Description
An account of the resource
This collection includes documents related to the Escola Portuguesa de Cambridge & Somerville (Portuguese School of Cambridge & Somerville). This collection was created from a folder of papers donated by Armando Milheirão, who had worked for the school and is an active member of the Cambridge Portuguese community. These papers span from 1982-1985 and contain letters, photographs, event programs, board meeting minutes, class lists, student records, and other matters related to the students and history of the Escola Portuguesa de Cambridge & Somerville.<strong><br /><br />Historical Overview: </strong><br /><em>Information taken from the Escola Portuguesa de Cambridge & Somerville website. More information can be found on their page <a href="https://www.portugueseschool.org/our-school.html">here</a>.</em><br /><br />The Escola Portuguesa de Cambridge & Somerville, known originally as the Escola Portuguesa de Somerville, began as an idea after Dr. José Vitorino, the Secretary of State of Portugal, visited Somerville in 1982 and encouraged the community to create a school to teach Portuguese language and culture with the promise of financial aid for this mission.<br /> <br />The Executive Director of SPAL (Somerville Portuguese American League) at the time, Michael Bishop, held a public meeting with the local community, and community member Mrs. Angelina Costa took on the role of Chairman of the Parents Committee and as an extra-curricular teacher. Other teachers at the time included Mr. Armando Ferreira Milheirão and D. Maria Inês Gonçalves, who would later be replaced by D. Isabel Melo. Somerville classes officially started on October 12th, 1982 with 50 students, held temporarily on the premises of SPAL before moving to Lincoln Park Community School.<br /> <br />Simultaneously in 1982, Cambridge began to assemble a Portuguese School. Fr. José Ferreira, Mr. Amadeu Cruz da Quelha, and Dr. José Figueiredo, the then Board Director of COPA, created a public meeting at the Cambridge St. Anthony Church on July 17th, 1982. A formal school committee was eventually comprised of those three founders along with Mr. Antonio dos Anjos, and the Official Portuguese School in Cambridge began its operations on December 6th, 1982 at Cambridge's Harrington School. At the start, the school had 33 students. Mr. Amadeu Quelha served as the Chairman of the Parents and the two teachers included Mr. Antonio Fontes and Mrs. D. Nazare Teixeira. The school would eventually move to the newly completed premises of the St. Anthony's Church to accomodate for the lack of space in Harrington School.<br /><br />Space would continue to be a problem for both the schools in Somerville and Cambridge, and due to their proximity and their shared goals to create a stronger school system, the two schools merged in the May of 1985, becoming officialized by the Portuguese government under the name "Escola Oficial Portuguesa de Cambridge e Somerville, Inc." The school proudly hosted over 80 students, along with faculty members Mr. Sérgio Soares, D. Olga Silva, D. Angelina Costa, and Ligia Fontes, headed by the President of the school, Mr. Amadeu Quelha, until 1997.<br /><br />Today, the Escola Portuguesa de Cambridge e Somerville celebrates over 40 years of providing classes to individuals of all ages who are interested in studying the Portuguese language and culture. As of 2020, the Escola Portuguesa also offers virtual classes, and continues to grow their student enrollment every year

