1865 as he established the Congregation of Holy Cross in the United States.
Ave was the third apostolate of Holy Cross founded in the US by the missionary priest, following the University of Notre Dame and St. Joseph’s Parish in South Bend, Indiana. Fr. Sorin started The Ave Maria magazine to honor Mary, focus on Catholic families, and showcase the best American Catholic writing. The first issue was a 16-page weekly edited by Fr. Sorin himself. Many had doubts about whether the publication would survive because of the fate of other Catholic periodicals, as well as the mainly poor, immigrant makeup of the American Church, but The Ave Maria did thrive for more than 100 years and at one time was the most popular Catholic magazine in the country.
Fr. Sorin believed that The Ave Maria would “be the source of most abundant blessings, one of the best things ever done in the Congregation, and ultimately a glorious work for our Blessed Mother.”
Under the leadership of Rev. Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., who served as the third publisher from 1875 to 1930, the magazine grew from 10,000 subscribers to 35,000. It boasted contributions from every important Catholic writer of the time, as well as Holy Cross religious that included Revs. J. A. Zahm, C.S.C., and John Cavanaugh, C.S.C. Under Fr. Hudson, Ave began publishing hardcover books of inspirational Catholic stories.
