Upper right: Standing room only. lower left and right: The procession to the Church. Just about everybody returned on Sunday, Sept. 30, 1956, to St. .loseph's Church, for the 100th birthday. lt's been a long time since 1,800 persons last crowded within its stately walls for any celebration. They came from all ages of life and all walks of society. Cardinal Mooney was there with the Venerable Msgr. Henry J. Kaufmann, a former pastor, as his assistant priest. The Mass was offered by the parish's ninth pastor, Fr. Arnold F. Schneider. Deacon and subdeaoon were Fr. Richard J. Dorr and Fr. Anthony J. Kaufmann, former members of the parish. Fr. Bernard N. Geller, a former assistant, gave the sermon. He traced from St. Joseph's parish the rise and growth of such parishes in Detroit as St. Elizabeth's, St. Anthony's, Nativity and St. Catherine's. He saw, too, the strong contribution the old parish had made to Catholic life in Detroit in her 13,328 baptisms, 2,9i7 marriages and 6,383 tunerals. Cardinai Mooney in his message 'of congratulations added to Fr. Geller's comments on the statistics of the parish, by saying that innumerable broken hearts had been mended by the long line of priests who had served in St. Josephs. in scanning the parish's future His Eminence asked the congregation to thank city officials for having cleared fheaway for a reiuvenation of the old parish. The recent leveling of blighted areas around St. Joseph's has made possible a new life for the parish. And His Eminence said he hoped that the new life that entered the cleared area would bring a new hope to the old parish, and eventually raise her to the proud stature she once held among the parishes of Detroit. f ,Q ,,,..
