Parish, I found that much of the efforts made within St. Patrick’s related to St. Francis’s story when he responded to the call to restore the church of San Damiano. As St. Francis worked on the church, he was able to attract followers and form a Franciscan community. I found St. Partick’s Church to follow a similar philosophy in several instances.

Suppose you were shown an illustration that depicted a man wearing a dark blue button-up shirt with a pair of matching slacks, a bullet proof vest, a gold government-issued badge, a utility belt, and a walkie-talkie. If someone were to ask you what field of work this person was involved in, you would most likely respond law enforcement. A police officer’s uniform is designed to do just that- allow the public to easily recognize who they are. Unfortunately, a grand majority of today’s society…

military police would kill if the Internees moved. These accounts were just in the immigration centers, and the Internees were not even sent to the camps yet. Lange’s depictions of the transportation to the camps were also false. An account from a San Franciscan minister, Yoshiaki Fukuda, sates that “A gloomy atmosphere prevailed on the train.” His account continues to state the poor conditions on the trains to the camps, saying that guard with rifles were on each side of the train ready to…
