�ORIGINS OF THE FEAST OF THE HOLY GHOST
Wherever Azorean communities exist, the Festas Do Espirito Santo, The Feast of the Holy Ghost, are celebrated with great
devotion. Intense popular devotion to the Holy Ghost, uncommon in other Catholic countries, is profoundly central to the re ligious lives of
the Azorean people. The Holy Ghost, the third person of the Blessed Trinity in Roman Catholic theology, is considered to be almost a
separate deity in the Azores, where He is personified as a deified human being, and presented as a powerful male .

In the Azores, the symbol of the Holy Ghost, the "Coroa", a silver crown with a dove with outstretched wings on top, combines
the dove -- the traditional Catholic symbol of the Holy Ghost with the Portuguese imperial crown, a symbol of secular power and authority.
The configuration of religious activities appropriate to these Holy Ghost celebrations are specific to the Azores.
Many popular legends, told over and over during the celebrations, attribute the origins of these Festas to Saint Isabel , the wife of
King Dom Dinis, and Queen of Portugal from 1295 to 1322. Saint Isabel was born in the year 1271, and from her earliest years displayed a
deep faith and piety to God. From the time she married Dom Dinis until her death, she was revered throughout her kingdom for her acts of
charity, humility and devotion to her God and his people. She was known as "the angel of charity," by her subjects for her devotion to the
poor. She was also known as "the mother of peace." Because of her intervention in the hour of battle when she, unaccompanied, entered a
battlefield, and reconciled kings and princes thus ending the horror of war. After this great act of bravery and Christian love she returned to
her home village of Alenquer. One night, in a dream, a voice from Heaven proclaimed that Queen Isabel should establish a brotherhood of
the Holy Ghost in thanksgiving for the peace obtained and build a church in honor of the Holy Ghost in the village.
The next morning the Queen attended Mass and during the Mass a vision appeared to ~er, further detailing the plans for the project
she had seen in her dreams. Immediately, she met with the carpenters and workmen to begin work on the project and headed for the site
indicated to her in her dreams. Miraculously, when they reached the designated site they found the foundation already formed and the plan
of the building in outline. This unexplainable event was witnessed by her husband, the King, and the entire village of Alenquer.
During the period of construction many miracles occurred, a sign that the work was divinely inspired. The work was rapidly
completed and stands today as one of the most beautiful and richest chapels of the Holy Spirit in the world. The King ordered that the most
precious and costly vestments and furnishings be used in the chapel and, with great pomp and solemnity, the first Mass was celebrated in the
chapel on Pentecost Sunday. On th at day the sovereigns instituted the Brotherhood of the Holy Ghost" to insure that until the end of time
there should never cease to exist the devotion to the Holy Ghost in the beautiful sanctuary in Alenquer. A solemn procession was part of
that fi rst celebration, in which th e entire court and nobility took part. Games, tournaments and bullfights were part of the festivities. One of
the statutes of the original brotherhood was that seven bulls highly orna mented, should be run and their meat, together with a loaf of bread
would be distributed to the poor. Since that day, throughout these many centuries, the feast of the Holy Ghost has been celebrated in
Alenquer with great devotion and festivities.
Queen Isabel returned to the ch urch in Alenquer every year to offer a great candle which burned before the main altar during the
octave of Pentecost. When a great famine and epidemic occurred in Lisbon and surrounding areas, including Alenquer, and many people
were dying daily, a great penitential procession was held, during which the candle offered by the Queen was carried and immediately the
epidemic began to diminish until it ended entirely.
During the Pentecost season the Queen, as an act of humility, would wash the linens of the sick and poor of the village of
Alenquer, in the local river. Many people witnessed this great act of devotion, and after her death the river was venerated and the waters
were known to possess miraculous curative powers.
Many miracles were attributed to Queen Isabel following her death on July 4, 1336. After her death, steps were taken to have
Queen Isabel canonized a saint. On June 1, 1616 Pope Paul IV declared her blessed and gave permission to the people of Portugal to carry
her crown and relics through the streets in solemn procession. From this original crown, worn by St. Isabel , have been fashioned the many
crowns now in existence. Made of pure silver, they have on them the symbol of the Hol y Ghost, in the form of a dove on the top of the
crown and on the sceptre, in memory of her great devotion to the third person of the blessed trinity.
Over the years, many miracles were attributed to Queen Isabel , two of which were ex perienced by Pope Urbano Ill. On May 25 ,
1625, Trinity Sunday, Pope Urbano Ill canonized Queen Isabel a saint.
From the origina l brotherhood of the Holy Ghost, formed in Alenquer, there have been many brotherhoods established throughout
the world wherever Azorean people have immigrated. Splendid feasts are planned -- meat and bread are distributed to the poor and
members of the brotherhoods, solemn religious observances are held, members of the brotherhood are crowned in solemn ceremonies in the
church and the day is spent feasting and rejoicing for the many blessings received from the Holy Ghost.
Beginning at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century when the Azorean people started comi ng to this country,
they brought with them the traditi on of the feasts of the Holy Ghosts. Since the arrival of the Portuguese people in Lowell, Massachusetts,
feasts have been held . The Holy Ghost Society, Inc. was officia lly established 75 years ago on August 24, J 923.
The purpose of the Holy Ghost Society was to furnish a place and means for the education and recreation of its members and for
the social, re ligious and civic purposes among it's members. With the initial purchase of two and one half acres of land, th e society had a
home. Over the years, the society has improved its facilities until now, where a beautiful hall and outdoor area is avai lable for the society to
celebrate with great dignity the Feasts of the Holy Ghost.
For seve nty five years the Holy Ghost has blessed and guided the Q1embers of the society and their families. We give th anks on
this great milestone in the life of the society for the love of the Holy Ghost and ask for hi s continu ed blessings in th e future .

