He completed his studies and was ordained for the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Le_Mans" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Le Mans">Diocese of Le Mans</a> in 1821. The French government continued to work for the removal of the Church from the educational system, which left many Catholics without a place to be educated or catechized.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1835, Moreau had formed a group, which he called "Auxiliary Priests", to serve the educational and evangelization needs of the Diocese of Le Mans. </p><p>On July 15, 1820, a priest of the Diocese of Le Mans, <a href="/wiki/Jacques-Francois_Dujari%C3%A9" class="mw-redirect" title="Jacques-Francois Dujarié">Jacques-Francois Dujarié</a>, brought together a group of zealous men to serve the educational needs of the people in the French countryside.<sup id="cite_ref-chc_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-chc-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Fr. Dujarié named this group the Brothers of <a href="/wiki/Saint_Joseph" title="Saint Joseph">St. Joseph</a>. By 1835 this group was well established in the diocese, but Dujarié was getting older and they were in need of a new leader. Dujarié and Moreau had met previously and discussed their views on the future of the Church in France and so Dujarié knew that Moreau was just the man he was looking for. With the consent of the bishop, Moreau was given control of the Brothers of St. Joseph on August 31, 1835. He was now the head of two organizations, the Auxiliary Priests and the Brothers of St. Joseph. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Association_of_Holy_Cross">The Association of Holy Cross</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Congregation_of_Holy_Cross&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: The Association of Holy Cross"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1837, Moreau made the decision to combine his two communities into one society so that the priests and brothers could share resources and ministries in common.<sup id="cite_ref-chc_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-chc-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On March 1, 1837, the priests and brothers gathered in the church of <a href="/wiki/Notre_Dame_de_Sainte_Croix,_Le_Mans" title="Notre Dame de Sainte Croix, Le Mans">Notre-Dame de Sainte-Croix, Le Mans</a> in the Sainte-Croix district of <a href="/wiki/Le_Mans" title="Le Mans">Le Mans</a> to sign the Fundamental Act of Union which legally joined them into one association. This new group took on the name of where they met and became the Association of Holy Cross. Initially Holy Cross was a diocesan group and so they primarily served in whatever capacity the bishop asked of them. In 1840 this changed when Moreau received a request to send a delegation from his society to <a href="/wiki/Algeria" title="Algeria">Algeria</a> with the purpose of establishing schools and a seminary. It was at this point that Moreau shifted the focus of Holy Cross and after the first missionaries left in April 1840 the association took on the identity of a <a href="/wiki/Religious_institute" title="Religious institute">religious institute</a>. On August 15, 1840, Moreau and four others became the first professed religious in the Association of Holy Cross. As part of his plan to form this religious institute, Moreau also brought together the first group of women who would become the Marianites of Holy Cross. </p><p>In 1841 he sent a group to the <a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States">United States</a>, establishing the first Holy Cross institution in <a href="/wiki/North_America" title="North America">North America</a> at <a href="/wiki/University_of_Notre_Dame" title="University of Notre Dame">Notre Dame</a>, <a href="/wiki/Indiana" title="Indiana">Indiana</a>.

From that point on the Association officially became the Congregation of Holy Cross. Doubting the propriety of a mixed congregation of men and women, Rome separated the women into an independent community at that time. Moreau, in his role as their founder, continued to work for Rome's approval of the sisters' constitution. In 1865, Rome approved the constitutions of the <a href="/wiki/Marianites_of_Holy_Cross" title="Marianites of Holy Cross">Marianites of Holy Cross</a>, granting them the status of an Apostolic congregation. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Holy_Cross_and_The_Holy_Family">Holy Cross and The Holy Family</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Congregation_of_Holy_Cross&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Holy Cross and The Holy Family"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG/150px-Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG" decoding="async" width="150" height="111" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG/225px-Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG/300px-Saint_joseph_oratory_montreal_2010t.JPG 2x" data-file-width="3483" data-file-height="2579" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Saint_Joseph%27s_Oratory" title="Saint Joseph's Oratory">St. Joseph's Oratory</a> in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.</figcaption></figure> <p>Moreau saw a visible image of the <a href="/wiki/Holy_Family" title="Holy Family">Holy Family</a> in this Congregation of Holy Cross which he had conceived as an association of religious men and women working together on equal footing for the building of the reign of God.

