway train’s tracks in order to limit its damage.
“At the end of those two tracks, the damage is going to be done,” he said. “But what if you know that less damage is going to be done at the end of track B than at track A? It’s not that you intend any damage; you don’t. But it’s beyond your control. Wouldn’t you switch the train to track B, even if you couldn’t stop it? To lessen the damage, to reduce the harm? Of course you would.”
“People should never think that by not voting at all they escape responsibility for the outcome,” said Pavone, noting that Catholics at the beginning of Mass ask for forgiveness for “what I have done and what I have failed to do.”
