Mesquita) was sunk in 1900. He was so grateful that all but one crewmen survived that he sent for a blessed crown to be delivered from Portugal.<br /><br />Ships represented in this collection include the Jorgina, Harriett, Elsie G. Silva, Gil Eannes, Natalie Hammond, Mary F. Sears, Flora L. Oliver, Leonora Silveira, Edith Silveira, Adeline, Evelyn M. Goulart, Clara G.

They are the cornerstone by which future parishioners can build an even greater community of people loving and serving the Lord our God. �Pope John Paul II Dear Father Alves: On the happy occasion of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the founding of the Parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage, it gives me great pleasure to offer you and the priests, religious and faithful members of the Parish my sincere and heartfelt congratulations. This milestone is a tribute to many people, living and dead, and at this significant time it will be my privilege to remember all of them in a special way in my prayers. May God bless each and every one of the members of Our Lady of Good Voyage Parish . With warm personal regards , and asking God to bless you, I am Sincerely yours in Christ, LJL~ Archbishop of Boston �REVEREND EUGENE L. ALVES, PASTOR - 1974 - Present November 1988 - November 1989 As we begin this Centinnial Celebration of this Parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage, I extend to all of you, parishioners and friends, a hearty greeting. One hundred years is, indeed, a momentous event in the history of this Parish and in the history of this community known as the City of Gloucester. It is a time of thanksgiving, a time of reminiscencing, a time of enjoyment, a time of celebration, as we endeavor to call to mind our roots, mark our accomplishments, honor and revere those who have gone before us and thank and recognize all of you who labor tirelessly for the betterment of this parish and for the honor and glory of Almighty God. We begin the year and we shall end the year in the same manner, in a spirit of prayer and thanks to God for all that he has done for us as a church, a group of people united in his worship. The events during the year are intended to be an invitation to celebrate the gift of life which this parish nourishes and in which this parish acts as a catalyst uniting all of us as a vibrant and caring group of people who manifest our love for God by our willingness to love one another. As we begin this important centennial year in our history, we place our lives and our parish under the protecton and care of our patronness, Mary, the Mother of God, under the title of Our Lady of Good Voyage, lifting our voices praying: ''O Mary, protect us on our journey For all of your ways are beautiful and all of your paths are peace.'' �Shepherds of the Flock 1889-1989 Pastors: Rev. Francisco Viera DeBem 1890-1921 Fr. DeBem, born in Boston, Mass., but raised in the Azores , was officially appointed Pastor of the newly formed parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage on December 1, 1890. Fr. DeBemguided his flock through the planning and construction of the first church, a wooden structure which was destroyed by fire in 1914, and the building of a new structure in 1915. He died before his dream of having bells installed in the church became a reality. However, one of the carillons is inscribed "In Memoriam of Rev. Francisco V. DeBem." Rev. Francisco Goulart Martins 1922-1944 Fr. Martins was born in Pico, Azores, where he studied for the priesthood and served as pastor for several Azorean parishes. In 1921 he visited the United States where he delivered the eulogy at the funeral services of Fr. DeBem. Later he was appointed Pastor of Our Lady's. He was an eloquent speaker and his gracious manner and kindliness earned him the respect and love of his parishioners and others in the community. Monsignor DeMoura came to Our Lady 's in 1944. He continued the traditions of his Portuguese parishioners , later adding the Portuguese Blessing of the Fleet. During his pastorate, Monsignor DeMoura saw the building of the Stella Maris Hall; the purchase from the City of the Mt. Vernon School, which became a school of religion for the parish youth; the establishment of a convent whose sisters would instruct the young in their faith and the redecoration of the church building. He lived to see Our Lady's become known as the ''National Rev. Monsignor Stephen DeMoura 1944- 1965 Shrine of the Fishermen.'' Rev. John Roach 1965- 1974 Fr. Roach was assigned Pastor of Our Lady's in 1965. He continued with the building of a parish strong in faith and service. During his pastorate, the interior of the church was redecorated restoring the pastel colors of the original decorations. �REV. JOHN S. PERRY REV. WILLIAM J. BURNS REV.

