The Society of African Mission's American Province was established in 1941 amidst significant growth in vocations.[1][2] In 1945, the society had acquired land in Dedham, Massachusetts[2] to hold a new minor seminary, a location chosen because of its proximity to Boston, which had a large Catholic population.[3]
Queen of Apostles Seminary was incorporated on 26 December 1945 by the SMA's inaugural US provincial superior Ignatius Lissner and opened in 1946 to educate and train college-age SMA seminarians.[1][2][4] Fr. James McConnell, SMA, was the seminary's first president, and Fr. Michael Moran, SMA, initially served as treasurer and clerk.[4]
The seminary closed in the early 1980s and was used to house an art collection owned by the society, which still maintained a priest residence across the street.[2][5]
