Canon Kelly had claimed that Catherine McAuley was trespassing the missional field of Mary Aikenhead’s Apostolate. Both women were busy helping the poor as to engage with insulting thoughts towards each other. Catherine had years of teaching experience when Mary Aikenhead's apostolate began teaching. On June 4, 1829, Canon Kelly delivered her first rant which had stated that Catherine was competing with a religious community. For Catherine, this was too absurd to entertain, and she resented her involvement. Earlier on September 10, 1829, Catherine had assured Father Francis that she would continue her original purpose which was to alleviate the suffering and teachings of the ignorant. Ladies would dedicate themselves to this service and when they no longer felt inclined, they would return to their normal life. Catherine disliked the idea of religious vows and disapproved of observances being misrepresented. ]]> 2021-09-22 16:46:08 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760630030 zeinyflores https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760630493 Summary:
Catherine McAuley did not entirely disapprove of religious life. Her main objective was that religious life at that time influenced the breadth of the apostolate that she intended. Nano Nagle’s goal was discarded after her death when the Presentation Sisters opted for an enclosure, and Catherine McAuley, approaching the greatest crisis of her life, was determined to find a practical way out of the dilemma she had accidentally encountered. In anticipating current ideas about the place of a religious community in the local church, Catherine became mistrusted. She fell victim to a persistent fear that overshadowed her work and yet she unconsciously led the group to the threshold of the sanctuary. The most soul-seeking motto was formed in which was asking the divine Lord to help and comfort them so that they could overcome all obstacles on their way. The Clarendon Street Carmelite Fathers were an important shaper of Catherine McAuley’s life and work. Manuscripts written unanimously testified that they were grateful to this order since they always received kindness, support and encouragement from them. Shortly after the inauguration of the chapel on Baggot Street, the Sacred Heart of Jesus was formed. ]]> 2021-09-22 16:46:18 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760630493 zeinyflores https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760631270 Summary:
By 1830, Catherine’s associates increased which led to conventual stability. Uniform dress was adopted, a common schedule was worked out for spiritual practice and daily life. The uniform dress was a rough gray cloak with a black silk hood and a muslin veil and during summer the cloak was replaced by a scarf. The schedule provided a time for prayer, mass, work and recreation. Another schedule was provided for private reading, private prayer and public rosary which focused more on the religious life. Anne O’Grady who spent a year at Wexford’s convent asked to still be called “Sister” and was granted her request. Catherine smiled at everything. Everyone who had to alleviate a need, suffering or difficulty came to her for help and she did her best to help. She was tireless in her efforts to revitalize the needs. ]]> 2021-09-22 16:46:36 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760631270 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760634130 Summary: The Archbishop guaranteed that Catherine could still pursue her apostolate and that her institution will have its own status. She studied the rules of most of the congregations that were established in Dublin. Catherine chose the Rule of the Presentation Sisters that was founded by Nano Nagle in 1775. She feared that her absence might be damaging to the infant establishment, due to her age, so Dr. Murray sent her two religious of the order. It was decided that two person would be sent to serve as a novitiate at George's Hill if permission was obtained. Anna Maria Doyle, Elizabeth Harley and Catherine McAuley started their training in George's Hill on September 8, 1830. Mary Anne Delany was appointed as a temporary superior in Baggot Street by Catherine. Frances Ward was given control of the finances.]]> 2021-09-22 16:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760634130 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760634529 Summary: The novitiate period lasted from September 8, 1830 to December 12, 1831 and the fifteen months were a more difficult time or trial that had been expected. Catherine inspired and guided the people of the House of Mercy and her views were greatly accepted by them. She was punished and publicly corrected for trifling faults at George's Hill. Catherine was humiliated before her relations and had to read them from the Imitation of Christ. She went through other punishments for things like over-staying in the parlor by mere minutes and was not allowed to see the President of Carlow College. Catherine was ordered to kneel at the foot of the novitiate table with her arms extended in the form of a cross. Even though she was old and elderly, she