Bishop Thomas Gumbleton of Detroit visited the Oratory and Winthrop University on Sunday and Monday, March 7th and 8th. A luncheon was given at the Oratory on Monday afternoon. Here Bishop Gumbleton appears with faculty, staff and friends who attended the luncheon. Monday night the bishop speaks at Winthrop on the topic of "Transforming the World through Non-violence," co-sponsored by the Peace Studies Minor and Philosophy/Religion Department of Winthrop University.
The Oratory, situated on six acres in the residential area of Rock Hill, offers guests a quiet oasis. The grounds of The Oratory, the neighborhood and two nearby parks offer opportunities for meditation, prayer and relaxation. Housing facilities are varied, but all rooms are air-conditioned with linens furnished. The church and main residence, which includes the dining room, are handicapped accessible.
