Msgr. Richard Antall, Pastor, Holy Name Parish in Cleveland was the guest speaker at the August 1 luncheon gathering of the First Friday Club of Cleveland.
His talk titled, "Answering the Call: Cleveland's Latin American Mission - A Golden Anniversary" provided the audience with his unique perspective of having served the people of El Salvador during two separate assignments that totaled twenty one years of his priestly ministry.
Msgr. Antall's first assignment to El Salvador began September 1, 1985 and was completed on September 1, 1993, he then returned to El Salvador for a second assignment which began on July 1, 1998 and ended on June 30, 2011.
For those who couldn't attend this native Clevelander's lecture which looks back on the fifty year and counting commitment that the Diocese of Cleveland has made to the people of El Salvador, the complete audio track and a brief audio/video clip are provided for your review.
