That’s good for sun-seeking tourists, but could spell more disaster for a region that emerged this spring from a yearslong drought and now has firefighters on edge because of parched conditions and no end in sight to the typical fire season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is the new normal,” Gov. Jerry Brown warned Saturday after surveying damage from the deadly Ventura County fire that has caused the most destruction and continued burning out of control. “We’re about ready to have firefighting at Christmas. This is very odd and unusual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even as firefighters made progress containing six major wildfires from Santa Barbara to San Diego County and most evacuees were allowed to return home, predicted gusts of up to 50 mph (80 kph) through Sunday posed a threat of flaring up existing blazes or spreading new ones. High fire risk is expected to last into January and the governor and experts said climate change is making it a year-round threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall, the fires have destroyed nearly 800 homes and other buildings, killed dozens of horses and forced more than 200,000 people to flee flames that have burned over 270 square miles (700 square kilometers) since Monday. One death, so far, a 70-year-old woman who crashed her car on an evacuation route, is attributed to the fire in Santa Paula, a small city next to Ventura where the fire began.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Ventura blaze continued to burn into rugged mountains in the Los Padres National Forest near the little town of Ojai and toward a preserve established for endangered California condors.

On Dec. 1, they began planning for extreme winds forecast in the week ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Pimlott, chief of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, said authorities were prepared for destruction on the level of 2003 and 2007 firestorms in Southern California and possibly those in Northern California that killed 44 people and destroyed nearly 9,000 homes and other buildings in October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Monday, officials had brought in fire crews from the northern part of the state as reinforcements and marshaled engines, bulldozers and aircraft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday they brought in more helicopters from the National Guard and “every last plane we could find in the nation,” said Thom Porter, southern chief of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The military provided C-130 planes for firefighting, said Mark Ghilarducci, director of the California Office of Emergency Services. More than 290 fire engines came from Montana, Utah, New Mexico, Idaho, Arizona, Oregon and Nevada.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when flames met ferocious winds, crews were largely powerless to stop them. Even fire-attacking aircraft were helpless while being grounded at times because of night, high winds or smoke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As fires burned in Ventura and Los Angeles counties, firefighters from other states were already in place north of San Diego on Thursday when a major fire erupted and rapidly spread in the Fallbrook area, known for its avocado groves and horse stables in the rolling hills.[contextly_sidebar id=”T4s3HHAa7phiYi4jOuXWTAN5KVF3GCD7″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had many resources in the area very quickly on this incident, but unfortunately within several minutes the fire had gotten out of control and well-established, and necessitated massive evacuations,” said Steve Abbott, chief of the North County Fire Protection District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire swept through the San Luis Rey Training Facility, where it killed more than 40 elite thoroughbreds and destroyed more than 100 homes — most of them in the Rancho Monserate Country Club retirement community. Three people were burned trying to escape the fire that continued to smolder Saturday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of this week’s fires were in places that burned in the past, including one in the ritzy Los Angeles neighborhood of Bel-Air that burned six homes and another in the city’s rugged foothills above the community of Sylmar and in Santa Paula.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire in Fallbrook was no exception. Ten years ago, during a deadly spate of Santa Ana wind-driven infernos, flames wiped out most of the more than 200 homes in the Valley Oaks Mobile Home Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Memories of that blaze were fresh as flames approached Thursday and sheriff’s deputies told residents to leave immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time he got the order to go, Mateo Gonzalez had already helped his brother move out of his nearby place and packed all of his important belongings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 2007 firestorm, Gonzalez had almost no warning before his house was destroyed, only four months after moving in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We weren’t prepared the first time around. This time we were,” he said Saturday, the day after he returned to his undamaged home.\u003c/p>\n\n",

That’s good for sun-seeking tourists, but could spell more disaster for a region that emerged this spring from a yearslong drought and now has firefighters on edge because of parched conditions and no end in sight to the typical fire season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is the new normal,” Gov. Jerry Brown warned Saturday after surveying damage from the deadly Ventura County fire that has caused the most destruction and continued burning out of control. “We’re about ready to have firefighting at Christmas. This is very odd and unusual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even as firefighters made progress containing six major wildfires from Santa Barbara to San Diego County and most evacuees were allowed to return home, predicted gusts of up to 50 mph (80 kph) through Sunday posed a threat of flaring up existing blazes or spreading new ones. High fire risk is expected to last into January and the governor and experts said climate change is making it a year-round threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall, the fires have destroyed nearly 800 homes and other buildings, killed dozens of horses and forced more than 200,000 people to flee flames that have burned over 270 square miles (700 square kilometers) since Monday. One death, so far, a 70-year-old woman who crashed her car on an evacuation route, is attributed to the fire in Santa Paula, a small city next to Ventura where the fire began.