Priest and seminarian elected officers of black Catholic organizations

Father Kenneth Taylor, pastor of Holy Angels Parish in Indianapolis and director of the archdiocesan Office of Multicultural Ministry, was recently re-elected vice president of the National Black Catholic Clergy Caucus.

The election took place during the July 25-29 joint conference of several black Catholic organizations in Greenbelt, Md.

At the same meeting, seminarian Douglas Hunter, a member of St. Joan of Arc Parish in Indianapolis, was elected treasurer of the National Black Catholic Seminarian Association.

Hunter is a first-year theology student at Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology in St. Meinrad.

Next year, the National Black Catholic Congress, which is held once every five years, will be held on July 19-21 in Indianapolis.
