Monument at seminary honors Msgr. Stuebben

In recognition of the centennial of St. John/Assumption Seminary and the leadership of the late Msgr. Lawrence Stuebben, Catholic Cemeteries of the archdiocese donated an engraved monument stone. Presenting the memorial was Catherine Kramer of Catholic Cemeteries and receiving the recognition was Father Jeff Pehl, rector of Assumption. The engraved script reads, “CENTENNIAL 1915 — 2015 — This venerable and established institution has prepared and formed men to be diocesan priests for ministry and service in the Archdiocese of San Antonio and beyond for one hundred years. Many celebrations marked the milestone including a Cathedral Mass on Aug. 15, 2014, the alumni reunion, and a solemn outdoor mass at Assumption Seminary on Oct. 2, 2015 — anniversary of the founding. Tribute is especially given to Msgr. Lawrence J. Stuebben (1932-2017) alumnus, rector, Board member and Centennial chair.”
