DIOCESE OF SUPERIOR.
COLLECTION FOR THE HOLY
FATHER.
Bishop's House, Superior, May, 19i4.
Rev. Dear Father:
On Pentecost Sunday, IJay 31, the
annual collection for the Holy Father
will be taken up, in all the churches
of the Diocese of Superior. I have,
this year, selected the above date, for
the reason that I go to the Eternal
City, at the beginning of July, to make
my "ad limina" visit and to submit to
the Holy See the report of the dio
cese, as prescribed by the sacred
canons. I desire, also, on that occa
sion, to present to the Supreme Pon
tiff, the annual offering of the faithful
of our diocese, in the form of Peter's
Pence.
It may be instructive to know that
a grave obligation rests upon every
Bishop throughout the world, charged
with the responsibilities of a diocese,
of making, at stated periods, this "ad
limina" visitation to Rome, which vis
itation consists in kneeling at the
tombs of the Apostles, in paying hom
age to the Vicar of Christ, and in pre
senting to the Holy See a report of
the spiritual and material condition of
the diocese. The origin of this inspir
ing act of Catholic Faith and disci
pline goes- back to early Christian
days, and grew out of the very consti
tution of the Church and out of the
supremacy of the Chair of Peter.
During this year of grace, 1914, the
Bishops of the entire American con
tinent will go to Rome, to kneel, in
prayer, in the basilica of St. Peter,
and to give, with all reverence and
obedience, to his Holiness, Pius the
10th, an account of their stewardship,
and thus America, though separated
from the. center of Christendom by
thousands of miles, will give, by this
most solemn profession of the divine
and supreme authority invested in our
Holy Father, the Bishop of Bishops
and Shepherd of Shepherds, the Head
and Chief Pastor of the Universal
Church, testimony to the whole world
of Catholic Unity.
There is an opportunity and a duty,
therefore, this year, of manifesting ex
ceptional generosity to the Vicar of
Christ. In consequence, I make a
strong appeal to the faithful to double,
at least, the usual annual offering of
the Peter's Pence. The Holy See,
which has been forced by the enemies
of God's Church, to sacrifice its just
and legitimate revenue, has no ample
sources of income but must rely and
depend, in a great measure, upon the
generosity of its devoted and loyal
children throughout the world.
I am confident that if these facts be
vividly and strongly impressed upon
the minds and hearts of us all, both
priests and people, the results of the
collections will be such as the Dio
cese of Superior need not be ashamed
of, nor unworthy of the good and just
end for which they are intended. The
singular devotion and steadfast loyal
ty of our people to the present Holy
Father should be guarantee sufficient
for a royal donation, this year, from
each and every parish. There can
hardly be a soul, man, woman or
child, in our diocese, who does not
thank .God, for having, in His Divine
Providence, placed at the head of His
Church, the present Pope, Pius X. To
restore all things to Christ is his
message to the world, and to cite but
one instance of the execution of this
high and noble aim, consider the ever
increasing and multiplied numbers of
Holy Communions of adults and ino
cent children. How consoling! how
edifying! to see Sunday after Sunday,
yes, even day after day, people of all
conditions approaching the Holy
Table. Let us then, dearly beloved
priests and people, in the spirit of
gratitude and appreciation come to
the aid of our Holy Father in his
needs. The administration of the
Universal Church, both in the spiritual
and material order, is simply gigantic
and therefore also needs gigantic sup
port and this support we faithful here,
in the Superior Diocese are in pro
portion called upon to give. There
fore, my dear Reverend Father and
my dear faithful people, let me repeat
my earnest request: Be loyal and
steadfast to your Holy Mother, the
Church, and show your fealty and
love by a generous offering.
Oh! great God! There was a time
when mighty armies were formed, in
all parts of Europe, fathers, husbands,

ameliorate matters as we would wish,
let us at least sympathize with him
and express this sympathy not merely
with words but also in substantial
deeds.
When, in filial homage, I shall kneel
at the feet of our Holy Father, I will,
my dear clergy, speak to him of your
labors, hardships and zeal. I will
speak to him, my dear members of
Religious Communities, of your great
and grand work. I will speak to him,
my beloved laity, of your devotion
and sacrifices. I will speak to him
of the filial attachment to the Holy
See of the many different nationalities,
in our diocese I will, finally, speak
to him of the living Faith, that ani
mates our children, the Chippewa In
dians, of their staunch adherence to
the great White Father across the big
waters. How all. this will gladden his
paternal heart. I will ask his Holi
ness to bless mf priests, my religious
and my people. At the tombs of the
Holy Apostles I will pray that the fire
of Divine Faith may burn more and
more Intensely in the minds and hearts
of you all and, in consequence, spread
its light and warmth throughout the
length and breadth of the diocese, by
your words and good example.
Pray also for me, my Reverend dear
Fathers and my good people that the
Archangel Raphael may protect me on
my journey and lead me back into
your midst in good health and safety.
I direct that on Sunday, May 31,
Pentecost Sunday, the collection for
the Peter's Pence be taken up at all
the Masses. During my absence from
the diocese, the Vicar General, Very
Rev. Father Schmit will act as admin
istrator. Receive and obey him Just
as you would receive and obey your
Bishop.
May the grace of God, merited for
us by our Saviour on the cross, and
dispensed by the Holy Spirit be with
oyu, strengthen and console you.
Faithfully yours in Christ,
4- JOSEPH M. KOUDELKA,
Bishop _of Superior.