had to do that for more than an hour with her arms still stretched and her body trembling and about to collapse. She was denied communication with Baggot Street and she worried about young helpers whom were sick and dying. Caroline Murphy died on June 1831 and Anne O'Grady was dying. Father O'Hanlon and Burke walked around the House at night, after ten, to make sure that the lights were out in order to prevent further misguided austeries. ]]> 2021-09-22 16:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760634529 nicolehernandez8 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760650304 Catherine McAuley had just permanently resided in Baggot Street in May 1828 when she started to receive backlash from the citizens around the area. Her arrival stirred disapproval among these people, painting her in a negative way. Those who failed to understand why she was doing the things she did criticized her immensely; though she had some supporters. Furthermore, she received the most backlash for sending letters to the catholic people of the community asking for donations for the upkeep of the House of Mercy. This was not a common practice, especially for a woman back in those days; but still, Catherine's faith and determination never wavered.]]> 2021-09-22 16:53:54 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760650304 nicolehernandez8 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760660714 The letter sent to the Catholics of the neighborhood was written and approved by Reverend Matthew Kelly and Reverend Doctor Armstrong. It stated that hundreds of young girls who are in need of homes are housed there, where they would be taught valuable lessons in order to navigate this world along with God. By doing this, they would be protecting these females from the corruption of the outside world. Therefore, a donation was always welcomed in order for them to continue this practice. The letter received some positive outcomes, though negative feedback was bound to be experienced. Some anonymous writer demanded not to hear from Catherine ever again and asked to be left alone. While another one criticized Catherine for leading in such "manly" doings. Implying that it's not her place to be doing such things a man should've done. These harsh words did affect Catherine sometimes, but it never once caused her to regret her actions.]]> 2021-09-22 16:57:58 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760660714 jessaminenovelo https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760661340 Summary: The Presentation Sisters agreed to this and on 12 December 1831 Sister M. Catherine McAuley, Sister M. Anne Doyle and Sister M. Elizabeth Harley were professed. At Catherine's own request, her community now addressed her as Mother Catherine as she wished. The title was not superseded by the more formal Reverend Mother until convents outside her native Dublin were established. Then Mother Catherine and her community, by Dr Murray's direction, patterned their lives on the chapter on Union and Charity. Mother Catherine could not have written anything more expressive of the perfection of charity which was her goals in life and always directed her Sisters]]> 2021-09-22 16:58:13 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760661340 nicolehernandez8 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760661667 As the House of Mercy began to get increasingly known, more girls started to be housed there; some even extended their residency to months instead of weeks. Because of this trend the House of Mercy needed more donations to maintain these girls in acceptable conditions. Therefore, many fundraiser and bazaars were planned to happen. Catherine's bold moves stirred up controversy between the people, especially when she asked The Duchess of Kent and Princess Victoria for contributions. The criticism she received was so immense that even Rev. Matthew Kelly of St. Andrews managed to be one of her biggest critic. Despite this, the Duchess and Princess donated a generous amount of things, which Catherine received with open arms. During this whole ordeal, she even managed to plan a charity sermon as the last source for financial gain. This sermon happened to be a big success, and was carried out annually after that.]]> 2021-09-22 16:58:20 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760661667 jessaminenovelo https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760663742 Summary: To Catherine McAuley education was very important. Her priority to school systems have been going on for years. Archbishop Murray had all of Catherine's support in giving the the National School Systems ealy applications to the new board. Personality, purpose, scholarship, specialization, preparation, progressiveness, motivation were the aims and methods of Catherine. She encouraged schools that kindness and patience is needed for a solid foundation and that the children should be rewarded as a way to let the children know that teachers are to be trusted like best friends. She also made her views on discipline heard by saying they should not be punished if they were given sufficient work.