Carta do Presidente Geral
OPORTUNIDADE DE MAIOR UNIÃO
Prezados Consócios e Consócias:
Nem sempre aparecem oportunidades
de duas boas organizações se juntarem para formarem uma só, ainda
maior e melhor.
Essa oportunidade surge agora para
a nossa Sociedade.
Como é de conhecimento público, foram estabelecidas
negociações, para uma fusão ou união da nossa União
Portuguesa Continental ou Portuguese Continental Union
of USA, com a United National Life Insurance Company/
Luso-American Fraternal Federation, de Oakland California.
étnico para maior 1>0der de melhoramento, progresso, elevação, e prestígio social, educacional e económico desse
grupo, no nosso caso o grupo Luso-Americano.
Posso também assegurar aos nossos consócios e consúcias
que os seus interesses têm sido defendidos árduamente
por todos os membros da Comissão e da Direcção Geral
nas negociações em curso, e que o glorioso passado da
Sociedade continuará vivo e prúspero na organização
unida das duas Sociedades. Por esse motivo,.se um accordo for conseguido entre as duas Direcções, e vos for enviado, eu recomendo a vossa aprovação através dos votos
dos Delegados eleitos na Sucursal.
A bem da Sociedade e com amizade, sou,
A. Bernardo
Presidente Geral
A grandeza de números das duas organizações fraternais
e as vantagens para os sócios das duas Sociedades e da
Comunidade de Língua e Origens Portuguesas de todos os
Estados Unidos em geral, vão mencionadas na carta do
nosso Secretário Geral, publicada neste Boletim e enviada
a todas as Sucursais em 15 de Julho de 1991.
Da minha parte desejo informar todos os nossos sócios e
sócias, que como Presidente Geral e membro da Comissão
da nossa Sociedade nas negociações com a Comissão da
Sociedade da California, depois de muito pensar, cada vez
estou mais convencido que uma união de forças, números e recursos das duas organizações, trará grandes benefícios para todos os sócios e grande prestígio e poder para
a nossa Comunidade Luso-Americana.
Se faz sentido hoje em dia, juntarem-se organizações comerciais, incluíndo companhias de seguros, pequenas e
grandes, para formarem outras maiores, mais produtivas,
eficientes e competitivas, muito mais sentido faz ainda
juntarem-se organizações e forças dum determinado grupo
Comi.uão de negociaçõe.\· para fusão PCUUSA-UNLIS. faq.:

José Figueiredo (PCUUSA); Albert Viera, Anthony Bettencourt,

FUSÃO? P.C.U.U.S.A. - U.N.L.I.S. •
Se é certo que a união faz a força...
Então quanto maior for a união, . maior é a força.
A frase acima tanto se aplica a um agregado familiar,
como a um determinado grupo ou comunidade, cuja força
e poder estão na proporção de união de recursos, números e energias dos seus membros.
Vem esta introdução a propósito duma ideia ou iniciativa
de se unirem as maiores sociedades fraternais de raízes
portuguesas nas duas Costas dos Estados Unidos, ou
sejam a United National Life Insurance Society/ LusoAmerican Fraternal Federation na Costa Oeste, e a Portuguese Continental Union of the USA a maior na Costa
Leste, formando uma verdadeira organização fraternal
nacional da nossa Comunidade, aberta a outras sociedades fraternais que se queiram juntar e até mesmo à
Comunidade de Língua e Origens Portuguesas do Canadá
e outras Comunidades.
Duma união da UNLIS e PCUUSA resultará, se tal se
concretizar, uma organização poderosa e a mais representativa a nível nacional da nossa Comunidade étnica nos
Estados Unidos, com:
Mais de 21,000 associados;200 milhões de dólares
em certificados de seguros em vigor; 25 milhões de dólares de valores activos; 20 milhões de dólares em Reservas
e mais de cinco milhões de dólares em disponível (surplus); 150 sucursais/concelhos locais na Califórnia e nos
Estados da Costa Leste, com escritórios e empregados em
Oakland (Califórnia), Boston (Massachusetts) e sedes
locais e regionais em New Bedford, Attleboro, e Plymouth
(Mass); Newark e Harrison (NJ) e outras localidades.
Tal união fraternal, organizada em duas Divisões, a Divisão Leste com as Sucursais já existentes, e a Divisão
Oeste com os concelhos também já existentes, ficaria
licenciada logo de início nos Estados da Califórnia, Nevada, Idaho, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New
Jersey e Pennsyh'ania, e sócios em quase todos os estados.
Para os sócios vantagens de planos modernos de protecção e poupança, e grande organização dirigida
inteframente à defesa dos seus interesses e prestígio.
Outras vantagens seriam a unificação e maior eficiência
de recursos financeiros e administrativos e mais possibilidades de promoção de programas fraternais, sociais e
educacionais da Comunidade, a nível nacional.
Uma união das duas Sociedades tem de obedecer aos
seguintes requisitos legais:
a) Acordo preliminar entre as Direcções das duas
. Sociedades (já aprovado em princípio);
b) O texto da proposta de fusão ou união, terá de
ser enviado a todos os sócios das duas Sociedades antes
dos Congressos de Delegados das duas Sociedades;
c) O acm·do de fusão/união tem de ser aprovado
por pelo menos dois terços dos delegados de Congressos
das duas Sociedades;
d) Por último será necessária a aprovação dos
Comissariados de Seguros de Massachusetts e da Califórnia, com evidência de que os direitos e interesses dos
sócios das duas Sociedades são devidamente protegidos e
garantidos na organização nacional.
Só depois de cumpridas todas as condições acima pode a
união das duas Sociedades entrar em \'igor.
A UNLIS resultou da fusão em 1957 da Benevolent Society of California (fundada em 1868) e da Portuguese Continental Union of California (a "mãe" da nossa Sociedade,
fundada em 1917). A UPCEUA nasceu em 1925 em resultado da separação da Portuguese Continental Union of
California, em virtude das dificuldades de comunicação
então existentes (há 65 anos) e demora nos pagamentos
de benefícios aos sócios da Costa Leste. Hoje em dia com
os meios de comunicação quase instantâneos, e escritórios
e empregados permanentes nas duas Costas para servirem
os membros, a grande união nacional/fraternal da Comunidade pode e deve ser feita.

