Parroquia Nuestra Señora de Andacollo, Santiago is Catholic parish in Santiago, Chile dedicated to Our Lady of Andacollo. The parish shares the same city block with Colegio de Nuestra Señora de Andacollo, a school administered, like the parish, by the Congregation of Holy Cross. Holy Cross Sisters serve in the parish as well. "Our Lady of Andacollo" ((スペイン語:Nuestra Señora de Andacollo)), also known as the "Virgin of Andacollo" ((スペイン語:Virgen de Andacollo)), is a celebrated Catholic image of the Virgin Mary. : Founded in 1912, it is a Roman Catholic parish in the Archdiocese of Santiago. Since 1977, the parish has been under the direction of the Congregation of Holy Cross. Holy Cross assumed responsibility for both the parish and school at the request of Cardinal Raúl Silva Henríquez. == History == In 1865, Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de Andacollo was born as a chapel in honor of St. Vincent Ferrer to serve the people living to the west of the old downtown of Santiago, Chile. In 1890, a chaplain, Rev. Hernan Domeyko was assigned to the chapel. In 1901, the Archdiocese of Santiago gave permission for the construction of a church on the site of the old chapel. On Christmas Eve of 1902, the parishioners requested the construction of a church in honor of St. Vicent Ferrer and a chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Andacollo. Rev. Malcolm Johnson, C.S.C. reported in 1987 that, in spite of extensive archival research, he could not uncover the reason for the change, but, from 1903 forward, the community would be referred to as the "Sanctuary of Our Lady of Andacollo." By 1912, the Sanctuary had grown in importance to the neighborhood that it was necessary to give it the designation of parish with Rev. Ladislao Godoy as its first pastor. By 1917, the parish census had grown to between 25,000 and 30,000 parishioners over a span of 100 city blocks. In 1943, Nicomedes Guzmán wrote his novel about the poverty of the neighborhood, "''La sangre y la esperanza''" (Blood and the Hope ), that frequently marks the presence of the parish in the life of the poor by the sound of the church's bells in key moments of the novel.〔Nicomedes Guzmán, "La sangre y la esperanza," Santiago: Editorial Orbe, 1943, pp. 89, 165, 185, 200, 212, 288, 289, 332.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Parroquia Nuestra Señora de Andacollo, Santiago」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
