JESSIE EMMA COOK was born in Heart’s Content at the end of 1880 or the beginning of 1881 and was baptised at St Mary’s Church on the 14th of January 1881. At some point during the early 1900s, Jessie married a man by the name of John Carmichael Dunning. Born in Kilbarchan, Renfrewshire in Scotland in 1882 to parents William and Janet (née Carmichael) Dunning, John was a telegraphist like Jessie’s father. Few reasons would have given Jessie reason to leave Heart’s Content, much less…

At what church was the Mass celebrate? The church that the traditional Latin Mass was celebrated at was the Saint Francis de Salles church in South City. What were some of the differences between this Latin Mass and the Mass celebrated in your church (ex. Movements of the priest, decorations, altar set up, type of music, role of the servers, use of the bells) The first, most notable thing is that the priest rarely turns around to the congregation but, only doing so for the first reading and…

There has not been just one priest or sister in my life that has affected me more than another, but many have impacted my life over the years. Since I started school at St. Dominic High School last year, I feel I now have a better understanding of the catholic faith and its real meaning. Before, I went to a mass at St. Dominic, I never fully understood everything in mass or what it meant. I would always just go through the motions and not really understand what I was doing. I have learned…

The Papal Zouaves were the Pope’s army to defend the Pope. The Zouaves evolved out of a unit formed by Christophe Léon Louis Juchault de Lamoricière in 1860. On January 1, 1861 the unit was renamed the Papal Zouaves. He had been introduced by Frédéric-François-Xavier Ghislain de Mérode. “The Zuavi Pontifici were mainly young men, unmarried and Roman Catholic, who volunteered to assist Pope Pius IX in his struggle against the Italian unificationist Risorgimento. They wore a similar style of…

I decided to observe a Roman Catholic Mass service for my fieldwork report. On June 12, 2016 at 9 A.M. I attended the Mass service of the Roman Catholic church at the Mayport Naval Station Chapel in Jacksonville, Florida. I chose to observe this religion because I was interested in observing the differences between the Catholic denomination of Christianity and the denomination of Christianity with which I identify. Attending Mass is the only way in which a devote Catholic can fulfill the…

For my cultural experience I chose to go to a Spanish Catholic church service in Sedalia. I chose this cultural event because I have never been to a Catholic service before. I specifically chose the Spanish service because I was aware of the larger Hispanic population in this area and I thought it was interesting how the churches provide this particular group services in their native tongue. My first thought when I walked into the church was how magnificent the church was. Beautiful pendant…

I observed as well as participated in one of the fundamental traditions in the Catholic Church, Sunday Mass. A key element in the Christian faith is the idea of community. Mass is defined as a religious community gathering together under one roof to receive the grace of God. The aspect of individuality is not as important in Christian religious worship as the central idea of community. The sacrament of the Eucharist as well as the church itself signifies the relationship between the worshippers…

At the beginning of the 16th century, religious, political and social power were vastly controlled by the Roman Catholic Church. Some individuals felt a need to practice the religion a different way. Which eventually led up to England breaking away from traditional Roman Catholicism, known as at the English reformation. The English reformation began with Henry VIII summoning the reformation parliament in 1529. Henry VIII ruled from 1509 until he died in 1547. King Henry grew up as a good…

1. Since Pope Leo X needed money to build the Saint Peter’s Basilica, he collected money by selling indulgences. The Doctrine of Indulgence says that the church would have the authority to grant people merits to give spiritual benefits. Luther would later then attach to the door of the church at Wittenberg Castle the list of the 95 theses on the indulgences. Soon he would publicly challenge the authority of the Pope and the church council and the response was by giving him two months or be…

changes, religious organizations remained central institutions of southern life” (Wilson, C.). Religion was and still is the justification of life. By adopting a belief, someone can add a greater meaning to their life. Anglicanism was the first denomination in the South. Anglicanism proved very weak, it lacked a bishop and carried…
