| Summary | "History of the Catholic Church in Paterson, N.J." by Charles A. Shriner is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work outlines the establishment and growth of the Catholic Church in Paterson, focusing on key milestones, figures, and events that shaped the community's religious landscape. Central to the account is the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of St. John's Church, emphasizing the evolution of Catholicism in the region and its interaction with broader societal developments. The opening of the book sets the foundation for understanding the early challenges and triumphs faced by the Catholic Church in Paterson. Shriner begins by discussing the sparse records available on the early history of the Church, acknowledging the efforts of living sources with rich memories, and the importance of diligent research in piecing together a coherent narrative. He introduces remarkable figures such as Father Isaac Jogues and various missionaries who faced persecution and adversity, illustrating the deep-rooted struggles for religious freedom. The narrative captures critical moments in the Church's development, such as the first mass celebrated in Paterson and the establishment of St. John's congregation, thereby establishing a comprehensive historical context for readers who are interested in religious history and community building.
