St. Johns Church
Folk Attend Two
Interesting Events

ManY of the parishioners of ST.
Johns Parish recently attended
two widely different events in
which some of the younger mem
bers of the parish took part
The first event was of religious
nature and took place in Towson,
Maryland. That was the receiving
of the habit and the white veil of
novice in the Mission Helpers of
the Sacred Heart. Only one of the
five young women taking part in
the ceremony was from Milford.
She was the former Kay Peterman;
she will now be known as Sr. Mary
Carmella of ST. Joseph, Guardian
of Virgins. Later in the ceremony
four young nOvices pronounced
their first vows as members of the
congregation. The ceremonies
were conducted by the T. Rev.
Msgr. Joseph M Nelligan, the pas
tor of the Immaculate Conception
Church III Towson.
Monsignor Joseph d. Sweeney,
the Vicar General of the Diocese
of Wilmington and the Rev. JOS
eph A. Corrigan were among the
visiting clergy present for the cer-
emonies. The sermon was deliver
ed by the Rev. James A. Peterman,
who is now the assistant pastor of
the Church of the Holy Spirit in
Garfield Park, just outside of Will
mington.
The other event that was wit
messed by some of the parisbioners
was the one act play contest con-
Quoted by the CYO of Wilmington.
The plays were presented in the
auditorium of St. Peters Cathe-
dral. St. Johns entry was entit-
led 'Mannequin's Maid" and was
presented under the direction of
Daniel Mccarthy. Those taking
part included Carol and Kris Woll-
ter, Barbara KINNEY, Mary Hoy
rer, Sally Burton, Bridget Coscar-
ELI, Jim Dees, and Roger Heeger.
Even though the young folks gave
a good account of themselves, they
were not able to capture any of
the three trophies awarded to those
receiving the highest number of
points from the judges. The Mil
ford entry was the only one from
lower Delaware. The other five
plays were presented by groups in
and around Wilmington.
