25 Years As Benedictine Priest Father Romuald K. Bloms was ordained a priest by Bishop joseph F. Busch. One of Father's outstanding accomplishments during his first assignment at St. Benedict's Parish in the Bronx, New York City was the direction of a Drum and Bugle Corps. Active service with the Young People's Club and Young Ladies Sodality, and building of an ice skating rink highlighted his three year stay in Richmond, Minnesota. In 1947 Father Romuald came to St. Bernafd's as an assistant. Here he started a roller rink for the young people of the parish, and founded a dramatics club which staged Gilbert and Sullivan operettas. After he received a Master's Degree in Secondary School Administration in 1958, Father became principal at St. Bernard's High School. We, the students of St. Bernard's, sincerely congratulate Father Romuald on his Silver jubilee as a Benedictine priest. The Reverend Romuald K. Bloms.
