"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

About 158 bishops in the United States have released lists over the past three or four years,” said Dan McNevin of SNAP, a church abuse survivor. “But the archbishop of San Francisco will not publish a list. And so we think it’s really important to get this list out, to get it published, to update it, to provide information to victims and their families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the absence of Archbishop Cordileone releasing names, SNAP created the list of priests whom they consider credibly accused of sex abuse from news reports and lawsuits. If such a list had existed in the 1960s, McNevin told KQED, his father wouldn’t have sent him to the parish where McNevin was ultimately abused: He says the priest who assaulted him had a documented history of abuse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An archdiocese spokesperson declined to answer emailed questions about why the archbishop hasn’t released a list of priests or whether he would reconsider doing so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, the archdiocese said it reports sexual abuse allegations to authorities, an independent review board and parishes.

Any priest under investigation is prohibited from exercising public ministry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All but 15 dioceses in the U.S. have either posted their own lists of credibly accused priests or, in the case of Colorado dioceses, provided names to that state’s attorney general that were subsequently published, according to the advocacy and research group Bishop-Accountability.org. The group’s list doesn’t include eparchies, the Eastern Catholic equivalent to dioceses. Twenty-nine provinces of religious orders also have published lists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the releases vary widely in quality, said Terry McKiernan, president of Bishop-Accountability.org. Some include the priest’s full assignment histories, photos and other details, while others don’t.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">District attorney offices throughout the Central Valley are banding together to audit the Catholic Diocese of Fresno’s review of its own records for cases of possible sexual abuse, according to Madera County District Attorney Sally Moreno. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least seven counties, including Fresno and Kern, have agreed to review files or receive cases for prosecution in their jurisdictions. Moreno told KQED about the prosecutors' plan late Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year the Fresno Diocese announced it would conduct an \u003ca href=\"https://dioceseoffresno.org/stories/diocese-of-fresno-moves-forward-with-first-phase-of-independent-review/\">independent review\u003c/a> of clergy files dating back to 1922 and release a list of priests accused of sexual misconduct, an effort that other Catholic dioceses around the country have made in recent months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The diocese hired former FBI Executive Assistant Director Kathleen McChesney, of Kinsale Management Consulting, to go through the diocesan records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moreno said she aims to make her own determination about whether the review is handled properly. Prosecutors from her office will identify records that could be handed over to law enforcement and cases that can still be prosecuted under the state’s statute of limitations. Those that involve priests who are currently active in the community will be a high priority, Moreno said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Catholic Church as a whole, they don’t have — at this point — credibility to carry forward this kind of an investigation on their own,” Moreno said. “I think they understand that they need help demonstrating that they’re being transparent. And if they’re not being transparent, then we’re there to expose that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"catholic-church-sexual-abuse\" label=\"Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, district attorneys’ offices in Merced and Mariposa counties have also agreed to participate, Moreno said. The Catholic Diocese of Fresno covers eight counties and extends to the Nevada state line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(Moreno) asked me if I’d be interested and I said definitely. I’m definitely interested,” said Mariposa County District Attorney Walter Wall. “\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The church as an entity has not been the best watchdog of itself. I think it's important the elected officials who are accountable to the public look at those records and draw their own conclusions for the benefit of the public.