The Passionist
The Passionist was published by United States Passionists from Holy Cross Province from 1948 until 1962. The following is a general table of contents of this publication which was compiled by Ms. Rebecca Andrews. The title page from Volume 1 (March 1948) provides two information summaries as to its aim and purpose which remain consistent through the years of publication.
"Published bimonthly at the Sacred Heart Retreat, 1924 Newburg Road, Louisville 5 Ky. [Kentucky], U.S.A. Issued each January, March, May, July, September and November. Financed by free-will offerings from readers. There is no Copyright. The paper is a private publication "pro manuscripto."
"The Passionist" aims at a deeper knowledge of the purpose of our Congregation and at a closer attainment of said purpose. Cooperation is invited. Consequently, contributions by any member of the Congregation along the lines of news, past or present, of general or provincial interest; articles dogmatic, ascetical, canonical, or of historical value for us, are welcome. Also photographs of recent or historic C.P. events are helpful towards the ideal "The Passionist" strives to reach. Especially at present does "The Passionist" wish to establish and conduct the Missionary Forum.
