Catholics in Phoenix -Vandel ’13
Marcos de Niza came up through the Gulf of California in 1539 and planted the first Cath-olic Church in New Mexico. He called it “the New Kingdom of St. Francis”. By 1897, 40,000 Catholics lived in the Phoenix Area. In 1877, the Sacred Heart Church in Prescott, Arizona was formed. The Sacred Heart Church is the oldest parish in the Diocese of Phoenix, St.
Mary’s Church being the second, and St. Francis Xavier being the third.

Diocese of
Phoenix –Vandel ‘13
Pope Paul VI established the Roman Catholic Dio-cese of Phoenix on December 2, 1969. He gave a mass at the Diocese of Phoenix while he visited.
The logo for the Diocese of Phoenix shows the phoenix bird rising above Camelback Mountain. The cross above the phoenix signifies the connection be-tween the Diocese of Phoenix and the Diocese of Tucson.
The Diocese of Phoenix came 101 years after the Diocese of Tucson, yet the Diocese of Phoenix has 1260 miles of more land.

People –Vandel ‘13
Pope John Paul II visited Phoenix on September 14, 1987. He visited patients at St. Joseph’s
Hospital and led a prayer at St. Mary’s Basilica. Mother Teresa visited Phoenix on February 2, 1989. Mother Teresa came to build her home
for the poor which was successfully passed by Governor Rose Moffard. Most Reverend Thom-as Olmsted became the Bishop of the Diocese

Jesuits In Phoenix—Nieblas ‘13
Above: San Xavier Del Bac, founded in 1692 by Father Eusebio Kino
Left: Father Eusebio Kino , 1645-1711, mapped the Southwest of
what is now known as the United States of America.
The Society of Jesus has always been a huge stepping stone in the new world. Mainly
through the Spanish conquistadors and various other conquests and spreading…the Jesuits
had established their dominance as the crusaders for the Christian ideals. They “Set the
World on Fire” through their teachings, missionaries, and idealistic communications.
Nevertheless, the Jesuits found their way to Phoenix and the great state of Arizona through
Father Kino, who began the peaceful conquest of the Pimerian Peninsula. The conquest took
place during the years 1687-1711.

Jesuits In Phoenix –Nieblas ‘13
After the death of Father Kino in 1711, the Jesuit missionaries had no stable foundation
to be led from. The 20 missionaries founded by Father Kino were meant for conversion
of the Pima Indians and sanctuary from slave traders. But, it all turned for the worst. Pi-
ma Indians felt that the conversions and taking of their land was wrong and fought back
against the catholic teachings; thus, the period of the Pima Indian Revolts commenced,
(1739-1751). With the Jesuit power dissolving in the peninsula, the Spaniards felt the
Franciscans were better suited in converting and inculcating beliefs of the Catholic
church in the Pima Indians.

solved Jesuits on

Jesuits In
Phoenix
Now –Nieblas ‘13
The Society of Jesus has gone through turmoil,
eradication, and death of leaders; yet, the soci-
ety continues to persevere. Through the tough-
est of times they have sought out great leaders
in their every day fathers and leaders who
have lived and cherished in the society. In
Phoenix, we find the parish of St. Francis of
Xavier and the Brophy community. The Society
of Jesus has an ever lasting legacy in Phoenix,
Arizona.

Catholic Non-Profit
Organizations –Lopez ‘13
Catholic Education Arizona is an organi-
zation that helps make Catholic schooling
affordable for kids that have the academ-
ic potential, but not the economic re-
sources. It was established in 1998 and
under the 501(c3) IRS tax code, it became
a non-profit organization. The CEA com-
mits to giving at least 93% of students in
Catholic schools the required resources.

strate what he and his Catholic students were doing to
help the poor. He started immediately and after 12
years in France, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul
moved to St. Louis, Missouri, where the headquarters of
the Society of St. Vincent de Paul are now located.

Organizations –Lopez ‘13

help with the elderly. One of them is located
in Mesa and the other in Phoenix. Both organ-
izations are non--profit under the 501 (c3)
IRS tax code. The Americare Hospice and the
Foundation for Senior Living help families

vide care and resources to them. Above: A group of seniors enjoying their time at a