                  <text>&lt;strong&gt;Historical Overview:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By 1905, Lowell had nearly 1,000 Portuguese immigrants, the majority having been born in the Azores. Most lived in the vicinity of Charles Street in the “Back Central” neighborhood, which was home to St. Anthony’s Church and a number of Portuguese social and religious societies. Among the more prominent was the Holy Ghost Society, founded in 1907, by a group of Azorean immigrants. Rev. Joaquim V. da Rosa, from the island of Pico and the first pastor of St. Anthony’s, supported the Society’s establishment. The following year Fr. Rosa performed the Solemn Sunday Mass and coronation for the first Holy Ghost Festival in the city. A large procession with a band streamed down Central Street to a public hall where an overflowing crowd enjoyed sumptuous feast and beheld the finely crafted silver crown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the first decade membership in the Holy Ghost Society grew. Although the annual Holy Ghost Festival, held on Pentecost Sunday, was the major event sponsored by the Society, members engaged in a variety of religious and social activities, including concerts and dances. By the mid-1910s the Holy Ghost Society had amassed sufficient funds to maintain a headquarters in the Odd Fellows Hall on Middlesex Street. In 1924, seeking a larger space for its many activities, the Society, which had incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts a year earlier, purchased over four acres of land on Village Street on the outskirts of Lowell. Over the years, the Holy Ghost grounds featured a clubhouse with a large hall, an amphitheater, a playground, and a soccer field. Although Azoreans continued to be the largest group within the Society, Portuguese from Madeira, mainland Portugal, and Brazil had become members and several served in leadership roles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beginning in 1959, Lowell’s Holy Ghost Society adopted a common practice at other Holy Ghost Festivals in the United States, the coronation of a queen, representing the Queen Saint Isabel, and the selection of two queen’s maids, all young women between the ages of 16 and 21. In addition to the coronation, the queen and her maids were a prominent part of the procession, standing on top of a colorfully decorated float, often towed, as was the popular custom, by a new convertible automobile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In its early years, the Holy Ghost Society was led exclusively by Portuguese men, some who worked in factories and others who ran small businesses. Nonetheless, female members planned many annual activities and special events as participants in a ladies’ auxiliary. Beginning in the 1940s, however, women served as officers and presidents. The first female president, Clara (Silva) Correia, had immigrated from Graciosa, settled in Lowell in 1905, and had worked many years as a weaver in a textile mill. She was succeeded as president some years later by one of the best known members of the Society, Gladys (Mendonça) Picanso, a community activist who owned a popular hairstyling business in Lowell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Holy Ghost Society continues to sponsor the annual Holy Ghost Festival, along with other events and charitable activities. Many of these are held at Holy Ghost Park on Village Street. But these events, whether they are concerts, dances, or sporting and recreational games, some of which include non-Portuguese participants, exhibit a distinctly Portuguese flair.</text>

                <text>Wherever Azorean communities exist, the Festas Do Espirito Santo, The Feast of the Holy Ghost, are celebrated with great devotion. Intense popular devotion to the Holy Ghost, uncommon in other Catholic countries, is profoundly central to the religious lives of the Azorean people. The Holy Ghost, the third person of the Blessed Trinity in Roman Catholic theology, is considered to be almost a separate deity in the Azores, where He is personified as a deified human being.&#13;
&#13;
This booklet celebrates the 75th anniversary of the Holy Ghost Society in Lowell, MA, which is connected with St. Anthony's Church. The Society also owns a physical space where events are held.</text>

BOSTON

A celebracão da Beleza Feminina será, talvez, a melhor
forma de darmos início a estas Comemoracóes do Dia de Portugal,
de Camoés e das Comunidades Portuguesas. '
Mas, mais do que a beleza física da Mulher Portuguesa e
Luso-Americana
por natureza das coisas,
beleza efémera e
passageira com este concurso para a eleiç:ão da "Miss Dia de
Portugal,
1996" celebramos, sobretudo, .a
Beleza da Juventude,
aquela Beleza permanentemente renovada em cada nova geracao.
Simultaneamente, com a eleiçá-o da "Miss Cultura" - a
que o Consulado-Geral particularmente se associa - honramos
tambe'm a Beleza Interior, a Beleza do Conhecimento, a Beleza da
Cul-tura.
Também para nós - Mulheres e Homens para quem o passar
dos tempos nos nao permite mais aceitar estes desafios - esta é
igualmente
uma
grande
oportunidade
de,
em
convívio e
confraternizacão, expressarmos a nossa Alegria e de manifestarmos
o quanto nos Honra a nossa origem Portuguesa.
Que outros podera-o reclamar descenderem dos "varo-es
assinalados" que "por mares nunca dantes navegados/ passaram
ainda além da Taprobana", como cantava Camões, que outros poderão
reivindicar terem os seus antepassados dado "novos mundos ao
Mundo"?

' As concorrentes - e a todas as outras Jovens da nossa
Comunidade dirijo os meus votos de maiores sucessos, aqui e
agora e nas suas vidas particulares:
que7 ao longo do vosso
futuro, na vida familiar e na vida profissional - dignas, activas
e participantes - s~ibam sempre manter bem alto o Orgulho nas
nossas Raízes Portuguesas.

                  <text>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.&#13;
&#13;
Biographical Note&#13;
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.&#13;