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On Dec. 1, they began planning for extreme winds forecast in the week ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Pimlott, chief of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, said authorities were prepared for destruction on the level of 2003 and 2007 firestorms in Southern California and possibly those in Northern California that killed 44 people and destroyed nearly 9,000 homes and other buildings in October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Monday, officials had brought in fire crews from the northern part of the state as reinforcements and marshaled engines, bulldozers and aircraft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday they brought in more helicopters from the National Guard and “every last plane we could find in the nation,” said Thom Porter, southern chief of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The military provided C-130 planes for firefighting, said Mark Ghilarducci, director of the California Office of Emergency Services. More than 290 fire engines came from Montana, Utah, New Mexico, Idaho, Arizona, Oregon and Nevada.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when flames met ferocious winds, crews were largely powerless to stop them. Even fire-attacking aircraft were helpless while being grounded at times because of night, high winds or smoke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As fires burned in Ventura and Los Angeles counties, firefighters from other states were already in place north of San Diego on Thursday when a major fire erupted and rapidly spread in the Fallbrook area, known for its avocado groves and horse stables in the rolling hills.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had many resources in the area very quickly on this incident, but unfortunately within several minutes the fire had gotten out of control and well-established, and necessitated massive evacuations,” said Steve Abbott, chief of the North County Fire Protection District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire swept through the San Luis Rey Training Facility, where it killed more than 40 elite thoroughbreds and destroyed more than 100 homes — most of them in the Rancho Monserate Country Club retirement community. Three people were burned trying to escape the fire that continued to smolder Saturday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of this week’s fires were in places that burned in the past, including one in the ritzy Los Angeles neighborhood of Bel-Air that burned six homes and another in the city’s rugged foothills above the community of Sylmar and in Santa Paula.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire in Fallbrook was no exception. Ten years ago, during a deadly spate of Santa Ana wind-driven infernos, flames wiped out most of the more than 200 homes in the Valley Oaks Mobile Home Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Memories of that blaze were fresh as flames approached Thursday and sheriff’s deputies told residents to leave immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time he got the order to go, Mateo Gonzalez had already helped his brother move out of his nearby place and packed all of his important belongings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 2007 firestorm, Gonzalez had almost no warning before his house was destroyed, only four months after moving in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We weren’t prepared the first time around. This time we were,” he said Saturday, the day after he returned to his undamaged home.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I sat down with him in his office to talk about his time at Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>After 28 years of leading Cal’s bands, what’s your favorite memory?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’d have to say, with the marching band, performing at the Great Wall of China in 2016.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seuwsrF3hzI\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>I’ve heard that you grew up in Berkeley. So you essentially bleed blue and gold, don’t you?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, a lot of students say, ‘Bob, the first three letters of your last name kind of say it all.’ C-A-L, so there it is. My dad did grad school here, and my mom was an undergrad. That’s where they met. Back in the day, they would tell us, ‘You can apply anywhere you want, but you’re going to Cal.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Can you tell me a little bit about your first time playing with the Cal band?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My brother was a sophomore here at the time. It was my first year, in 1972. There’s an explosion that goes off at pregame, and my brother didn’t say a word about it. And I marched right over that spot right before the bomb went off, and I must have jumped 6 feet in the air. He never told me until it actually happened. I found him on the sideline and go, ‘You didn’t tell me!’ He goes, ‘Well, of course I didn’t!’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Can you tell me a little bit about your experience with students here at Berkeley?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are incredible on every level -- just as people, and then as musicians and students. They’re just a joy to be around. With the marching band, it’s student leadership. There are five students who run the band and every aspect of it. And I’m maybe institutional memory -- a guider, if you will, a mentor at times. They chart the course of the band.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>I was a student at Berkeley not too long ago. I’ve seen firsthand the sense of community in Cal’s band. When you watch them perform, you see that they love every second of it. Can you tell me about the culture and how it’s evolved over the years?