It was composed of three brothers, three sisters, one <a href="/wiki/Catholic_priest" class="mw-redirect" title="Catholic priest">priest</a> and one seminarian. (Two priests dropped out due to severe illness when the first attempt to sail in November 1852 failed due to storms.) The group arrived in <a href="/wiki/Kolkata" title="Kolkata">Calcutta</a> in May 1853. Fr. Verite took the sisters to <a href="/wiki/Dhaka" title="Dhaka">Dhaka</a>, while the brothers and seminarian went to <a href="/wiki/Noakhali" class="mw-redirect" title="Noakhali">Noakhali</a>. Fr.

Because it was such a difficult and dangerous place to live and work, no other religious congregation showed any interest in it. Though the mission was named East Bengal, the Church jurisdiction and the political territory or civil jurisdiction called East Bengal were quite different from each other. The Province of East Bengal was first created in 1905. The Church territory was officially called the <a href="/wiki/Vicariate" class="mw-redirect" title="Vicariate">Vicariate</a> of East Bengal, set up in 1845 by the <a href="/wiki/Congregation_for_the_Evangelization_of_Peoples" title="Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples">Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Holy_See" title="Holy See">Vatican</a>. Its first superior was Bishop Thomas Olliffe, an Irish <a href="/wiki/Society_of_Jesus" class="mw-redirect" title="Society of Jesus">Jesuit</a>. The Vicariate of East Bengal embraced the present-day <a href="/wiki/Archdiocese_of_Dhaka" class="mw-redirect" title="Archdiocese of Dhaka">Archdiocese of Dhaka</a>, <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Mymensingh" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Mymensingh">Diocese of Mymensingh</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Chittagong" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Chittagong">Diocese of Chittagong</a>, as well as a large part of <a href="/wiki/Assam" title="Assam">Assam</a>, the Arakan district (former name of the <a href="/wiki/Rakhine_State" title="Rakhine State">Rakhine State</a> of western <a href="/wiki/Burma" class="mw-redirect" title="Burma">Burma</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Agartala" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Agartala">Diocese of Agartala</a> in eastern India. It was a huge area, but when Holy Cross arrived in 1853, there were only three <a href="/wiki/Catholic_priest" class="mw-redirect" title="Catholic priest">priests</a> working there - a Portuguese <a href="/wiki/Augustinians" title="Augustinians">Augustinian</a> and two young Irish <a href="/wiki/Diocesan_priest" class="mw-redirect" title="Diocesan priest">diocesan priests</a>, both of whom were dead of disease by 1854. There were about 13,000 Catholics in the area.

