(Taken from a document found in the file titled Senate of Priests - Correspondence 1969). The Senate was composed of the Archbishop and 17 elected members (one priest from each of the seven deaneries, four representatives from the religious clergy, two associate pastors, one representative from the seminary, and three age group representatives from among diocesan priests who are not associate pastors.
