Pleads For
In Educating
For Priesthood

Since time and again. the Popes
have reminded us OF the necessity
OF training a native priesthood, II
Is the primary purpose OF st. Au-
gustine's Seminary TO educate the
Negro to the priesthood. But, In
order that the seminary may con-
tinue its work, St. Augustine's
Messenger makes It's appearance
pleading for help and assistance
from friends and co-workers.
We are hoping that you will real
lie the importance OF the work OF
educating the native clergy. Yes,
and also that you will understand
the difficulty OF the work. The
education OF future priests in high
school. college, novitiate and semi
nary are years OF dead expense. and
one can easily realize what a heavy
burden OF investment II means for
the administration OF our semi
nary.
The best efforts OF the Church
today are being organized and d.
rected TO help In building up a ma
tive clergy. Our Holy Father,
Plus XII, on several occasions. but
particularly in his encyclical RE
rum Ecclesiae." expressed his warm
est interest In this work and his
conviction OF the need for native
priests, II the Church is ever 10
rise TO the full stature OF self-sus-
tanning. self-propagating units OF
the Church Universal.
We fondly hope that on Mission
Sunday. October "a. and during the
year a number OF good friends will
come 10 our aid. and cooperate
with us in educating the colored
to the priesthood. Remember. to do
ones share In giving to the Church
a good priest Is noble deed
fraught with blessings.
This is why we beg for your un-
Outstanding, your prayers. and
your help. because may we re-
peat once more?-it is to build a
native clergy.