Three Holy Cross religious arrived in Santiago, Chile, on March 1, 1943, at the invitation of Cardinal <a href="/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Mar%C3%ADa_Caro_Rodr%C3%ADguez" title="José María Caro Rodríguez">José María Caro</a>, <a href="/wiki/Archbishop_of_Santiago_(Chile)" class="mw-redirect" title="Archbishop of Santiago (Chile)">Archbishop of Santiago (Chile)</a>, to administer <a href="/wiki/Saint_George%27s_College,_Santiago" title="Saint George's College, Santiago">Saint George's College</a>. Fathers William Havey, Alfred Send, and Joseph Dougherty believed they were going to do university work. Little did they know that "college" in this context meant a school of first through 12th graders. </p><p>Today, Saint George's College serves 2,650 students. Its history is rich and is closely tied with the history of Chile, including the 1970s when the school was taken over by the <a href="/wiki/1973_Chilean_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat" title="1973 Chilean coup d'état">military government</a> and Holy Cross was ousted. The Congregation returned to the school in 1986. Strong faith formation and service have been a hallmark of Saint George's. Over the decades, the college has formed many influential leaders in Chilean society. Also Holy Cross' first Chilean vocation, Fr. Jorge Canepa, was a 1946 graduate of the school. </p><p>Additionally, the District administers <a href="/wiki/Colegio_de_Nuestra_Senora_de_Andacollo_(Santiago)" class="mw-redirect" title="Colegio de Nuestra Senora de Andacollo (Santiago)">Colegio Nuestra Señora de Andacollo</a>, located in the older sector of Central Santiago. The Congregation took responsibility for the school in the 1970s, after its expulsion from Saint George's. The student body, numbering 1,100, is made up primarily of children from working-class families. With improvements to the physical plant and the strong Holy Cross commitment, the school has been able to reach new heights academically. </p><p>From the beginning, the mission of Holy Cross in Chile also included parish ministry and social service. Within three years of arriving, the Congregation had begun both its ministry at San Roque, a parish in the sector of Penalolen in Santiago, as well as its outreach to abandoned children in Santiago and later in Talagante. Today, the District administers two parishes in addition to San Roque: <a href="/wiki/Parroquia_Nuestra_Se%C3%B1ora_de_Andacollo,_Santiago" title="Parroquia Nuestra Señora de Andacollo, Santiago">Nuestra Señora de Andacollo</a>, in the same area as the school; and Nuestra Señora de la Merced, in Calle Larga, in the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_San_Felipe,_Chile" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of San Felipe, Chile">Diocese of San Felipe</a>. The parishes are known for their youth ministry and social justice work. Then through Fundamor and Fundación Moreau, the District continues its work with abandoned children. Currently there are approximately 50 children in residence, ages 4 to 18. There is also a new prevention program ministering to 100 children that has been recognized as the first of its kind in Chile.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Mission_of_Holy_Cross_in_Mexico">The Mission of Holy Cross in Mexico</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Congregation_of_Holy_Cross&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: The Mission of Holy Cross in Mexico"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Initially the members of the Congregation of Holy Cross were sent to Mexico from Texas. In 1972, Fr. Frederick Schmidt, CSC, was sent to Mexico for a "sabbatical" by Fr. Christopher O'Toole, CSC, the Provincial of the Southern Province at the time. In 1973 Fr. Fred assumed the pastoral responsibility for a large parish in Ahuacatlan, <a href="/wiki/San_Luis_Potos%C3%AD" title="San Luis Potosí">San Luis Potosí</a>, Nuestro Padre Jesús. He served as pastor for 25 years. In 1998 when Fr. Francisco Garcia, a priest from the Diocese of Ciudad Valles, was appointed pastor, Fr. Fred became the pastor emeritus. When Fr. Schmidt died in 2003, he was buried at the parish in the crypt of the convent church that he helped build. With his death, Holy Cross withdrew from this parish, although one of its members has become a Holy Cross priest. The relationship with the parish and pastor continues to be one of friendship and Holy Cross offers occasional assistance. </p><p>In 1987, the Southern Province assumed the responsibility for the pastoral care of Santo Tomas Moro parish in the Archdiocese of Monterrey, Nuevo León. The parish grew dramatically and eventually gave birth to a new parish, Nuestra Madre Santisima de La Luz. Holy Cross opted to shift from Santo Tomas Moro to this new parish with greater needs. Holy Cross continues to serve this community. </p><p>In 1993 the Southern Province founded a program of vocation promotion and initial formation for young Mexican men who believe they are called to religious life and priesthood in Holy Cross. The Southern Province established a program for postulants and a program for professed seminarians. The novitiate for the formation program is in Peru. </p><p>In 1999, <a href="/wiki/Family_Rosary_Crusade" title="Family Rosary Crusade">Holy Cross Family Ministries</a> founded Family Rosary in México. Their offices and meeting rooms are located in an Archdiocesan pastoral center in San Francisco Javier parish, close to La Luz parish in the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Monterrey" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Monterrey">Archdiocese of Monterrey</a>. Their offices serve as a "hub" for the growing Holy Cross apostolate of fostering family prayer, especially the rosary, as well as devotion to Mary throughout Mexico. </p><p>In 2000, the local Holy Cross community in Monterrey established an immersion program at La Luz parish. This program provides an intercultural experience of life and ministry with and for the poor. It is offered principally to students from Holy Cross universities, high schools, and parishes in the United States. One group of Chilean laywomen also participated. The program has been temporarily suspended due to the wave of violence in Mexico. </p><p>In 2010, Fr. Marín Hernández, CSC, and Fr. Paulino Antonio, CSC, the first two Mexicans to be ordained as Holy Cross priests, were assigned to Parroquia San José in Tamán, San Luis Potosí. The Bishop of the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Ciudad_Valles" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Ciudad Valles">Diocese of Ciudad Valles</a> offered this parish to Holy Cross in part because of the indigenous community's need for pastoral care and evangelization. Frs. Hernández and Antonio speak <a href="/wiki/Nahuatl" title="Nahuatl">Nahuatl</a>, the language of the people, and Fr. Antonio comes from this indigenous group. </p><p>In 2011 the Holy Cross community in Mexico became a part of the newly formed U.S. Province of Priests and Brothers.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Mission_of_Holy_Cross_in_Peru">The Mission of Holy Cross in Peru</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Congregation_of_Holy_Cross&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: The Mission of Holy Cross in Peru"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The mission of Holy Cross in Peru began with an exhortation of <a href="/wiki/Pope_John_XXIII" title="Pope John XXIII">Pope John XXIII</a> to religious orders to send missionaries to Latin America, and Holy Cross arrived in the north of Peru in <a href="/wiki/Cartavio,_Peru" title="Cartavio, Peru">Cartavio</a> in September 1963.

