History Of The Archdiocese
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 31)
F. Kennedy), there had been
many statements, often from
churchmen of other faiths, im
pugning the ability of a Catholic
to be a loyal chief executive.
These charges were most dis
turbing to many Catholics and
were unjust in the extreme to
the Church, which always tea
ches the moral duty of patrio
tism and obedience to lawful
authority. On the eve of the
presidential election, before the
result could possibly be known,
Bishop Hyland caused to be read
in all the .churches of the dio
cese a letter urging the faith
ful to forgive the attacks on their
faith and loyalty to their coun
try. He pointed with justifiable
pride to the fact that there had
been no politics in any Catholic
pulpit, and expressed the hope
that never again would anyone
feel impelled to cast any doubt
on the loyalty of American Ca
tholics. “Let us bear neither
malice nor ill will toward any
one,’* he wrote,’*. . .Let us.ex
tend the hand of Christian
friendship to all.”
Bishop Hyland Resigns
On October 11,1961 thefaith-
ful of the diocese were sadden
ed to learn that Bishop Hyland
had resigned as Ordinary of the
Diocese of Atlanta. The an
nouncement was made by the A-
postolic Delegate in Washington
that, due to ill health, Pope
John XXIII had granted the re
quest of Bishop Hyland in per
mitting him to resign. In a let
ter of farewell to the faithful,
Bishop Hyland stated that he did
not want to have any ceremonies
of farewell. However, all of the
priests of the Diocese gathered
at the Monastery of the Holy
Ghost in Conyers and said good
bye to the Bishop. The issue of
THE BULLETIN printed just
prior to his departure listed the
buildings erected, renovated
and converted to church use
while Bishop Hyland was in
Georgia. This impressive num
ber totalled 55.
Metropolitan Province Erected
On February 21, 1962 the A-
postolic Delegate in Wash
ington, D.C. announced that a
Metropolitan Province hadbeen
formed of the Dioceses of Ra
leigh, Charleston, Savannah, St.
Augustine and Miami with At
lanta designated a£ the center.
Atlanta was made an Arch
diocese and Bishop Paul J.
Hallinan of Charleston, S.C.
was designated as the First
Archbishop of Atlanta.
The vigor and vitlity which
had marked the growth of the
Church in north Georgia re
ceived new impetus under the
inspired and inspiring direc
tion of its new head. Its pa
rishes have been “in the van
guard of the vernacular” and
many now raise their voices
in congregationally sung pray
er and liturgy.
In May, 1963, Archbishop
Hallinan had an audience with
Pope John XXIII in Rome, re
turning there in August for pre
liminary work for the second
session of Vatican II which op
ened September 8. September of
1964 found him back in Rome
for the third session of \foti-
can II, and the following year
he attended the fourth and final
session which closed on Decem
ber 8, 1965.
The Spirit of Vatican II
Ecumenism first manifested
itself here when Operation Un

cil of Catholic Men and “open
house” was held Sunday, Nov
ember 10, 1963 at all the
churches of the Archdiocese for
visits by those who are not Ca
tholic.
The following Fall a 3-day
Conference on the Liturgy,
again under the aegis of the
ACCM, was held at Christ the
King Cathedral, closing on Sun
day afternoon with the first sung
Mass in the new liturgy, in
English, with the celebrant fac
ing the congregation, and the
people singing as they ap
proached the priest, standing,
to receive Communion.
A Reconstituted Commission
on Sacred Liturgy was formed
in July, 1964 and, in December
of that year, a Reconstituted
Archdiocesan Religious Unity
Commission came into being.

Expansion Program
At the beginning of 1965 an
Archdiocesan Expansion Pro
gram was announced.Though the
goal of this drive was almost
twice that of the diocese’ 1963
fund — raising drive for
$1,200,000, this effort, like the
earlier one, went over the top
-$2,102,500 being pledged.
Two of the projects for which
these funds are being raised
have already come into being:
the Village of St. Joseph for
dependent boys and girls, which
was dedicated in March, 1966;
also a new Newman Center
and Spalding Chapel at the Uni
versity of Georgia in Athens.
The Official Catholic Direc
tory of the Archdiocese of At
lanta lists Newman Clubs at
Agnes Scott College, Atlanta
University, Emory University,
Georgia Institute of Technology,
Georgia State College, Ogle
thorpe College, the University
of Georgia, North Georgia State
College at Dahlonega, Brenau
College in Gainesville and
Georgia State College for Wo
men at Milledgeville.
Episcopal Vicars
This new office and title au
thorized by the Second Vatican
Council was conferred in
March, 1966 on Msgr. Joseph
E. Moylan, Episcopal Vicar for
the clergy, Msgr. Joseph G.
Cassidy, Episcopal Vicar for
Sisters, and Msgr. Patrick J.
O’ Connor, Episcopal Vicar for
vocations.
The Emerging Layman
Just as the Church in Geor
gia emerged a half-century ago
from the aura of suspicion and
fear of the unknown largely thru
the efforts of devout laymen
who wanted others to know and
love their faith, so the emerg
ing layman of today will take
his faith into the community for
all to evaluate the principles
by which he lives and come to
know his church thru his daily
witness to the faith he holds
dear.