\" \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>District attorneys from Kern, Tulare and Inyo counties said they would not personally review files but would assist in investigating and prosecuting cases that might surface during the course of the audit, which will be led by Moreno’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Recent accusations against Bakersfield priest added urgency\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Moreno, who is Catholic, said she had the idea for the audit soon after taking office in January. She accelerated plans to begin the review this summer because of allegations made recently against a longtime Bakersfield priest, Monsignor Craig Harrison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, \u003ca href=\"https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/article229812029.html\">two men accused\u003c/a> Harrison of sexual misconduct when they were teenagers in the 1980s and ‘90s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison has served as pastor at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Bakersfield for nearly two decades. He is also the chaplain for the Bakersfield Police Department and Kern County Sheriff’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a diocese press release, one man told diocese staff that Harrison had inappropriately touched him when he was between 14 and 16 years old. \u003ca href=\"https://ewscripps.brightspotcdn.com/53/ff/38eede904c468a0bab9d713de3ee/press-release-19-0003160-1.pdf\">According to police\u003c/a>, the abuse allegedly occurred in Firebaugh, where Harrison worked as a priest from 1992-1999.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The allegations were first reported to church officials on April 12. The diocese waited until April 15 to report the allegations to the Firebaugh Police Department. The Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests (\u003ca href=\"http://www.snapnetwork.org/\">SNAP\u003c/a>) criticized the diocese for \u003ca href=\"http://www.snapnetwork.org/snap_extremely_troubled_by_reporting_delay_in_the_diocese_of_fresno_apr19\">waiting three days\u003c/a> to contact law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The police stations are open 24/7 and the phones always work,” Dan McNevin of SNAP California said. “All it required was for the bishop to pick the phone up and call police and say, ‘We’ve got a report, it just came in. We are discharging our mandatory duty to report.’ He didn’t do that. It took three days.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McNevin said SNAP would call on the Fresno County District Attorney’s Office to investigate why the diocese waited an entire weekend to contact law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The trouble with these reports going to the bishop before reporting to police,” McNevin said, “is that the time that it takes to do that reporting is time when evidence can be destroyed, when witnesses can be tampered with.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several days later, a second man came forward with allegations against Harrison. This time, diocese staff directed the alleged victim to make a report to police directly. A lieutenant with the Merced Police Department, the agency currently investigating the case, confirmed that a 46-year-old man accused Harrison of engaging in sexual misconduct when the man was a teenager in Merced in the late 1980s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison worked as a priest in Merced from 1987 to 1989 at Our Lady of Mercy, St. Patrick’s and Sacred Heart Catholic churches, according to the Fresno Diocese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Fresno Sheriff’s Office said Harrison was questioned about other cases in 1997 and 1998, but they were not sexually related and were found to be unsubstantiated, a spokesman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Diocese of Fresno said it is cooperating with law enforcement and notifying other churches where Harrison has worked. According to the diocese, Harrison also worked in Mojave from 1991 to 1992 and in Bakersfield again from 1989 to 1991.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When something like this happens, people ask: What’s being done?” Moreno said. “I just know that if the Diocese of Fresno comes out and says, ‘Hey we audited, and everything’s cool!’ people are gonna say, ‘Oh, no way. You can’t audit yourself.’ So we’re here to say we’re here and we’re checking it over.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison’s attorney, Kyle J.

