POLISH AMERICAN CONGRESS MICHIGAN DIVISION INVITES TO POLISH NOVENA AT STE. ANNE DE DETROIT

St. Anne De Detroit Church, located near Ambassador’s Bridge in Detroit, dates back to Cadillac’s settling of Detroit in 1701, and it’s considered the second-oldest continuously operating Roman Catholic parish in the U.S.  The current Neo-Gothic structure, the parish’s 8th church building, dates to 1886 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

What was once Detroit’s signature French-language parish – the old school building has the name “Ecole Ste. Anne” carved into it – now has a growing, vibrant, primarily Hispanic congregation.

But once a year, for 10 days, the church becomes a site for Ethnic Novena, catered to the diverse community of Metro Detroit.

On Thursday, July 20, a Polish Novena will be held, with Fr. Ostrowski as Presider, and featuring award-winning Filarets Choir.  Knights of Columbus, Polish dance groups will also be featured.

This year the Novena will introduce a special new tradition: carrying of flags – the flag of the nation represented, the Detroit flag, the American flag, and the Vatican flag.

Refreshments will be served after the Novena at the Parish Hall.

St. Anne De Detroit Church: 1000 St Anne St, Detroit, MI 48216.  Visit www.ste-anne.org for more information.

“Dear Parents, I Am Sending You My Picture, But You Probably Won’t Recognize Me”

HAMTRAMCK, Mich. – That statement, written in a letter to her parents by a young Polish immigrant woman in Chicago in 1891, summarizes the essence of the immigration experience for women. Dr. Thaddeus Radzilowski, who has written on the history of Polish immigrant women, will lecture on this topic on April 27, 2017 at the Warren Civic Center Library (1 City Square, Warren, MI 48093) at 6 p.m.

 

The immigration experience of women paralleled, in many ways, that of their male counterparts. Yet it was distinctive in many of the challenges and opportunities it offered. Women immigrated as part of family groups, as mothers with children reuniting with husbands, joining fiancés, and as single immigrants seeking adventure and wider opportunities in the New World. America transformed them. It changed their outlook and allowed them to accomplish things that would have been impossible in the villages they left behind. They crossed the oceans alone, found employment in distant cities, chose their own marriage partners, and built homes, families, and communities without the support of female relatives. They, in turn, also transformed America. They built a new society and a new culture in urban neighborhoods in smoky industrial cities, and on remote farmsteads on the American prairies. They created a myriad of organizations, clubs, and circles, as well as neighborhood networks to replace the support systems of village and family they left behind.

 

The lecture will be followed by questions and discussion. The discussion will open opportunities to explore the individual and family stories of audience. It is sponsored by the Piast Institute and funded in part by a grant from the Michigan Humanities Council.

 

For more information, please contact Ashley Fallon at fallon@piastinstitute.org or call the Piast Institute at (313) 733-4535.

KPA w Michigan oddaje hołd pamięci ofiar katastrofy smoleńskiej i zbrodni katyńskiej

 

HAMTRAMCK, MI – Kongres Polonii Amerykańskiej wydział na stan Michigan zaprasza na uroczystą Mszę św. ku pamięci ofiar masakry katyńskiej oraz katastrofy smoleńskiej.

Msza św. odbędzie się w niedzielę, 9 kwietnia, o godzinie 6:00 wieczorem w kościele św. Faustyny w Warren (14025 E. 12 Mile Road).

Msza św. uczci siódmą rocznicę katastrofy lotniczej, do której doszło w Smoleńsku w sobotę, 10 kwietnia 2010 roku.  Zginęło w niej 96 osób, wśród nich m.in.: prezydent RP Lech Kaczyński z małżonką, ostatni prezydent RP na uchodźstwie Ryszard Kaczorowski, wicemarszałkowie Sejmu i Senatu, grupa parlamentarzystów, dowódcy wszystkich rodzajów Sił Zbrojnych RP, szefowie instytucji państwowych, duchowni, przedstawiciele ministerstw, organizacji kombatanckich i społecznych.  Była to druga pod względem liczby ofiar katastrofa w historii polskiego lotnictwa i największa pod względem liczby ofiar katastrofa w dziejach polskich Sił Powietrznych.  Katastrofy nie przeżyła żadna z osób obecnych na pokładzie.

Msza św. uczci także ofiary zbrodni katyńskiej, której w 1940 roku dopuściła się radziecka policja polityczna NKWD.  Na mocy decyzji najwyższych władz Związku Socjalistycznych Republik Radzieckich NKWD rozstrzelała co najmniej 21 tysięcy obywateli Polski, w tym ponad 10 tysięcy oficerów wojska polskiego, których uznano za „wrogów władzy sowieckiej”.  Zabito ich strzałami w tył głowy.  W latach 1940–1990 władze ZSRR zaprzeczały swojej odpowiedzialności za zbrodnię katyńską, lecz 13 kwietnia 1990 roku oficjalnie przyznały, że była to „jedna z ciężkich zbrodni stalinizmu”.

Zapraszamy całą patriotyczną Polonię na tę ważną, uroczystą Mszę św.