Eugene Alves The Choir �The Laity Are Called to Serve the Lord in Different RolesLectors: Men, women and children are presently sharing the "Good News ofJesus Christ" in the liturgy of the Mass. Extraordinary Eucharistic Ministers to the Liturgy: Men and women of the parish have received special training and formation to become ministers of the Eucharist at Mass. Their role is to distribute communion at daily and weekend Masses when there are a limited number of priests to do this. Extraordinary Eucharistic Ministers to the Homebound Elderly: A special group of Eucharistic Ministers are involved in visits to our elderly and homebound persons. Altar Servers: For 100 years, our young boys have been assisting the priests during the liturgy of the Mass . To understand altar servers, we have to first understand the " Ministry of Acolyte," which means ' 'one who follows .'' For centuries this was a minor order in the Church and the first step toward priesthood. Substitutes for official acolytes began in the 8th century. They add to the dignity of the liturgical celebration. Ushers: Men of the parish who assist the congregation as ushers are an important part of the Catholic family. They not only take up the collection but assist in many other ways. Volunteers: To all those people who, when called upon, are so ready to assist our parish, we give thanks. �OUR LADY'S RECTORY: HERBERT MORAIS, SEX1DN �1D HONOR HIS NAME THE HOLY NAME SOCIETY OF OUR LADY OF GOOD VOYAGE 1908-1988 Our Holy Name Society was instituted on August 9, 1908 with eight members, Rev. Francis Viera deBem as Spiritual Director. Manuel Bolcome, President; Joseph A. Perry, Secretary; Manuel F. Mitchell, Treasurer; Joseph M. Costa and F.E. Fialho. By 1921 the Holy Name Society had grown and thrived to a membership of over 200. These 200 members, mostly Portuguese immigrants, sworn to honor the Holy Name of Jesus Christ, were men of respect and strong beliefs in family, work, tradition and culture, Catholic faith and devotion. These men and their families were called upon many times to prove their devotion. Because of a disastrous fire which destroyed the first church in 1914, the members of the Holy Name Society and their families and friends went about the building of another church; more beautiful than the first and better suited to the differing religious work of a large parish. To these early members of the Holy Name Society and to those who have followed we say, "Muito obrigado" for their untiring devotion to Our Lady's and for the inspiration of their labors of love and faith. The heart of every parish is Jesus Christ. From their humble beginning in 1908 to today, Our Lady's Holy Name Society has existed to honor His name. They continue to be a nucleus from which our present Pastor, Rev. Eugene Alves, can depend on for assistance in both spiritual and social activities. by Robert Alves �St. Vincent De Paul Society - a tradition of assistance to those in need The St. Vincent de Paul Society was founded in 1883 by Frederick Ozanam, a 20 year old student at Sorbonne University in Paris. Today the society of St. Vincent dePaul is a worldwide lay organization of young and old of every race and color, numbering 750,000 members, of whom 36,000 are Americans. The members meet in parish and district groups in order to help in a personal, confidential way, those in need. There would, however, be no St. Vincent Society without the generosity of our parishioners. The Conference president for many years here at Our Lady's is Mr. Richard Fioravanti, pictured below. Father Alves is the spiritual director of the group. Richard Fioravanti, President �History of the Guild of Our Lady by Alice Rose Krueger When the Reverend Stephen E. DeMoura came to Our Lady of Good Voyage Church, one of the first things he did was call for the women of the parish to form an organization to help him in knitting together the parish as a community unit. That call was answered in October 1944 by 85 women who crowded into the rectory. Fr. DeMoura was overwhelmed by the numbers and obtained immediate permission to transfer the meeting to the D.E.S. Hall across the street. Officers and a board of directors were elected with Dorothea Simmons as the first president. In five short months the Guild swelled to 285 members. The Guild of Our Lady in the year 1988 now numbers 170 members. The object of the Guild was to stimulate interest in the parish and to be of service to its pastor whenever possible. Immediately, the Guild instituted a perpetual round of affairs to help the new pastor financially and communitywise. Soirees were held every other month in the rectory for a while. Banquets were