New Men for the Home Missions!
Glenmary has a new finally-professed member: Brother David Henley. His favorite quip: "I ran away from the circus to join Glenmary." His goal: to be a "brother to all." And two men preparing for missionary priesthood have taken First Oaths as Glenmary missioners after completing their novitiate year. Plus, there are four men in this year's novitiate class and three men in prenovitiate training. The Spirit is moving!
