AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA -- Several thousand Catnolic men plan to gather here for the annual eonvention of the St. Augustine Di- ocesan Union of Holy Name Soc- ieties on November 13 and 14. Con- vention sessions will be held on Saturday and the largest parade of Holy Name men in the history of Florida will march through the streets of this oldest city on Sun- day, according to the Rt. Rev. Mon- signor C. L. Elslander, of Saraso- ta, diocesan spiritual director. The crowning event of the Holy Name Society convention will be Sunday's pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche at the ancient Mission of Nombre De Dios in St. Augustine. The pilgrimage will start at an outdoor Mass at the Mission to be offered by Mon- signor Elslander at 10 o'clock Archbishop Joseph P. Hurley, Bishop of the Diocese of St. Aug- ustine, will preach the sermon at the Mass. After the Mass, the other pilgrimage ceremonies at the Shrine will be held. The parade will then march from the Shrine to the Cathedral, where the men will recite the Holy Name Pledge. | The convention opens Saturday morning and will last throughout the day. In the evening, the ban- quet speaker will be Bishop Tho- mas J. McDonough, Auxiliary Bis- hop of St. Augustine. Prominent speakers will address the session, Monsignor Elslander said. The more than 125 Catholic churches in Florida will be repre- sented at the forth-coming conven- tion. Huge delegations from the larger city parishes are anticipat- ed, as the pastors of those churches | have said that chartered. buses would bring hundreds of their par- ishioners to St. Augustine for the convention. State officers will be elected at the convention. The present presi- dent is Arthur T. Johnson, of Tam-| pa. Monsignor Elslander said this week, that this year’s convention would offer a “golden opportuni- ty” to encourage Catholic men to serve and love God more intensely, “It is axiomatic that the Holy Name Society is a parochial unit serving the parish and its pastor ill Gather For They All Want Audrey |and laboring in the interest of the | spiritual welfare of its members,” the Sarasota priest said. “Not only | is the reverence of God's Holy Name demanded, but the living of |@ good Catholic life. Assisting his | |pastor is the Holy Name man’s | Joy and the enhancing of his spir-| |itual life is the personal ambition | of each Holy Name member.” | The pilgrimage of men, highlight of this year’s convention, will pay | tribute to the Blessed Virgin Mary | as part of the Marian Year now/ being observed throughout the world by all Catholics. The signi-| ficance of the shrine in St. Augus-| tine, Monsignor Elslander said,| “is that it is the first shrine in| American ever dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary.” | The Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche here is located on the site of the first parish Mass in the con tinental United States, and Marian Year pilgrimages here have brought state-wide attention to the Mission and Shrine. The director of the ancient mission and Flori-| da’s Marian Year Shrine here is| Father John J. Fitzpatrick. Father Joseph Maring, S. J. Pas tor of St. Mary, Star of the Sea Church will lead the local Holy ;Name Society to St. Augustine. | Anyone of the Society wishing to| | make the convention and pilgrim- age may do so by contacting him at the Rectory. ‘CIO Bodies May Merge Soon DENVER, (® — The Executive | Council of the 120,000-member CIO | Oil Workers International Union | has called a union convention at } Cleveland Feb. 25 to prepare for a merger with the CIO United Gas, , Coke and Chemical Workers. \ | has urged the merger, which would | give the unions a combined mem- | bership of about 200,000. | The OWIU convention will pre- | cede by three days a meeting in Cleveland to complete the merger.