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is one of the things I talk to potential students about. Find your community, whatever it is. If it’s gonna be working on the newspaper, or if it’s gonna be a fraternity or sorority -- whatever it is, it makes a place like this a lot smaller. It’s just so strange that I’ve been here all these years, and I can walk across campus, and there isn’t one time where I’ve not seen a student that I teach -- either in the band or in the wind ensemble or something. It’s just uncanny. It does make a community within a very large one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>You’ve been all over the world with these bands. Is there one specific instance you can point to as the moment you were most proud to be director of Cal’s bands?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being asked to be in Super Bowl 50. During a recording session with Will Champion, the drummer of Coldplay, he was as kind as can be to my students. And I mean that whole experience. And there was also a memorandum -- we had to not tell anyone that we were selected. So this all occurred in late December, and the performance wasn’t until the second week of February. So for six weeks, my students didn’t say a word. And they were warned: ‘If you do, they may pull you from the show,’ so I think the whole picture -- that whole Super Bowl experience in 2016 -- is probably way up there.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

My dad did grad school here, and my mom was an undergrad. That’s where they met. Back in the day, they would tell us, ‘You can apply anywhere you want, but you’re going to Cal.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Can you tell me a little bit about your first time playing with the Cal band?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My brother was a sophomore here at the time. It was my first year, in 1972. There’s an explosion that goes off at pregame, and my brother didn’t say a word about it. And I marched right over that spot right before the bomb went off, and I must have jumped 6 feet in the air. He never told me until it actually happened. I found him on the sideline and go, ‘You didn’t tell me!’ He goes, ‘Well, of course I didn’t!’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Can you tell me a little bit about your experience with students here at Berkeley?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are incredible on every level -- just as people, and then as musicians and students. They’re just a joy to be around. With the marching band, it’s student leadership. There are five students who run the band and every aspect of it. And I’m maybe institutional memory -- a guider, if you will, a mentor at times. They chart the course of the band.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>I was a student at Berkeley not too long ago. I’ve seen firsthand the sense of community in Cal’s band. When you watch them perform, you see that they love every second of it. Can you tell me about the culture and how it’s evolved over the years?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is one of the things I talk to potential students about. Find your community, whatever it is. If it’s gonna be working on the newspaper, or if it’s gonna be a fraternity or sorority -- whatever it is, it makes a place like this a lot smaller. It’s just so strange that I’ve been here all these years, and I can walk across campus, and there isn’t one time where I’ve not seen a student that I teach -- either in the band or in the wind ensemble or something. It’s just uncanny. It does make a community within a very large one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>You’ve been all over the world with these bands. Is there one specific instance you can point to as the moment you were most proud to be director of Cal’s bands?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being asked to be in Super Bowl 50. During a recording session with Will Champion, the drummer of Coldplay, he was as kind as can be to my students. And I mean that whole experience. And there was also a memorandum -- we had to not tell anyone that we were selected. So this all occurred in late December, and the performance wasn’t until the second week of February. So for six weeks, my students didn’t say a word. And they were warned: ‘If you do, they may pull you from the show,’ so I think the whole picture -- that whole Super Bowl experience in 2016 -- is probably way up there.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The story of that conflict spotlights the impact of the California Dream on a church in transition.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Who Were the Immaculate Heart Sisters?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Daughters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary was founded in Spain in 1848. Twenty-three years later, at the invitation of the bishop of California, \u003ca href=\"http://www.paulistpress.com/Products/4959-9/take-heart.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10 sisters came to the United States\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Initially, the nuns worked with the poor, but pivoted later to education. In 1886, they began teaching in Los Angeles. Over the next several decades, they staffed Catholic schools, started a convent, and founded a high school and a college. The college, though, closed in 1981 due to financial problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1924, the order separated from Spain. The women renamed themselves the California Institute of the Sisters of the Most Holy and Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The “new” order flourished: By the 1960s, it had 600 members, most of whom were teachers. And by 1967 almost 200 sisters worked in Los Angeles’ Catholic schools. More served in their own order’s educational institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Led by broad-minded mother superiors, their order and their college were \u003ca href=\"https://muse.jhu.edu/article/474982\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">intellectually rigorous and open to diverse perspectives\u003c/a>. They welcomed female speakers such as \u003ca href=\"https://www.harpercollins.com/9780060617516/the-long-loneliness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social activist Dorothy Day\u003c/a> to campus as well as Protestant, Jewish and even Hindu religious leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Changes in Rome\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, change was stirring at the Vatican, the center of world Catholicism. In 1959, \u003ca href=\"https://www.penguin.com.au/books/journal-of-a-soul-9780385497541\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pope John XXIII\u003c/a> had invited Roman Catholic leaders to discuss the role of the church in the modern world. From 1962 to 1965, this Second Vatican Council debated Catholicism’s future. Centuries had passed with little change in church teaching, ritual, community life and world view. But now the council would, in the words of the pope, “open the windows and let in the fresh air.