TRAINING OF MISSIONARY PRIESTS
SEMINARY TO BE BUILT Wellington, This Day. Wellington has been selected as New Zealand headquarters of the St. Columba’s Mission Society. A seminary for training missionary priests is to be built. The Rev. Father J. McGlynn, formerly rector of the missionary seminary at Essenden, Victoria, arrived recently and has taken up his duties. The missionary districts are in China, Korea, Burma, and some areas in the Philippines. The Rev. Father McGlynn says that although it is unlikely that a seminary will be built until after the war the society’s work would be carried on meanwhile in an existing establishment. He mentioned that the Rev. Father Francis Herlihy, has been appointed to the staff. The Rev. Father is at present detained in Korea where he was working before Japan entered the war.—P.A.
