He is shown anointing one of them with holy oil. The ceremony also included the “washing of the bells” and an incensation. Assisting the cardinal are Msgr. Henry J. O’Connell and Msgr. Cornelius T. H. Sherlock, archdiocesan consultants. The bells were named for St. Francis Xavier, St. Francis de Sales and St. Francis of Assisi. Some 25 older men have already been accepted as candidates for the priesthood at the seminary, now under construction. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO