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Catholic leaders reviewed everything from interreligious dialogue to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">role of the church in the modern world\u003c/a>. They even updated the traditional \u003ca href=\"https://theconversation.com/why-pope-francis-is-reviving-a-long-tradition-of-local-variations-in-catholic-services-83942\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">liturgy.\u003c/a> The language changed from Latin to the vernacular, priests faced the people and popular music was welcomed into Mass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate over Vatican II’s achievements \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.reuters.com/faithworld/2012/10/11/fifty-years-on-catholics-still-debate-the-meaning-of-vatican-ii/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">continues today\u003c/a>. At the time, many Catholics were excited by the innovations, but others preferred the church as it was. They were not eager to see the council’s intentions put into practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among these conservatives was \u003ca href=\"https://muse.jhu.edu/article/442135/pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">James Francis Cardinal McIntyre of Los Angeles\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Challenging the Church Hierarchy\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Following the recommendations of the Second Vatican Council, the Immaculate Heart Sisters decided to review and renew their religious life. In 1963, the sisters began a multiyear study of their spiritual practice, community structure and mission. They met regularly to talk and pray about the future of their order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/19/us/anita-caspary-95-nun-who-led-breakaway-from-church-dies.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">According to Anita Caspary,\u003c/a> the order’s head at the time, the nuns were inspired by the Second Vatican Council; the spirit of the times (that is, the 1960s); and the growth of diverse populations that were roiling Southern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">She later wrote\u003c/a> that in this “historic moment of faith and freedom,” the community saw itself as “part of the women’s struggle for equal status in the mid-20th century.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the council’s directives did indeed reflect cultural shifts, such as reaching out to the modern secular world that had inspired the sisters. But the women also were inspired by trends closer to home. For example, Caspary and her community were intrigued by \u003ca href=\"https://www.harpercollins.com/9780061834769/encountering-america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">humanistic psychology\u003c/a>, the psychological school that emphasized personal growth and fulfillment and which had a \u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Upstart_Spring.html?id=_pOl3_rrr18C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">significant West Coast following\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until the 1960s, the women had followed church rules that governed their religious as well as personal lives. Now, rather than assume that they all needed to pray, study or meditate in the same way or at the same time, they \u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">encouraged individual experimentation\u003c/a>. When they did worship together, they wanted the freedom to decide when, where and how to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Likewise, the sisters sought relief from church mandates that controlled their daily activities, ranging from what they wore and what time they went to bed to which books they were allowed to read.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11635246\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"754\" height=\"496\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2.jpg 754w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-160x105.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-240x158.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-375x247.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-520x342.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 754px) 100vw, 754px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Oct. 14, 1967, the sisters celebrated what they called Promulgation Day, the announcement of plans for their order’s renewal. A new vision for their lives and their work, the document, for example, said that sisters who taught in religious schools would be allowed to pursue teaching credentials and graduate degrees to professionalize their work. Those who did not feel the call to teach could find other careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, each sister could choose the length, time and type of her individual prayer, and group prayer would be shaped by the community. They no longer had to seek permission from the mother superior for the small decisions of daily life. They would be free to set their bedtimes, see a doctor or make a quick trip to the store.