Biography

Father Clem taught religion in college for 15 years. He then practiced campus ministry at the University of Virginia and Old Dominion University. He was elected as the prior of Saint Stephen Priory in Dover, Massachusetts, and administered its retreat house. Appointed to be the student master, he went to the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, DC. He also served as the pastor of Saint Gertrude Church in Cincinnati, and then became the novice master there. He has since moved to Saint Louis Bertrand Priory in Louisville to concentrate all his efforts on preaching. Yet throughout his priestly years, he has always been an active preacher of parish missions.

Programs

God loves. He forgives, He heals, and He empowers. This is the theme of "The Family Mission" which begins on Sunday evening and ends on Wednesday evening. There is a morning service with Mass followed by confessions. The evening service is an hour of preaching with benediction. Children are included in a special way. For more information, send for a brochure.

Availability

Check for openings in his schedule.

Fee

There are two choices: 1) a stipend, travel expenses and a collection on the last day of the mission, or 2) $2,000. Poorer parishes prefer the first choice.
