CLARETIAN ALUMNI

ASSOCIATION

The Alumni Association Appeal this year will provide

needed automatic doors to accommodate the retired

priests and brothers using walkers and canes.

Doors in Dominguez Seminary building are solid

wood, meant to last forever. The building is nearing

100 years. But these doors are exceptionally heavy,

and not conducive to the seminary’s current role as

retirement community.

The Association plans to raise $15,000 from its

members which in turn will inspire other friends of

the Claretians to triple our gifts. Recent projects

completed by the Alumni include air‐conditioning

for the dining and community rooms, repurposing

of the pool area into the Upper Garden, and

construction of a gazebo near the seminary building.

Your help is needed.

Gifts are tax‐deductible. For info, call 213.999.6380

Wishing all a blessed Christmas.

Alumni Council Meets withProvincial

Tribute to Fr. Richard DeTore, C.M.F.

The Alumni Association Council met with Provincial Superior Fr. Rosendo Urrabazo, CMF in November to outline its support for the Dominguez Seminary Centenary. The Visitor General from Rome last Spring asked the Community to work with the Alumni in celebrating the Dominguez Centenary in 2024. The Visitor asked that a vision be developed for the seminary building and grounds in its next century.While the retirement community will remain its primary purpose, the property could be expanded for visiting Claretians studying at local universities or even for young men preparing for religious life. Fr. Rosendo said planning should consider other educational ventures to prepare lay people for greater roles in the church, giving them theological training.The Council expressed enthusiasm to the Provincial for an alumni‐run campaign that might support a new, expanded vision for the seminary.