sponsored in conjunction with the Holy Name Society with Aunt Ellen Perry and her kitchen ladies preparing and serving the meals. The Guild and the Holy Name Society combined their efforts in holding "Lawn Parties;' now called, "Summer Fairs." One of these early lawn parties was held at Mattos Field for two days. From 1944 to 1951, the Guild sponsored an altar committee to attend to the linens and flowers for the altar of the church. From 1947 to 1954, "The Living Madonnas" were put on during the lenten season with Anna and Mary Silveira and Margaret Sears dyeing the materials, making the robes and draping the models so that they looked exactly like the paintings they portrayed. In a later lenten season Alice Rose Krueger produced "The Way of the Cross" with both Guild and Holy Name members participating. �At Eastertime, Aunt Ellen and her kitchen ladies made Portuguese sweetbread to be put on sale. These women also made the sweetbread for the Guild tables at the city merchants' Sidewalk Bazaars held in August of each year. One year the Guild put on an Hawaiian luau complete with a roasted pig. Fashion shows began in 1%5 and continued until 1982. These affairs became the paramount Spring social event of the city. One year a Fall fashion show was held at the estate of Marcia Pryor at Eastern Point. �Beginning in 1947, the Guild sponsored the city-wide Mardi Gras on Shrove Tuesday, first at the City Hall and then in 1951 at the Parish Hall. Many people in costume from all over the city attended these great extravaganzas with a king and queen, ladies-in-waiting, pages, and jesters. Among the kings and queens honored were the Honorable Benjamin Smith and wife, Mr. and Mrs. William G. Brown, Jr., Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Somers, and Mr. and Mrs. Norman "Nate" Ross. In the early days of the Guild and continuing for about ten years, public shows were directed and produced by Alice Rose Krueger with talented casts from the Guild membership. The first of the smash hits was ''The Stork Club Revue,'' followed by other theme revues and minstrel shows. One of the biggest was an antebellum theme show entitled, ''Mississippi,'' staged at the Gloucester High School Auditorium. �Many concerts were arranged at various times with our own parish talent entertaining. Pops concerts from 1972-75 were presented by members of the Cape Ann Symphony Orchestra. The annual installation banquets were held at the Surf in Magnolia, the Easterly Inn at Bass Rocks, the Tavern on the Boulevard, and the Rockaway Hotel at Rocky Neck. Among the distinguished speakers at these banquets were: Cardinal John J. Wright; the Rev. Francis X. Salloway (author and musician); the Most Rev. Lawrence Fitzsimmons, Bishop of Amarillo, Texas; the Most Rev. Miguel Dario Miranda y Gomez, Bishop of Tulancingo, Mexico; and the Rev. Thomas Carroll, Chaplain for the Blind. Other events in which the Guild assisted were the Annual Blessing of the Fleet, when it was Portuguese sponsored, and the yearly Crowning ceremonies of the Holy Name Society, as well as hosting the annual Advent Service instituted by the Rev. Eugene Alves in 1974. An annual "Day of Recollection" was started by the Guild in May 1981 for its members and any women of the parish who wish to participate. In April of 1984, the deteriorated exterior statue of Our Lady of Good Voyage, being replaced by a fiberglass replica, was presented to the Cape Ann Historical Association. At that time, the Association held its first ever heritage show, "Pioneers from the Azores." The Guild hosted the evening and provided traditional Portuguese foods. More than 700 people city-wide attended the event, the largest attendance ever at any function held by the Cape Ann Historical Association. All these customs and events sponsored by the Guild of Our Lady did not just happen. They were perpetuated by a group of hard-working women in a very active organization. It is their sincere hope that in the future, the women of the parish will continue to carry on the Guild of Our Lady with its work to further the glory of God and Our Lady's parish. Our Lady of Good Voyage Church Gloucester, Mass. �History of the Parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage by Alice Rose Krueger For three generations the Portuguese-American fleet out o' Gloucester played a prominent part in the fishing industry of New England and the United States. The men who manned this fleet have stood out as skilled, strong, daring, and religious. They were men who struggled through the gales of the North Atlantic in search of a livelihood for themselves and their families. Such a life makes a man and his family realize with