Can ever quite pass out of utter grief And wholly perish. -Robert Trost Dark days come, death, even the death of the two men named John, is inevitable. But nothing cherished ever wholly perishes. The sadness of june, and the tragedy of November, nineteen sixty-three are passing things, and life's end is no end at all. Man persists, man with the capacity to dream and hope, and dream again, just as these beloved who have gone before us with the courage of their faith in God and the promised inheritance of His heavenly domain.

' ll We turn to you, beloved sons, who like the apostles in the Cenacle are gathered in earnest prayer within the seminary walls. As you prepare under the maternal gaze of the Queen of the Apostles to receive the superhuman power of consecrating the Body and Blood of the Lord and of remitting sins, as well as the abundant grace of the Holy Spirit, which will enable you to fulfill worthily the ministry of reconciliation, we say with St. Paul: Let every man remain in the calling in which he was called C1 Cor. 7, 205. Docility and fidelity to the divine call are indispensable for anyone who wishes to cooperate more intimately with jesus Christ in the salvation of souls and to assure himself a more splendid crown of glory in eternity. Treasure this inestimable gift which the Lord has given you, and serve Him from your earliest years in joy and exultationf' -Pope Paul VI Summi Dei Verburrf' Apostolic Letter on Seminaries Dated November 4, 1963 T-if X 'll X if wif' alll' Q .LM H.