Moreno told KQED about the prosecutors' plan late Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year the Fresno Diocese announced it would conduct an \u003ca href=\"https://dioceseoffresno.org/stories/diocese-of-fresno-moves-forward-with-first-phase-of-independent-review/\">independent review\u003c/a> of clergy files dating back to 1922 and release a list of priests accused of sexual misconduct, an effort that other Catholic dioceses around the country have made in recent months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The diocese hired former FBI Executive Assistant Director Kathleen McChesney, of Kinsale Management Consulting, to go through the diocesan records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moreno said she aims to make her own determination about whether the review is handled properly. Prosecutors from her office will identify records that could be handed over to law enforcement and cases that can still be prosecuted under the state’s statute of limitations. Those that involve priests who are currently active in the community will be a high priority, Moreno said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The Catholic Diocese of Fresno covers eight counties and extends to the Nevada state line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(Moreno) asked me if I’d be interested and I said definitely. I’m definitely interested,” said Mariposa County District Attorney Walter Wall. “\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The church as an entity has not been the best watchdog of itself. I think it's important the elected officials who are accountable to the public look at those records and draw their own conclusions for the benefit of the public.\" \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>District attorneys from Kern, Tulare and Inyo counties said they would not personally review files but would assist in investigating and prosecuting cases that might surface during the course of the audit, which will be led by Moreno’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Recent accusations against Bakersfield priest added urgency\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Moreno, who is Catholic, said she had the idea for the audit soon after taking office in January. She accelerated plans to begin the review this summer because of allegations made recently against a longtime Bakersfield priest, Monsignor Craig Harrison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, \u003ca href=\"https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/article229812029.html\">two men accused\u003c/a> Harrison of sexual misconduct when they were teenagers in the 1980s and ‘90s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison has served as pastor at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Bakersfield for nearly two decades. He is also the chaplain for the Bakersfield Police Department and Kern County Sheriff’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a diocese press release, one man told diocese staff that Harrison had inappropriately touched him when he was between 14 and 16 years old. \u003ca href=\"https://ewscripps.brightspotcdn.com/53/ff/38eede904c468a0bab9d713de3ee/press-release-19-0003160-1.pdf\">According to police\u003c/a>, the abuse allegedly occurred in Firebaugh, where Harrison worked as a priest from 1992-1999.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The allegations were first reported to church officials on April 12. The diocese waited until April 15 to report the allegations to the Firebaugh Police Department. The Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests (\u003ca href=\"http://www.snapnetwork.org/\">SNAP\u003c/a>) criticized the diocese for \u003ca href=\"http://www.snapnetwork.org/snap_extremely_troubled_by_reporting_delay_in_the_diocese_of_fresno_apr19\">waiting three days\u003c/a> to contact law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The police stations are open 24/7 and the phones always work,” Dan McNevin of SNAP California said. “All it required was for the bishop to pick the phone up and call police and say, ‘We’ve got a report, it just came in. We are discharging our mandatory duty to report.’ He didn’t do that. It took three days.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McNevin said SNAP would call on the Fresno County District Attorney’s Office to investigate why the diocese waited an entire weekend to contact law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The trouble with these reports going to the bishop before reporting to police,” McNevin said, “is that the time that it takes to do that reporting is time when evidence can be destroyed, when witnesses can be tampered with.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several days later, a second man came forward with allegations against Harrison. This time, diocese staff directed the alleged victim to make a report to police directly. A lieutenant with the Merced Police Department, the agency currently investigating the case, confirmed that a 46-year-old man accused Harrison of engaging in sexual misconduct when the man was a teenager in Merced in the late 1980s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison worked as a priest in Merced from 1987 to 1989 at Our Lady of Mercy, St. Patrick’s and Sacred Heart Catholic churches, according to the Fresno Diocese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Fresno Sheriff’s Office said Harrison was questioned about other cases in 1997 and 1998, but they were not sexually related and were found to be unsubstantiated, a spokesman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Diocese of Fresno said it is cooperating with law enforcement and notifying other churches where Harrison has worked. According to the diocese, Harrison also worked in Mojave from 1991 to 1992 and in Bakersfield again from 1989 to 1991.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When something like this happens, people ask: What’s being done?” Moreno said. “I just know that if the Diocese of Fresno comes out and says, ‘Hey we audited, and everything’s cool!’ people are gonna say, ‘Oh, no way. You can’t audit yourself.’ So we’re here to say we’re here and we’re checking it over.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison’s attorney, Kyle J. Humphrey, said his client was innocent, and that the diocese has kept him in the dark about the allegations and the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What is there to investigate?” Humphrey asked. “Someone comes forward 25 or 30 years in time and says something happened, but we don’t know that it did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's possible people misremember things,” Humphrey said. “And it’s also possible that people need attention, that they have mental challenges, that they have addiction issues, that they’ve just had horrible lives and they have an opportunity to damage others and they get some satisfaction from it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked if Harrison has ever been accused of sexual misconduct, aside from the most recent allegations, Humphrey said he hadn’t heard of any allegations that would require him to have any involvement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A group of Bakersfield parishioners organized a prayer vigil to show support for Harrison after the most recent allegations were made public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/article229812029.html\">The Fresno Bee\u003c/a> reported that Harrison is the fifth priest in the Fresno Catholic Diocese to be investigated and placed on paid leave due to allegations of sexual and other misconduct in recent months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t think of another diocese the size of Fresno that has five men being investigated simultaneously in 2019,” McNevin said. “Oakland right now has two.