singular intensity their absolute dependence on God for success in their work and for their safety. It was men and women of this type who made up the parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage. The influx of Portuguese people to Gloucester began as early as 1829. Most of the immigrants came from the rugged Azores Islands. By 1888 Gloucester was the home of about 200 families, one of the largest colonies of Portuguese on the East Coast of the United States. With no church building, these Portuguese people attended the St. Ann's Church. However, when the Rev. Joseph T. deSerpa, pastor of St. John the Baptist Church of the North End, Boston, would come to Gloucester for them, services in Portuguese were held at Pew's Hall on Howe Street. With Fr. deSerpa's encouragement, the Portuguese community petitioned the Boston See in 1888 for the establishment of a parish to be dedicated to Our Lady of Good Voyage. On September 27, 1889, · a lot ofland was purchased on Prospect Street, just at the outskirts of the Portuguese Hill settlement. A temporary building was erected on the newly purchased land for church services. In October 1889, Archbishop Williams of the Boston Diocese established the parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage. On December 1, 1890, the Rev. Francisco Viera DeBem, a newly ordained priest from Portugal, was officially appointed the first pastor. Although Fr. DeBem arrived in Gloucester from the Azores, he had been born in Boston, Massachusetts. When he was a mere infant, his folks left Boston and returned to their native Azores. To build a church was a considerable undertaking, but under the leadership of Fr. DeBem many different small events were held in the parish to raise funds. On November 18, 1890, a "Grand Fair" at the City Hall was opened by Mayor William W. French. The Gloucester National Band played while the Azorian men and women danced their colorful hoop and ribbon dances. The parish women sold their beautiful Fayal embroideries and laces. In the summertime, outdoor fairs and picnics were held as fund raisers. Finally, enough funds were gathered to begin the building of the wooden church. On July 9, 1893, the completed church was dedicated. The original building was a two-story white wooden structure with a single cross-topped tower. The second floor housed the main altar. The first floor held a slightly smaller altar and was used for children's Masses. 'OUR I.ADY◊~- GOOD VOYAGI::. CHURCH ' GL!>UCF..SH .. R. MAS::,. l .... .l WI II II ll �In 1902, Fr. DeBem officiated at a Portuguese celebration that was to become an annual event. In October of 1900, Captain Joseph P. Mesquita and the crew of the vessel, '' Mary P. Mesquita,'' had been saved from drowning when the Cunard steamer '' Saxonia' ' had rammed and sunk their fishing schooner in a heavy fog on the George's Banks of Newfoundland. So incredible had been the rescue that Captain Mesquita vowed to make the "Festival of the Crowning" a yearly event in his parish. This festival dates back to the 14th century when Queen Isabella of Portugal instituted the annual practice of crowning one of her subjects imperator for a day. The occasion was marked by prayer and special charity to the poor. A beautiful silver crown was fashioned in Portugal and blessed by Pope Leo XIII. It arrived in Gloucester in time for the first ceremony held in the Spring of 1902. Shortly after 8:30 on the morning of February 10, 1914, Elizabeth McShara, on her way to school, noticed smoke pouring from the entran.::e of the church and spread the alarm. By the time the fire department arrived, the interior of the church was a mass of flames . Shortly after 10:30 A.M., the great wooden cross fell from the tower and crashed through the roof. When recall was sounded at 12:20 P.M., the church was in ruins. �The ashes of the disaster were hardly cooled when plans were being made to rebuild. A committee headed by John Perry, with Mrs. Jennie Mitchell and Manuel Francis, as committee members, was appointed to begin the task of raising the necessary funds. Numerous business establishmentscqntributed to the fund, while lodges and clubs throughout the city held benefits. The parishioners were also aided by many individuals in the community, most notably by A. Piatt Andrew, a leading citizen of Gloucester. He persuaded his friends, Henry Dana Sleeper, the interior decorator, and Mrs. Isabelle Stewart Gardner, the Boston philanthropist, to help. Two other staunch friends of the church, James C. Farrell and his wife, Margaret Brady Farrell, added their support. It was not long before the funds were acquired. It was decided this time that the church