The parish, El Señor de la Esperanza, is about the size of a small diocese in the U.S. Approximately 250,000 Catholics live in a parish that has 19 chapels. In 1982, within the boundaries of Lord of Hope Parish in Canto Grande, the Congregation established "Yancana Huasy" (literally "House of Work" in the language of the Incas). Yancana Huasy attends to the needs of children who live with physical and mental challenges, including Downs' Syndrome, and their families. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Mission_of_Holy_Cross_in_Uganda">The Mission of Holy Cross in Uganda</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Congregation_of_Holy_Cross&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: The Mission of Holy Cross in Uganda"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In November 1958, four Holy Cross priests arrived in <a href="/wiki/Entebbe,_Uganda" class="mw-redirect" title="Entebbe, Uganda">Entebbe, Uganda</a> to begin their ministry. The dioceses of Toro and Bunyoro were too large for the bishop to handle. He granted Holy Cross permission to minister to the people of Fort Portal and Butiti. Soon thereafter Holy Cross began administrating St. Leo's College, a high school in Kyegobe, Fort Portal diocese. Near Christmas of 1960, Holy Cross began its first parish at Bukwali. Around the end of February 1961, Cardinal <a href="/wiki/Gregorio_Pietro_Agagianian" title="Gregorio Pietro Agagianian">Agaginian</a>, the Armenian Patriarch at the time, told Fr. Christopher O'Toole, CSC, the superior general of Holy Cross, that missionary <a href="/wiki/Vincent_J._McCauley" title="Vincent J. McCauley">Vincent J.

In 1967, a house, and later novitiate (in 1984), was built on the shores of Lake Saaka in Fort Portal. During the military dictatorship of <a href="/wiki/Idi_Amin" title="Idi Amin">Idi Amin</a>, the Congregation decided at one point to leave the Diocese of Fort Portal. This proposal was later abandoned. Bishop McCauley died on November 1, 1982. </p><p>By 1962, the institute had begun accepting Ugandan religious aspirants to the community. Along with other religious institutes, they began a seminary in Kenya called Tangaza in 1986. By 1989, Holy Cross and a consortium of religious congregations and societies established the Queen of Apostles Philosophy Centre in the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Jinja" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Jinja">Roman Catholic Diocese of Jinja</a> ("PCJ") due largely to the political crises between Kenya and Uganda.

Fulgens Katende. Five Holy Cross Brother's and one priest died in <a href="/wiki/Rwandan_genocide" title="Rwandan genocide">the genocide of 1994</a>.