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Opposition to the Sisters\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Two days later, on Oct. 16, a delegation of six sisters \u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sat in the office of Los Angeles’ Cardinal McIntyre\u003c/a>. Furious with the sisters’ plans for renewal, he first asked about their dress: Did they indeed intend to wear street clothes to their classrooms? Caspary said they might, and an angry McIntyre ended the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when the cardinal’s men persuaded him to continue the conversation, he refused to accept the order’s plan for renewal. Instead, he berated their defiance and doubted their commitment to religious life. As of June 1968, he told them, they would no longer teach in the city’s Catholic schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the next six months, the sisters and the cardinal \u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">presented formal cases\u003c/a> to emissaries from the Vatican. Each side also sought support from church colleagues and from the court of public opinion. Unfortunately, many newspapers played up the conflict as if the entire fight hinged on whether or not the sisters wore their traditional habits or street clothes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By spring, the message was clear: The Vatican would support the cardinal. According to official pronouncements, the women’s experimentation went too far. They had not, in other words, worked within the guidelines of the male hierarchy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rather than give up their vision for religious renewal, however, 350 of the order’s 400 sisters began planning a new lay community outside the church.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A New Vision\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>By the start of 1970, many of the Immaculate Heart Sisters had decided to renounce their vows and \u003ca href=\"https://www.immaculateheartcommunity.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reorganize as a lay community\u003c/a>. The new group, the Immaculate Heart Community, was open to lay people as well as clergy, men as well as women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the intervening years, most of the innovations that the sisters sought -- including professionalizing standards, experimenting with community worship and giving sisters control of their daily activities -- were adopted by Catholics across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Immaculate Heart Sisters drew on their time and place to create a new vision of religious community. Their sources ranged from the reforms of the Second Vatican Council to the writings of California’s humanist psychologists.

Over the next several decades, they staffed Catholic schools, started a convent, and founded a high school and a college. The college, though, closed in 1981 due to financial problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1924, the order separated from Spain. The women renamed themselves the California Institute of the Sisters of the Most Holy and Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The “new” order flourished: By the 1960s, it had 600 members, most of whom were teachers. And by 1967 almost 200 sisters worked in Los Angeles’ Catholic schools. More served in their own order’s educational institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Led by broad-minded mother superiors, their order and their college were \u003ca href=\"https://muse.jhu.edu/article/474982\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">intellectually rigorous and open to diverse perspectives\u003c/a>. They welcomed female speakers such as \u003ca href=\"https://www.harpercollins.com/9780060617516/the-long-loneliness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social activist Dorothy Day\u003c/a> to campus as well as Protestant, Jewish and even Hindu religious leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Changes in Rome\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, change was stirring at the Vatican, the center of world Catholicism. In 1959, \u003ca href=\"https://www.penguin.com.au/books/journal-of-a-soul-9780385497541\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pope John XXIII\u003c/a> had invited Roman Catholic leaders to discuss the role of the church in the modern world. From 1962 to 1965, this Second Vatican Council debated Catholicism’s future. Centuries had passed with little change in church teaching, ritual, community life and world view. But now the council would, in the words of the pope, “open the windows and let in the fresh air.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Catholic leaders reviewed everything from interreligious dialogue to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">role of the church in the modern world\u003c/a>. They even updated the traditional \u003ca href=\"https://theconversation.com/why-pope-francis-is-reviving-a-long-tradition-of-local-variations-in-catholic-services-83942\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">liturgy.\u003c/a> The language changed from Latin to the vernacular, priests faced the people and popular music was welcomed into Mass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate over Vatican II’s achievements \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.reuters.com/faithworld/2012/10/11/fifty-years-on-catholics-still-debate-the-meaning-of-vatican-ii/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">continues today\u003c/a>. At the time, many Catholics were excited by the innovations, but others preferred the church as it was. They were not eager to see the council’s intentions put into practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among these conservatives was \u003ca href=\"https://muse.jhu.edu/article/442135/pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">James Francis Cardinal McIntyre of Los Angeles\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Challenging the Church Hierarchy\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Following the recommendations of the Second Vatican Council, the Immaculate Heart Sisters decided to review and renew their religious life. In 1963, the sisters began a multiyear study of their spiritual practice, community structure and mission. They met regularly to talk and pray about the future of their order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/19/us/anita-caspary-95-nun-who-led-breakaway-from-church-dies.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">According to Anita Caspary,\u003c/a> the order’s head at the time, the nuns were inspired by the Second Vatican Council; the spirit of the times (that is, the 1960s); and the growth of diverse populations that were roiling Southern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">She later wrote\u003c/a> that in this “historic moment of faith and freedom,” the community saw itself as “part of the women’s struggle for equal status in the mid-20th century.