Description
A red-capped cardinal reviews assembled indigenous Catholic seminarians. In the background, a building is visible.
The back of the postcard has no handwriting. Printed on it is "Seminarites Indigenes du Diocese de KOUDOUGOU (Haute-Volte [Burkina Faso]) Afr. Occ." "Comme le desait SS. Pie XII dans son Enxyclique "Fidei donum" certains Eveques d'Afrique "sont contraints faute d'argent, a refuser l'entreee de leur Seminaire a des jeunes gans pleins de generosite et d'espoir."" "L'Eveque de Koudougou est de ceux-la. Maigre les lourdes dettes qu'il a deja pour la pension de ses Seminaristes, il continue a en admettre de noveaux
mais it est oblige, charque annee, de restreindre le nombre des admissions." "La Pension d'un Petit-Seminariste coute 45.000 F (450 NF) par an." "Celle d'un Grand-Seminariste 125.000 (1.250 NF) par an. Mais les dons les plus minimes sont recus avec reconnaissance." "Contribuer meme partiellement, a l entretien d'un futur Pretre c'est s'asseurer pour l'avenir une large part a toutes les Messes qu'il celebrence et a tout son apostolat." "CCP Eveche de Koudougou (Hte-Volta) OUAGADOUGOU 45 ou Procure des Peres Blancs 24 Avenue de Launay NANTES".
