At graduation this year the seminary honored Edwin Cardinal O’Brien, who served twenty years in seminary administration, by awarding him an honorary doctorate. His commencement address emphasized the critical nature of the work of the Sulpicians in the ministry of priestly formation as well as in continuing formation of clergy: “I think you can appreciate my saying that this is a kind of homecoming for me. . . From the start I was impressed by the Sulpician spirit of this institution – a highly motivated student body, a distinguished and committed and staff, and quite especially, a most effective and generous Board of Trustees.” As I conclude my time as President-Rector let me echo the Cardinal’s view of the St. Mary’s community. I move into the next stage of my priestly life and ministry with a thankful and joyful heart for God’s goodness to me through the seminarians, faculty, Summer 2016 staff, board and the alumni of this, my alma mater .
