Statement on appointment of
Father Michael Glenn as rector
of St. John Vianney Seminary

July 23, 2001

"Father Glenn has the energy, dedication and skills to be an outstanding rector. His experience as a pastor gives him an excellent sense of the practical needs of our local Church. His past work as vocations director makes him ideally suited to the formation of our seminarians. His education in Rome and his work in the early planning of our seminary and theological institute make him a good leader in our relationship with the Pontifical Lateran University, and a good guide and partner for our faculty.

He'll do a great job building on the foundation Bishop-elect Aquila leaves behind.."
