Waterfront Priest mediates Pacific maritime labor rifts
Father Matthew Connolly, 40, head of the Apostleship of the Sea in San Francisco, hosts The Roost luncheons where 400 to 600 seamen, managers, and union leaders mingle. His neutral ground approach has helped ease negotiations between maritime management and labor, earning him the monsignor rank and plans for a $400,000 new Apostleship building. His WW II chaplaincy and seagoing stint shape a unique mediation role recognized by both sides.
