Tanglewood the Night Before...

Before the new seminarians arrive tomorrow, a number of Faculty members headed out to Tanglewood to commemorate the end of summer. Shown here are Father O'Connor, Father Conn, Monsignor McRae, Monsignor McLaughlin and Father Briody in the Koussevitzky Music Shed. The evening included the Pops playing the complete musical accompaniment to a showing of "The Wizard of Oz!"

Monsignor James P. Moroney, a priest of the Diocese of Worcester for forty four years, is Pastor of Saint Cecilia Parish in Leominster. He served for many years as Executive Director of the USCCB Secretariat for Divine Worship in Washington D.C., as Rector of Saint John's Seminary in Boston, and as Pastor of Mary Queen of the Rosary Parish in Spencer and as Rector of Saint Paul's Cathedral in Worcester. Pope Saint John Paul II and Pope Benedict both appointed him as a Consultor to the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments in Rome and as Executive Director of the Vox Clara Committee. He is author of THE MASS EXPLAINED (Catholic Book Publishing) which is being published in its third edition this Spring.
