Brendan O’Callaghan OFM Cap. of Paradise, Pennsylvania, the group included three priests who had recently arrived from the Capuchin Friary on Church Street in Dublin, Ireland: Fr. Clement Connolly OFM Cap., Fr. Stanislaus Kavanagh OFM Cap., and Fr. Dr. Thomas Dowling OFM Cap. The tour was scheduled to last twelve months, covering the Dioceses of Philadelphia, New York, Harrisburg, Brooklyn, and Trenton.