Catherine McAuley encouraged the pension schools for having middle class because the poor schools could have their needs addressed. A letter was written to Sister M. Josephine Warde and was told that the peNsion schools in Cork were doing good and after this the Cork community got their own poor school. There was even AN ADULT EDUCATION CENTRE for the deaf and the mutes. THE SECRET OF HER SUCCESS LAY IN HER SPIRITUAL FORMATION, OPENESS TO NEW IDEAS, HER ABILITY TO ADAPT AND ASSIMILATE AND HER WILLINGNESS TO LEARN FROM OLDER MODELS AND SHARE THIS WITH OTHERS. ]]> 2021-09-22 16:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760664437 nicolehernandez8 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760664999 2021-09-22 16:59:28 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760664999 zeinyflores https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760665821 2021-09-22 16:59:47 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760665821 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760679881 Catherine McAuley barged the progress of the Catholic in Ireland. Unfortunately, the Rev. Mattias Kelly returned to  attack in 1830. He was unknowledgeable about that the unlearned sex could do anything, but mischief. The canon were angered by Catherine's warning to Mary Aikenhead. they also had a grudge in Dr. Murray's concession regarding the public masses held on Sundays and Holidays. The canon's Townsend Street Chapel was where the Sisters of Mercy would teach school.  In 1830, Canon Kelly visited the Institute of Mercy, for the purpose of conveying TO Miss McAuley THAT THE ARCHBISHOP INTENDED IN HANDING OVER HER INSITUTE TO THE SISTERS OF CHARITY. BUT THAT Catherine would be allowed private apartments and entrance to the house. the testing time for the foundress, who would one day advise her Sisters TO PRESERVE SERENITY UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES.......GREATNESS OF DEMEANOUR. , was done.]]> 2021-09-22 17:05:12 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760679881 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760683430 Catherine McAuley told Canon Kelly that the house was already taken over by an Archbishop. Surprisingly, an Archbishop received Catherine's letter that was not yet certified. All that she wanted was his blessing and permission to continue on her work. Dr. Murray brought the Irish Sisters of Charity and the Loreto Sisters to Dublin. Dr. Murray final demand to Catherine was that she either become a religious or end the work done by her. God's call to her was that she makes her name famous that it would be used as a blessing. Developing a group of people assembled to religious worship was not clear to her as yet. therefore, she agreed to place her little community within the greater community of the Church.]]> 2021-09-22 17:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760683430 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1760684808 Catherine in her own words to the Lord. She said that the Lord is her whole desire and only some loves him. To him, she gives herself without reserve and forever. She declares her heart as an acceptable sacrifice.

Success attended her efforts because God, like always, was the source and the goal of all her accomplishments and ideals she had.

She would tell people of her edification she received during during her time in the convent from the nuns, superiors and Mother Mary Francis Knowd. Catherine composed a poem after her reception as a novice in December 1830. The poem talks about pleasant reminiscences of her her days. Catherine was strong and persevered during her time at George's Hill. Sister. M. Elizabeth Harley's health was visibly deteriorating . Archbishop Murray proposed to Catherine and her companions vows that would bind them chastity, perpetual poverty and obedience AND SERVICE TO THE POOR in the congregation of the Sisters of Mercy. The Presentation Sisters agreed to this and on December 12, 1831 Sister M. Catherine McAuley, Sister M. Anne Doyle and Sister M. Elizabeth Harley were professed. Canonical status was also obtained for the congregation of Sisters of Mercy that day. ]]> 2021-09-28 15:20:50 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1775036156 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1775570251 2021-09-28 18:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1775570251 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776161421 2021-09-28 23:28:29 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776161421 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776162035 2021-09-28 23:28:58 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776162035 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776162377 2021-09-28 23:29:14 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776162377 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776162983 2021-09-28 23:29:40 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776162983 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776165224 2021-09-28 23:31:22 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776165224 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776168430 2021-09-28 23:33:46 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776168430 noelialopez12 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776170209 2021-09-28 23:35:10 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1776170209 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800809175 2021-10-07 19:35:59 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800809175 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800819757 2021-10-07 19:42:31 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800819757 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800837859 2021-10-07 19:53:54 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800837859 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800848068 2021-10-07 20:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800848068 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800874772 2021-10-07 20:19:06 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800874772 https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800880287   ]]> 2021-10-07 20:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/noelialopez12/59r2iitils3fac62/wish/1800880287