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the council’s directives did indeed reflect cultural shifts, such as reaching out to the modern secular world that had inspired the sisters. But the women also were inspired by trends closer to home. For example, Caspary and her community were intrigued by \u003ca href=\"https://www.harpercollins.com/9780061834769/encountering-america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">humanistic psychology\u003c/a>, the psychological school that emphasized personal growth and fulfillment and which had a \u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Upstart_Spring.html?id=_pOl3_rrr18C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">significant West Coast following\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until the 1960s, the women had followed church rules that governed their religious as well as personal lives. Now, rather than assume that they all needed to pray, study or meditate in the same way or at the same time, they \u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">encouraged individual experimentation\u003c/a>. When they did worship together, they wanted the freedom to decide when, where and how to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Likewise, the sisters sought relief from church mandates that controlled their daily activities, ranging from what they wore and what time they went to bed to which books they were allowed to read.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11635246\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"754\" height=\"496\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2.jpg 754w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-160x105.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-240x158.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-375x247.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/nuns2-520x342.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 754px) 100vw, 754px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Oct. 14, 1967, the sisters celebrated what they called Promulgation Day, the announcement of plans for their order’s renewal. A new vision for their lives and their work, the document, for example, said that sisters who taught in religious schools would be allowed to pursue teaching credentials and graduate degrees to professionalize their work. Those who did not feel the call to teach could find other careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, each sister could choose the length, time and type of her individual prayer, and group prayer would be shaped by the community. They no longer had to seek permission from the mother superior for the small decisions of daily life. They would be free to set their bedtimes, see a doctor or make a quick trip to the store.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Opposition to the Sisters\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Two days later, on Oct. 16, a delegation of six sisters \u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sat in the office of Los Angeles’ Cardinal McIntyre\u003c/a>. Furious with the sisters’ plans for renewal, he first asked about their dress: Did they indeed intend to wear street clothes to their classrooms? Caspary said they might, and an angry McIntyre ended the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when the cardinal’s men persuaded him to continue the conversation, he refused to accept the order’s plan for renewal. Instead, he berated their defiance and doubted their commitment to religious life. As of June 1968, he told them, they would no longer teach in the city’s Catholic schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the next six months, the sisters and the cardinal \u003ca href=\"https://litpress.org/Products/2770/Witness-To-Integrity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">presented formal cases\u003c/a> to emissaries from the Vatican. Each side also sought support from church colleagues and from the court of public opinion. Unfortunately, many newspapers played up the conflict as if the entire fight hinged on whether or not the sisters wore their traditional habits or street clothes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By spring, the message was clear: The Vatican would support the cardinal. According to official pronouncements, the women’s experimentation went too far. They had not, in other words, worked within the guidelines of the male hierarchy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rather than give up their vision for religious renewal, however, 350 of the order’s 400 sisters began planning a new lay community outside the church.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A New Vision\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>By the start of 1970, many of the Immaculate Heart Sisters had decided to renounce their vows and \u003ca href=\"https://www.immaculateheartcommunity.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reorganize as a lay community\u003c/a>. The new group, the Immaculate Heart Community, was open to lay people as well as clergy, men as well as women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the intervening years, most of the innovations that the sisters sought -- including professionalizing standards, experimenting with community worship and giving sisters control of their daily activities -- were adopted by Catholics across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Immaculate Heart Sisters drew on their time and place to create a new vision of religious community. Their sources ranged from the reforms of the Second Vatican Council to the writings of California’s humanist psychologists. They also included women’s liberation, the anti-war movement and the countercultural wave that rolled outside their convent door.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"https://counter.theconversation.com/content/83944/count.gif?distributor=republish-lightbox-basic\" alt=\"The Conversation\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\">The California Dream and its promise of new possibilities was central to the spiritual journey of the Immaculate Heart Sisters.

After a new police transparency law unsealed scores of internal affairs files, our reporters set out to examine these cases and the shadow world of police discipline. On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
