Today, over one hundred Chicago-area Catholic churches offer Spanish language mass to congregants. How did the city's Mexican population, contained in just two parishes prior to 1960, come to reshape dozens of parishes and neighborhoods? Deborah E. Kanter tells the story of neighborhood change and rebirth in Chicago's Mexican American communities. She unveils a vibrant history of Mexican American and Mexican immigrant relations as remembered by laity and clergy, schoolchildren and their female religious teachers, parish athletes and coaches, European American neighbors, and from the immigrant women who organized as guadalupanas and their husbands who took part in the Holy Name Society. Kanter shows how the newly arrived mixed memories of home into learning the ways of Chicago to create new identities. In an ever-evolving city, Mexican immigrants and Mexican Americans’ fierce devotion to their churches transformed neighborhoods such as Pilsen. The first-ever study of Mexican-descent Catholicism in the city, Chicago Católico illuminates a previously unexplored facet of the urban past and provides present-day lessons for American communities undergoing ethnic integration and succession.

It began as the hobby of a lifelong Chicagoan. Twenty-five years and more than three hundred freehand church sketches later, it acts as an archive for centuries of architectural and religious history. The pen-and-ink drawings meticulously capture the details of each individual church down to the bullet holes Al Capone's hit men put in the façade of Holy Name Cathedral. The comprehensive collection also includes structures that were razed or repurposed, their memories lost save for the loyal parishioners who remember their roots. From St. Adalbert to St. Willibrord, Harrison Fillmore traces the unmistakable profiles of Chicago's Catholic churches into a single gallery of heartfelt art.

This Confident Church explores the neglected history of the Archdiocese of Chicago between the years of 1940 and 1965, chronicling the eras of Cardinals Samuel A. Stritch and Albert G. Meyer. According to Steven M. Avella, the "confidence" among the Catholics of Chicago - the largest archdiocese in the United States during this period - was derived from the prevailing neo-scholastic ideology of the time. Church leaders and social activists embracing this worldview embarked on massive institutional expansion and tackled serious social issues like the rights of labor, racial discrimination, the rise of communism, and urban decline with complete confidence in themselves and their abilities to affect society. The Stritch and Meyer administrations were marked by dynamic growth and change. Postwar mass migration of Catholics to the suburbs emptied the once prosperous urban churches and schools, and the preponderance of Catholic suburbanites altered the character of Chicago Catholicism. Changing neighborhoods, the growing African-American population of the city, and the need for a more professional and better-educated Catholic laity became key issues for the Chicago diocese. Avella weaves a fascinating portrait of the quality and nature of Catholic life during the 1950s, including lengthy sections on Bishop Bernard J. Sheil, founder of the Catholic Youth Organization and the Sheil School of Social Studies, and Monsignor Reynold Hillenbrand, whose enthusiasm for the liturgy and Catholic social thought motivated clergy and laity alike in seminary classes, labor schools, and summer schools of Catholic Action. This Confident Church provides a fascinating portrait of the Chicago church as it becamea training ground for a generation of young leaders imbued with a spirit that in many ways anticipated the Second Vatican Council.