The bishop of the Diocese of Oakland, Michael C. Barber, \u003ca href=\"https://www.catholicvoiceoakland.org/2018/10-08/frontpage1.htm\">wrote in a blog post\u003c/a> he will follow suit within about 45 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McGrath had announced his plans to disclose the names in August. The release of those names followed four \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/09/22/horrified-parishioners-blast-san-jose-diocese-catholic-church-over-sexual-abuse-allegations/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">listening sessions\u003c/a> McGrath held with parishioners throughout the diocese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Published in English, Spanish and Vietnamese, the list includes where each priest worked, the allegations made against them and when the claims were reported to the diocese. The dates on the reports range from 1976 to 2018. For several of the priests listed, there were multiple allegations over extended periods of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have attempted to make this list as accurate and complete as possible,\" McGrath said in the statement. An independent audit of priest personnel files will start next month, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Should additional credible allegations surface during the investigation, those names will be added to the list that I am providing today,\" McGrath said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The release is a clear sign of the diocese's effort to reassure its parishioners that it is taking proactive measures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone has also recently held listening sessions at parishes and is leaning towards releasing a list, too, said communications director Mike Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our vigilance, training and prevention efforts are ongoing and we continually seek to improve them,\" Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/10/18/san-jose-diocese-to-name-accused-priests-today/\">told the San Jose Mercury News\u003c/a>. \"There can no longer be a culture of secrecy in the church, but one of transparency and accountability.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among victims' support groups, however, reactions to the disclosure were mixed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I applaud the list and like the fact it includes the places where the accused priests worked,\" said Tim Stier, a former priest and longtime activist pushing for church reform. He noted that the San Jose diocese has responded more proactively than others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That will help victims who have never come forward to remember and possibly come forward,\" Stier added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he expressed doubt that much would change unless the church addressed the root of the problem, in what he described as the current \"all-male, pseudo-celibate, secretive, hierarchical culture.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As long as that system remains in place, abuse will continue,\" Stier said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joey Piscitelli, who heads the regional Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP), called the diocese's decision a \"calculated first step.\" Releasing the names, he said, is an attempt to \"show they're being good and upfront and forthright, when in fact I think they're trying to beat investigations by the state to the punch.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said the list falls blatantly short, noting that it leaves out a number of well-known offenders, including Jesuit priests in San Jose who have been accused or sued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Just off the top of my head, I can think of four names that they left off the list,\" Piscitelli said, referring to one of the overlooked priests as a \"notorious pedophile.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He called the release \"the tip of the iceberg.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is some kind of attempt to give names, but they do leave names out, and I think that's intentional and I think if they were more forthright, they would list all the names,\" Piscitelli said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The release of those names followed four \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/09/22/horrified-parishioners-blast-san-jose-diocese-catholic-church-over-sexual-abuse-allegations/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">listening sessions\u003c/a> McGrath held with parishioners throughout the diocese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Published in English, Spanish and Vietnamese, the list includes where each priest worked, the allegations made against them and when the claims were reported to the diocese. The dates on the reports range from 1976 to 2018. For several of the priests listed, there were multiple allegations over extended periods of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have attempted to make this list as accurate and complete as possible,\" McGrath said in the statement. An independent audit of priest personnel files will start next month, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Should additional credible allegations surface during the investigation, those names will be added to the list that I am providing today,\" McGrath said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The release is a clear sign of the diocese's effort to reassure its parishioners that it is taking proactive measures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone has also recently held listening sessions at parishes and is leaning towards releasing a list, too, said communications director Mike Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our vigilance, training and prevention efforts are ongoing and we continually seek to improve them,\" Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/10/18/san-jose-diocese-to-name-accused-priests-today/\">told the San Jose Mercury News\u003c/a>. \"There can no longer be a culture of secrecy in the church, but one of transparency and accountability.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among victims' support groups, however, reactions to the disclosure were mixed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I applaud the list and like the fact it includes the places where the accused priests worked,\" said Tim Stier, a former priest and longtime activist pushing for church reform. He noted that the San Jose diocese has responded more proactively than others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That will help victims who have never come forward to remember and possibly come forward,\" Stier added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he expressed doubt that much would change unless the church addressed the root of the problem, in what he described as the current \"all-male, pseudo-celibate, secretive, hierarchical culture.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As long as that system remains in place, abuse will continue,\" Stier said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joey Piscitelli, who heads the regional Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP), called the diocese's decision a \"calculated first step.\" Releasing the names, he said, is an attempt to \"show they're being good and upfront and forthright, when in fact I think they're trying to beat investigations by the state to the punch.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said the list falls blatantly short, noting that it leaves out a number of well-known offenders, including Jesuit priests in San Jose who have been accused or sued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Just off the top of my head, I can think of four names that they left off the list,\" Piscitelli said, referring to one of the overlooked priests as a \"notorious pedophile.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He called the release \"the tip of the iceberg.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is some kind of attempt to give names, but they do leave names out, and I think that's intentional and I think if they were more forthright, they would list all the names,\" Piscitelli said.\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.

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.

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.

And the Anglo population really increases with the arrival of the railroads in Los Angeles in the 1880s.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In America, there’s a rich tradition of just-got-here-yesterday people concocting romantic origin myths, and a number of influential Southern Californians wanted one of their own.
