Sitting on a hill overlooking the community of Schnellville, Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church stands in the middle of the rural and unique township of Schnellville, Indiana. Most often referred as Sacred Heart, the church is the most visible and prominent building in Schnellville. Many Catholic churches located in Dubois County boast standing more than 100 years including the following: St. Anthony Church in St. Anthony, St. Ferdinand Church in Ferdinand, St. Mary Church in Ireland, St. Joseph Church in Jasper, and St. Henry Church in St. Henry. Since Schnellville received its first parish in 1874, Sacred Heart Catholic Church has endured and grown through two fires in 1898 and 2003, a complete renovation in 1914, numerous priests, and …show more content…
Anthony or St. Celestine. Because of the great distance to travel, the people of Schnellville wanted their own church. (“2 Schnellville” 12) Marvin Welp, an elderly member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, states, “There were a lot of businesses. They wanted their own church and did not want to travel too far” (Welp 1). Bishop de St. Palais came to Dubois County in November of 1873 to celebrate Confirmation in Ferdinand; in order to receive a parish in Schnellville, a committee of men went to Ferdinand to petition Bishop de St. Palais. Taking the longest and most rugged of the three possible routes, the committee brought Bishop St. de Palais to Schnellville. As they had hoped, the bad roads influenced Bishop de St. Palais, and he felt sorry for the little town. (Striegel 11; “3 Schnellville” 11) More so, in order to build a church in Schnellville, Father Broening--pastor of St. Celestine--had to give his consent to start a church in Schnellville; Father Broening agreed by writing a letter and hope for a parish began in Schnellville. (“1 Schnellville” 13) Finally, Bishop de St. Palais gave his permission for the creation of Sacred Heart Catholic Church on November 10, 1873 (“2 Schnellville” 12). After only one year of planning, a journey to build Sacred Heart …show more content…
Immediately after Moll retired, Reverend Francis Mellen served as pastor from 1952 to 1953. (“3 Schnellville” 17-18) Sacred Heart acquired a new interior by redecorating in 1955 (“1 Schnellville” 14). Monsignor Othmar Schroeder served as pastor from 1975 to 1988. Then, from 1988 to 1998, Reverend Firmus Dick took over Schnellville. (“1 Schnellville” 18) From 1998 to 2005, Father Ralph Schipp served as the pastor of Sacred Heart (Striegel 18).
In 2003, Sacred Heart had its second fire. A couple of kids playing with matches had generated the fire by lighting pieces of paper. Luckily, it did not create an actual fire; however, the flames did produce an immense amount of smoke damaged behind the back altar. (Striegel 15) The only documented loss of property in the fire included several altar cloths, but the church had no use for them anymore (Welp 1). In 2005, after Schipp retired, Father Timothy Tenbarge, served as the pastor for both churches. On December 5, 2013, Reverend Michael Madden served as Sacred Heart and St. Anthony churches. (Striegel
The original church was built in 1804 and was for both white men and Indians alike. The first preacher was Joseph Brady who was pastor for 17 years. It wasn't a greatly populated area but people came from miles around for the services. As the settlement grew so did the congregation and they soon built a new church on High Street in 1841. Even with the main church there were still occasional services held in the old one until is was blown down by a storm in 1866 (Hein, 957).

It was during Father Fourcade's pastorate that St. Joseph Benedictine was separated from Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish, and Rev. Edwin Gubler became pastor of St. Joseph. Revs. Bernard Kramer, F.X. Sarbinowski, James M. McCarthy, and E. John Babin served as assistant, associate, or visiting pastors in 1946. From 1946-1948, Rev. John J. Bendix served the community as an assistant pastor.
Currently, the outside of the church stands with bricks that originated from Huntingburg, Indiana and then shipped to Mentor, Indiana (Welp 1; Striegel 13). The second church laid its cornerstone on June 21, 1914. The church appointed Louis Wessbecher as the architect. The church assigned Bernard Tonnies, from eastern St. Louis, to become the contractor. For all the materials and labor, the grand total cost of the church would come out of twenty-five thousand dollars. (Striegel 14) The height and length of the church measured sixty feet wide and one hundred and twenty-six feet long. At the top of a one hundred and twenty- five feet tower, a seventeen foot gilded cross stood. The capacity of the church can hold up to seven hundred fifty people. (“Schnellville 1” 13) Sacred Heart secured its completion in October of 1916 (“Schnellville 2” 15). The original frame structure stood until replaced by the present brick and limestone in 1916. Acclaimed on Easter Sunday of 1916, the first mass began. (“Schnellville 3” 12) From 1950 to 1952 Reverend Lawrence Moll became the pastor of Schnellville and the youth honestly adored him. After Reverend Lawrence Moll retired, immediately, Reverend Francis Mellen, ordained on June 10, 1919, became pastor from 1952 to 1953.

Everyone in America, from adults to students have freedom of speech. This freedom is provided by the first amendment. In the case Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, students fights for the freedom of speech in their school newspaper. One side of the case was three students who thought their free speech was violated and the other side was the principal defending the school. After the court's decision, this case had a big impact on the school and many other people. Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier talks about students not giving up their freedom of speech in a school setting.
Before this council, the way a church building would have been set out was very different. A church built prior to 1962 would have been built as if it were a large cross if you were to look at it from the sky.

The Sainte Chapelle sparkles like a rare jewel that has magnificent architecture and decoration; the stain glass windows seem to be inside of a jewel case. The many jewels seem to change color every hour with the sunlight rays bouncing back and forth. “The founder, King Louis IX, the future St. Louis, who had it built to house the Holy Relics of the Passion, today dispersed” (Finance 1). The spire has statues of Christ’s apostles at the base of the spire and has angles decorated above the apostles. The Sainte Chapelle, the lower chapel was devoted to the Virgin Mary, and reserved for the administration staff. The upper chapel was reserved for the King and his family; the religious relics connected to Jesus Christ were kept in the upper chapel. In 1690, the flood damaged the lower chapel, and the fire in 1776 caused more damage, then the Revolution further damaged the Sainte Chapelle. The restoration started around 1840 and was completed in the middle of the nineteenth century to exhibit the original thirteen-century medieval architecture. King Louis IX founded the Sainte Chapelle along with the Spire to hold the religious relics connected to Jesus Christ, the lower chapel was for the palace staff, and the upper chapel was reserved for the king.

The village attracts mainly Caucasian adults of a higher economic class. There is a large Jewish population in the Tampa Bay Area. Around 70,000 Jews live in and around the Tampa Bay Area.

...he centuries following them, they did not work nearly as hard, or did they suffer the same sacrifice and separation from materialistic possessions and luxuries. The church and congregation itself also underwent a dramatic change. The church progressed with the times to be not only a powerful institution religiously, but also politically, economically and also socially. With this rise in power in many different areas besides religion came the involvement in many different areas in society. These ties in society created involvement in the “City of the World” which took away from aspects of the “City of God.”
I could now see that we were putting way too much emphasis on the church building; not only my church but almost every other church in the U.S. Nowhere in Scripture does God focus in about where believers in Christ are to gather. There are a few references that the church met in people’s homes, as well as other places (“First Century Church”). When the church is mentioned in other epistles, it’s speaking to broad areas like: Corinth, Rome, Galatia, Ephesus, etc. and not “in Judas’ house in Damascus on Straight Street, which is the second left after the synagogue and the first right after the House of Leroy” (in reference to Acts 9:11).