structure would be of stone and modeled after churches in the Azores. After careful study of the churches in the Islands of Pico and San Miguel of the Azores, in the main, the lines of the new building would follow the Romanesque Church of the Magdalena in Pico. This sort of structure was wholly foreign to this part of the country, but it was planned with the idea of conferring to the congregation the f.amiliar features of the ''Old Country.'' Fr. DeBem, having dreamed of installing bells in the church at some time in the future, asked that two towers be built at the front corners of the structure. With the concept of what was wanted, a famous local architect, Halfdan M. Hanson, drew up the plans. It would be a Spanish Mission type building with a simple symmetrical and wellbalanced exterior. The plans were accepted by Er. DeBem and work was begun in April of 1914. ,, t'{ , '.>z ._; , OUR LACY OF GOOO V O Y AGE �A statue of Our Lady of Good Voyage, hand-carved in Oporto, Portugal, was donated by A. Piatt Andrew for installing on the pedestal between the two towers . The statue was 10 feet tall and stood on a base of waves, while a halo of power light encircled the head. A copper model of a fishing schooner was held by the right hand. Numerous and costly pieces of statuary were one of the distinct features of the interior of the church and attracted much attention. Nearly all were gifts from members of the parish or friendly outsiders who were interested in the welfare of the church. The handsome altar was secured mainly by the efforts of A. Piatt Andrew, who, with his friend Archer Huntington of New York, contributed handsomely. Mr. Andrew was also instrumental in obtaining a thousand-dollar contribution from the Carnegie Fund whereby it was possible to install the new organ. The church was fortunate to have the services of a local artist, Joseph Nunes, who restored some of the statuary that was recovered from the ruins of the fire. �Just a little more than one year after the calamitous fire, the new church was dedicated on May 23, 1915. Chance sometimes has greater influence on the course of events-and this was the case in the aftermath of the great church fire of 1914 and the subsequent building of the present structure in 1915. If the tragic fire had not destroyed the original building in 1914, it is rather certain that the first tuned cast-bell carillon in the United States would not have been in the Church of Our Lady of Good Voyage. When the new building was erected, the architecture included two bell towers in the hope of fulfilling the dream of Fr. DeBem of bells for the church. The good Father had in mind a set of 8 to 15 chime bells, popular in churches at that time. Fortunately, perhaps, lack of money and then the advent of World War I forestalled any installation of bells at Our Lady's. A. Piatt Andrew had travelled in Europe before World War I and during his visits had been exposed to the carillons of the Low Countries-Denmark and Belgium. Accordingly, when he returned to Gloucester after the Armistice (having been one of the organizers of the American Field Service Ambulance Corps in France), he suggested to Fr. DeBem the idea of a full chromatic set of bells for the tower of Our Lady of Good Voyage Church. A committee, headed by Manuel P. Domingos , and once again with the aid of now Congressman A. Piatt Andrew, Isabelle Stewart Gardner, Henry Davis Sleeper, and Mrs. Margaret Brady Farrell, raised funds to augment the sums Fr. DeBem had collected over the years from his parishioners toward his dream of the bells. The estimate of the cost of the bells and their installation was $15 ,000. By 1921 , the committee had raised $13,000 and it was decided to go ahead and order the bells, with the hope that the other $2,000 would be forthcoming in donations. The John Taylor & Company Foundry of Loughborough, England, (the same foundry that had cast the Liberty Bell of Philadelphia) was given the order to cast 25 bells. As they were cast, some of the bells were engraved around their heads with the names of those who had contributed much in money, time, and effort in securing them. In the middle of the anticipated realization of bs dream, in April 1921 , the Rev. Francisco Viera DeBem died. The bell with his name had already been cast and engraved. On learning of the death of the priest, 'the foundry inscribed "In Memoriam" above the engraved name. In February 1922, the bells arrived in Boston, but were promptly impounded by the U.S. Customs Office for payment of a 40% ($4,000) tariff applicable to musical instruments. �s 67T11 CONGRESS, 2oSr.81UON. • 1610 • JN 'l'.ll E HOUSE 0.F HE PHESEN 'l'A'l'l \· l~S.

