Memories of Blackwood - Mother of the Savior Seminary This DVD audio-video program brings back the memories of Mother of the Savior Seminary in Blackwood, New Jersey, which was run by the Salvatorian Fathers and Brothers from 1947 to 1967. The two audio-video presentations on this DVD contain over 500 photos taken from Salvatorian collections in the USA Province Archives, the school's yearbooks and newsletters.

There are two presentations on this DVD:

Memories of Blackwood - Mother of the Savior Seminary Take a journey through a typical school-year in the life of the many seminarians who lived at the school in southern New Jersey through the years. Their daily life certainly had its share of study and prayer, but there was also plenty of time for sports, recreation, and the enjoyment of friendships which would last a lifetime. You'll also see pictures from the famed Passion Play, an annual presentation at the school for many years. (Program is approximately 40 minutes long)

A Tour of the Campus We'll take you on a tour of the buildings and grounds and show you all the changes that took place over the years. (Program is approximately 7 minutes long)

This DVD can be viewed on a regular DVD player (see note below *) or on your computer's DVD-rom drive. You can also view the photos individually on your computer's DVD-rom drive, through a directory program (such as Windows Explorer) or any graphics-viewing program. This will be especially appreciated by former students who want to spend a little more time with each of the photos, or for anyone who appreciates excellent photography work.

And for anyone who would like to see what seminary life was like in those years, this DVD will give you a good idea, and will help create a mood where you can relive those days right along with the students.

This DVD is available for a donation of $15 each. (We'll take care of the postage.)

* (Please note: We create each DVD here in the Salvatorian Archives, using DVD-R discs. While these will play on newer "multi-format" DVD players and on all computer DVD-rom drives, they might not play on older or less expensive DVD players that are capable of showing only DVD movies.)