Oakland,CA. Foto: Na Sede Geral da PCUUSA em Boston.
Embora os contactos e negociações entre as duas Sociedades estejam ainda numa fase preliminar, resolveram as
suas Direcções, informar desde já todas as Sucursais/
Concelhos e sócios, da iniciativa em curso, agradecendose quaisquer comentários de sócios que se queiram manifestar sobre o assunto.

Famílias do Ano
---Informação Comunitária---

Title
A name given to the resource
Dimas Espinola Collection [1923-2009]
Description
An account of the resource
These items, collected over time by Dimas Espinola, detail the Portuguese community in Lowell from the 1920s through the 2000s. Items include Holy Ghost Society documents, newspaper articles, photographs, and event posters.
Biographical Note
Born on the Azorean island of Terceira, in the village of Biscoitos, in 1950; Dimas Espinola immigrated with his family to the United States in the late 1960s, settling in Lowell’s “Back Central” (predominately Portuguese) neighborhood; his father, formerly a furniture maker in Biscoitos, obtained a job as a loom fixer in the Wannalancit Mills; his mother worked in a shoe factory; Mr. Espinola received his formal education in schools on Terceira and, upon arriving in Lowell, he secured a work permit and, at nearly 17 years of age, he was employed in a manufacturing job in the Paris shoe factory on Bridge Street; at the same time Mr. Espinola, a communicant at St. Anthony’s Church, began working closely with the pastor, Rev. John F. deSilva; among his activities was translating English for Portuguese members of the community, which included various issues affecting the neighborhood, including a state proposed extension of the Lowell Connector highway that threatened many homes and businesses in the “Back Central” neighborhood; in addition to his community activism and work with the church, Mr. Espinola also became involved with the Portuguese-American Center (and its soccer team), as well as the Holy Ghost Society; he remained in the shoe industry for many years, becoming a foreman and factory manager.

Dear Father Silva:
I am writing to advise you that with the approval of your Bishop, Most
Reverend Augusto c. Alves Ferreira da Silva, C.M., and upon the recommendation
of Reverend William T. Schmidt, Secretary for Pastoral Services, I am ending
your appointment as Administrator at Saint Anthony Parish in Lowell.
I am
appointing you as Administrator at Saint Anthony Parish in Cambridge. The
effective date of this course of action is January 17, 1989. Saint Anthony
Parish is vacant due to the resignation of Reverend Jose S. Ferreira.
As you are aware, among your responsibilities as Administrator will be the
offering of the ''Missa pro populo" on those days on which that Mass is to be
offered.
It is my understanding that this assignment is made without any reference on
your part or the part of the Archdiocese to the matter of incardination.
In this capacity, you will have all the faculties of the Archdiocese of Boston
as outlined in the enclosed list of Faculties and you will have them for the
duration of your appointment as Administrator.
Please send written notification to Most Reverend Robert J. Banks, Vicar for
Administration, and Reverend James J. McCarthy, Clergy Personnel Director,
indicating that you have received this letter.
May God bless you in all your endeavors.
If I can be of assistance to you at .
any time, please do not hesitate to call on me.
With my warm personal regards and best wishes for you and all whom you serve
so well, I am,
Sincerely yours in Christ,
I4