Aucst: G.EOH GB A. SAN DEHSON, Secretar.11. Fr. DeBem had been succeeded by the Rev. Francisco G. Martins from Portugal. He appealed to the Hon. A. Piatt Andrew, who had been elected to his first term in Congress representing the Sixth Congressional District of Massachusetts. He immediately drafted a bill, his very first, to admit the bells, duty free, as works of art. Andrew's immediate predecessor from the Sixth District was Wilfred Lufkin, now the Collector of Customs in Boston. Together, the two men arranged to have the church designated as a bonded warehouse where the bells could be stored until Andrew's bill passed the Congress. Two months later President Harding signed the bill and little time was lost in completing the installation of the carillon in the north tower of the church. On July 2, 1922, the bells were blessed by William Cardinal O'Connell, head of the Boston See. On Sunday, July 23, 1922, the inaugural carillon recital was played by George B. Stevens, organist of the Gloucester Independent Christian (Universalist) Church. Monday's newspaper account placed the listening crowd at more than 5,000 people. On Wednesday, July 26, 1922, at noon, a special concert was played for Cardinal O'Connell, with one of his own musical compositions being rendered by Mr. Stevens. During the fund-raising campaign, the Hon. A. Piatt Andrew had written to John D. Rockefeller, Jr., petitioning him for a donation. Mr. Rockefeller declined but said the next time he was on his way to Seal Cove, Maine, in his yacht, he would stop and visit with Mr. Andrew. He happened to visit on the same Wednesday as the Cardinal O'Connell noon concert. So Mr. Stevens was called upon to give a second special concert at 2:00 P.M. for Mr. Rockefeller. Mr. Rockefeller was so pleased with the melodious tones and fine harmony of the bells that he gave Mr. Andrew a check for $500. This special concert in his honor influenced the Ford tycoon to install the largest set of carillon bells in the world in the Baptist Riverside Church in New York City. In 1923, the Taylor Foundry cast six more bells for Gloucester, bringing the total number of bells to 31. These were installed in the bell tower in 1924. In the summers of 1924 and 1925, A Piatt Andrew invited M. Anton Brees, world famous carillonneur, to be his house guest at Eastern Point and to play the carillon at Our Lady's on Wednesday nights. In 1925, M . Kamiel Lefevre, then assistant to Anton Brees at Mechelen Cathedral in Belgium, was engaged to play each Wednensday night for four months. Streets were blocked off around the church for these concerts and it is reputed that one of M. Lefevre's concerts drew an audience of over 10,000 people. In 1927, M. Lefevre came to New York as resident carillonneur for the Riverside Church where Rockefeller had installed his set of carillon bells, but he continued to play summer concerts in Gloucester. �Across the street from the church, Capt. Joseph P. Mesquita lived with his fiunily. His daughter, Mary, was a talented pianist and she undertook to play the carillons. She approached the clavier with some trepidation, but with a short course in familiarization with the carillon under the tutelage of M. Brees and M. Lefevre, she was successful and quickly became actively interested in the instrument. In her, the world, undoubtedly, had its first lady carillonneur. She continued to play the bells for 25 years. The concerts were brought to an end after the summer of 1934 when funds could no longer be raised for payment of the carillonneurs. Throughout the early years of the bells, Miss Mesquita continued to play regularly, even after the summer concerts by M. Lefevre were stopped. She realized that someone else should be trained to carry on the music and in 1946 Eugene L. Alves (now Fr. Alves), one of the church's altar boys became interested. Under her tutelage he served as carillonneur for about four years while attending high school. When he left for college, the carillon fell into nearly complete disuse. Now and then there was a special concert given by some guest recitalists, but for the most part the bells were silent. In the summer of 1955, at the invitation of Mons. Stephen E. DeMoura, Martin A. Gilman became the carillonneur for Our Lady of Good Voyage bells and continued recitals until 1975. In 1962, Edward E. Gammons, music instructor at the Groton School played Sunday evening summer concerts. After Mr. Gilman stopped his concerts, once more the bronze bells became silent sentinels. In 1985, the present pastor resumed the concerts on the traditional Wednesday nights under the management of Rev. Claudius Nowinski, music director and organist of Our Lady of Good Voyage Church at the time. The present resident carillonneur of Our Lady's bells is Mrs. Marilyn Clark. As the first pastor instituted the Portuguese Crowning Festival, so the Rt. Rev. Stephen E. DeMoura, the third pastor of the parish, instituted the Gloucester Blessing of the Fleet. �On Friday afternoon, May 23, 1945, a colorful religious procession, led by some 200 fishermen, marched from Our Lady of Good Voyage Church to the State Fish Pier, where a fleet of over 20 large draggers and sundry small vessels awaited the blessing by Archbishop Richard J. Cushing. This ceremony continued every year under the auspices of the Portuguese fishermen for more than ten years. The National Geographic Magazine, in its July 1953 issue, featured the Gloucester Blessing of the Fleet since the event had gained such national acclaim. After ten years, the Portuguese fleet had diminished to such an extent that these fishermen could no longer monetarily sponsor the event. However, the Italian fishermen took over since they had become the most numerous in the Gloucester fleet. In 1945, Mons. DeMoura had the church refurbished and the exterior statue taken down from its pedestal between the towers and repainted. In September 1945, Richard Cardinal Cushing visited the newly renovated church and designated it as ''The Shrine of the Fishermen.'' In March 1950, ground was broken and a Parish Hall was built adjacent to the rectory. It was named the "Stella Maris Hall" and on May 20, 1956, the mortgage on the building was discharged and burned in a ceremony in the hall. �Upon the death of Mons. DeMoura, the Rev. John J. Roach became pastor. In 1968 he authorized Roman J. Prybot, a liturgical artist, to redecorate the interior. New pews were installed and later the main altar, the altar rail, and many statues around the church were removed, in accordance with the new Concordat of Vatican II. On May 14, 1974, due to ill health, Fr. Roach retired. On that same day, His Eminence, Humberto Cardinal Medeiros, appointed the Rev. Eugene L. Alves Administrator of Our Lady's parish. The following year Fr. Alves had the church repainted in a more subdued and simplistic style. In June of 1976, restoration work had to be done on the main entrance. For years the pillars, doors and pediments (the triangular wood carvings over the doors) had been in need of repairvictims of weather from without and worms and dry rot from within. Local artist, Robert Nally, along with Rockport artist and carver, Robert Lee Perry, did the restoration work. In 1984, Fr. Alves had the exterior trim of the church repainted. At that time the workmen found extensive decay in Our Lady of Good Voyage statue. In December 1984, Our Lady was removed after more than 60 years on her lofty perch. At the recommendation of Lanesville sculptor, Walker Hancock, a polyester fiberglass reproduction was made by Robert Shure's Boston restoration firm. The new hollow, waterproof replica weighs a thousand pounds and the colors of the statue were added to the resin so that only the gold leaf will need to be renewed in the future. �At their request, the salvable upper half of the old statue was given to the Cape Ann Historical Association. It is now installed in their Fishermen's Room. In 1962, a former public school was acquired from the city by Mons. DeMoura for use as a Sunday school building. The Corpus Christi Carmelite nuns came to staff the school. A home at the top of Mr. Vernon Street, to be used as a convent, was purchased and presented to the church by Mrs. Margaret Farrell Lynch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Lynch who had so staunchly helped in the previous fund raisings . The Corpus Christi Carmelite nuns ended their mission here on July 3, 1973. Then the Sisters of St. Joseph came to Our Lady's to continue the work ofreligious education and they have remained to this day. The first wooden church structure had a smaller than lifesize statue of Our Lady of Good Voyage located above the main altar. The small statue had been carved in Oporto, Portugal. In the fire of 1914, this statue was enveloped in flames . After the holocaust, the only distinguishable part of the statue was one charred upright hand. Upon erection of the stucco building, two statues of Our Lady were acquired. A lifesize statue of the Virgin Mary, holding a crowned Christ child in one arm and a Portuguese-rigged fishing vessel in her other arm, was handcarved by craftsmen in Oporto again. This was placed in the apex of the altar. The second statue, a gift from A. Piatt Andrew, was a 10-foot statue of the Virgin with a model of a Gloucester schooner cradled in her left arm, with her right hand outstretched. This was the original statue raised between the two guardian towers of the newly constructed church and perched on the center pedestal for 61 years. When the church was redecorated in 1948, the statue atop the main altar had to be renewed. Once again a new order was sent to the craftsmen in Oporto. When it was ready, it was put aboard the " Gil Eannes," the hospital ship of the Portuguese Navy, and accompanied by the Portuguese Ambassador to the United States, and a bishop of the Portuguese church hierarchy, sailed for Gloucester. When the ship docked at Gloucester, with great fanfare, the statue was escorted to the church by the Portuguese fishermen. �In 1949, the Portuguese Ambassador personally presented to the church a silver model of the famous American schooner, "Columbia." This was installed in the righthand of the Virgin above the altar to replace the Portuguese-rigged model. The parish of Our Lady of Good Voyage has had only five pastors since its inception. The Rev. Francisco DeBem was appointed its first pastor in 1890. He died in 1921 before the bells he had worked so hard to obtain could be installed. In 1922, the Rev. Francisco Martins was appointed parish priest. He served from 1922 until his death in 1944. He was acclaimed as an orator, both in Portuguese and English. In 1939, Fr. Martins celebrated his 50th anniversary to the priesthood . At that time the Consul General of Portugal, Dr. Euclides Goulart de Costa, awarded Fr. Martins the "Military Order of Christ of Portugal.' ' This award is given for outstanding contributions to humanity. At the time Fr. Martins received the award, only four other Americans had ever been so distinguished. With the death of Fr. Martins, the Rev. Stephen E. DeMoura was named the third pastor. He had served many years of distinguished service in the nearby cities of Salem and Peabody. In 1954, while pastor of Our Lady of Good Voyage Church, Fr. DeMoura was elevated to the rank of Domestic Prelate by Pope Pius XII. Upon the death of Mons . DeMoura, in 1965, the Rev. John W. Roach was appointed pastor. On May 14, 1974, due to ill health, Fr. Roach retired. His Eminence, Humberto Cardinal Medeiros, then appointed the Rev. Eugene L. Alves as Administrator and he remained as such for nine years. Just before his death, Cardinal Medeiros appointed Fr. Alves pastor on August 1, 1983. Our Lady of Good Voyage Church has become such a unique place of worship due to the hard-working immigrant Portuguese community and its pastors, all of whom had such high hopes and dreams. Their impossible dreams have been accomplished over the years through the unending efforts of parishioners, with the help of many friends and munificent benefactors. The '' Shrine of the Fishermen,' ' with its distinctive appearance and commanding location on the hill above the harbor, has become a Gloucester landmark and a national mecca for tourists. ��T H E C H 0 u R F I L D R u T u N E E R Confirmation First Communion School of Religion Class �Christmas Pageant • Our Lady's Youth Group �DOWN MEMORY LANE When the boys came home.

Because the Church did not have a Youth Center at that time, the DES Club located across the street from the Church offered their lower hall as a meeting place for the troop. The young boys of the parish that joined the troop and were promoted from the Pack soon learned how to live by the rules of scouting which are contained in the Scout Oath, the Scout Law and the Scout Motto. They had to pledge their honor that they would do their best to God and country. They learned and lived the twelve points of the Scout Law, that they in fact would be: Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean and Reverent. To be reverent was taught and practiced by all under the guidance of Rev. Father Charles L. Sheehy, the troop's chaplain. Three scouts from Our Lady's Troop 3 were awarded the Ad Altare Dei Cros, the highest honor that the Catholic Church awards to Boy Scouts. They were Clifford Arvilla, Robert C. Alves and Narcisio Cecilio. �BENEFACTORS Reverend Eugene L. Alves A Friend Mr. & Mrs. Lloyd V. Carreiro Joseph M. Cody Mr. & Mrs. Herbert F. Collins Mr. & Mrs. William V.

His command raised up a stormy wind Which tossed its waves on high. They mounted up to heaven; to the depths they sank; Their.hearts melted away in their plight. They cried to the Lord in their distress; He rescued them from their plight . He hushed the storm to a gentle breeze, And the billows of the sea were stilled. They rejoiced that they were calmed; He brought them safely to their port. Let them give thanks to the Lord for his kindness And his wondrous deeds for the children of earth. �� Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
