He was instrumental in establishing the International Catholic Guild of Nurses in 1924 and the Catholic Medical Mission Board in 1927. Beginning in 1927 he was the spiritual director of the Guild of Nurses, and he directed the Catholic Medical Mission Board from 1929 until he passed away in 1960. Father Garesche wrote numerous books on the Catholic faith. This particular book was owned and used by Barbara Gibbs while she was attending nursing school at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York City. St. Vincent's Hospital was opened in 1849 by the Sisters of Charity New York. It is a Catholic hospital that still trains nurses and doctors today. The book was donated to the museum by Barbara Fitzgerald, daughter of Barbara (Gibbs) Fitzgerald. |
