A BRIEF HISTORY OF OUR LADY STAR OF THE SEA CHURCH

Dedicated in 1882, St. Patrick’s Cathedral located on the plot of land on North Carancahua now occupied by the American Bank

Plaza, became the Cathedral of the Diocese of Corpus Christi when the Diocese was formed in 1912. Leading contributors to the

church were Captain Miflin Kenedy, who donated land, money, and pews. Mrs. Kenedy, who donated the sanctuary windows, and the

wife of then Corpus Christi Mayor J. B. Murphy, gave the statues. The ladies of the Altar Society gave the main altar. Various

parishioners, in memory of their deceased family members, donated the other stained glass windows. As the Diocese grew, a new

cathedral was planned and was dedicated in 1940. St. Patrick’s continued to have daily Mass for the children of Incarnate Word

Academy then located nearby. In 1951, after it caught fire, the church was dismantled and the sanctuary and main part of the nave

were moved to the present location to serve the newly created “Our Lady Star of the Sea” parish. The altar, statues and stained glass

windows were saved and reinstalled in the little church. Thus a portion of the old St. Patrick’s Cathedral remains standing, a memorial

to the pioneers of Corpus Christi. Over the years, the parish has grown to include families from all parts of Corpus Christi, Portland,

Gregory, Taft, Aransas Pass and Ingleside who seek a small “country church” atmosphere of worship and fellowship. In addition, our

parishioners represent a broad cross-section of cultures and backgrounds from various parts of the United States and a number of

foreign countries.

The John G. and Marie Stella Kenedy Memorial Foundation

Sarita Kenedy East established the foundation in 1960 to support and fund Catholic educational, charitable, and religious activities in Texas, primarily

in the region of the Diocese of Corpus Christi (as that entity then existed).

The mission of the Foundation is to nurture and advance activities which

contribute to the following core values: Helping break the cycle of poverty, Assisting people to help themselves, Nurturing support and love for

Catholic institutions, Developing the Catholic faith, Learning, Spirituality, Respect, Cooperative/collaborative partnership

GIVE GOD THE GLORY

A curious feature of the first half of Mark’s Gospel is the

pattern of Jesus working a miracle, then telling the recipient of the

miracle to keep still about it. Many theories have been offered: Mark

is setting the stage for the great “secret” revealed when Peter will

proclaim Jesus the Messiah at Caesarea Philippi; more skeptical

commentators offer that Jesus, fully aware of human nature, knew

that the way to spread the news was to tell people to keep it se-

cret. The insight into this secret-keeping that serves us well, howev-

er, is that Jesus was initiating his public ministry according to the

pattern that Paul describes. He was doing it for the glory of God—

not for his own benefit, but for that of all. Paul would later write in

Philippians that Jesus “humbled” himself to become like us. And we

see this humility at work in today’s healing of the leper. Jesus is

trying to reveal the presence of God’s reign among the people, not

so that he himself might receive the glory, but so that God would be

glorified through him. Imitating this pattern, which Paul encourages

the Jewish and Greek Christian factions in Corinth to do, still serves

us well today.
