Editor: if you compare then vs. now, now loses every single time. Over the past century, a lot has changed. Women are forced to wear tight and revealing clothing, while men, left to their own devices...
[The chronicle on line] Over the past century, both churches have seen a number of changes. Gone are the days of Mass being given in Latin, women being required to wear head coverings and the disappearance of the traditional Habit.
St. Frederic has also been home to several firsts including the first Lay ministers of Communion and Liturgy in 1970 and the opening of the first parochial school in Columbia County in 1928.
And in 1960, John F. Kennedy – the first Catholic president – visited during his presidential campaign. To mark these changes and to recognize the role of the church in the lives of its parishioners, St. Wenceslaus asked members to complete a family story questionnaire. From these a Parish Memory Book will be created and shared with the community.
