Timeline

1904

Vincent Stanislaus Waters (August 15, 1904—December 3, 1974) was an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church.

Vincent Waters was born on August 15, 1904, in Roanoke, Virginia, to Michael Bernard and Mary Frances (née Crowley) Waters.

1920

He attended Belmont Abbey College in Belmont, North Carolina from 1920 to 1925, and then entered St. Charles College in Ellicott City, Maryland (1925-1926) and St. Mary's Seminary in Baltimore, Maryland (1926-1928).

Waters furthered his studies at the Pontifical North American College in Rome.

1931

Waters was ordained to the priesthood for the Diocese of Richmond in Rome by Cardinal Francesco Selvaggiani on December 8, 1931.

1932

Following his return to Virginia in 1932, Waters served as a curate at Holy Cross Parish in Lynchburg, Virginia, until 1936, when he was transferred to Sacred Heart Cathedral in Richmond, Virginia.

1936

Waters served as chancellor of the diocese from 1936 to 1943, and director of the diocesan Mission Fathers from 1943 to 1945.

1945

He served as bishop of the Diocese of Raleigh in North Carolina from 1945 until his death in 1974.

On March 15, 1945, Waters was appointed the third bishop of the Diocese of Raleigh by Pope Pius XII.

He received his episcopal consecration on May 15, 1945, from Bishop Peter Ireton, with Bishops Gerald O'Hara and Emmet M. Walsh serving as co-consecrators.

1953

In 1953, a year before Brown v. Board of Education decision by the US Supreme Court, Waters ordered the desegregation of all Catholic churches and schools in the diocese.

He described racial segregation as a product of "darkness," and declared that "the time has come for it to end."

1962

He also said, "'I am not unmindful, as a Southerner, of the force of this virus of prejudice among some persons in the South, as well as in the North. I know, however, that there is a cure for this virus, and that is our faith.'"Bishop Michael Begley said of Waters, "'[his] missionary zeal and his concern for God's people cannot be measured. He was a leader in many fields, one of which was civil rights, as he fought for the civil rights of the black people in integrating schools, churches and all Catholic institutions.'"Waters attended all four sessions of the Second Vatican Council in Rome between 1962 and 1965.

Waters was later accused by some of the diocesan clergy of holding on to idle church property worth millions of dollars while some parishes were in debt.

He also denied requests for the creation of a priests' senate, and had his resignation requested by around twenty percent of the clergy.

1972

In 1972, Waters expelled five Sisters of Providence nuns from the diocese for not wearing their religious habits while teaching.

1974

Vincent Waters died from a heart attack at his residence in Raleigh on December 3, 1974, at age 70.

He is buried in the cemetery of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in Newton Grove, North Carolina.
