JAMAICAN CHURCH LEADERSHIP |
|||||||||||||||||||
|
On the leadership role of Archbishop McEleney Starting especially with Archbishop McEleney, Jesuits have had a leadership role in the Jamaican church and education. He was ahead of everybody else in ecumenism and liturgical reform. We were all ahead of people up here in the States. In ecumenism we had a minister's fraternity long before anything got going up here. When someone came down from here to give us a lecture, he would say that people up north had not yet started having parish councils, while we already had them for a long time. On stepping down as headmaster When the time came for me to step down and Fr Larry Burke was superior of the Jamaican mission, Fr. Maurice Feres was appointed headmaster. Something happened, which startled the lay teachers: I became assistant headmaster. Maurice had been my assistant. We just swapped jobs. And I was at St. George's for twenty-nine years: it was wonderful! Due to death or sickness some of these selected readings have been read by someone other than the author. This page contains one such replacement.
