 Seoul. South Korea. Friday, October 24, 2013 — The President of the Capitol Hill-based Irish National Caucus, who traveled to Seoul to be sworn- in as one of twelve Judges on the World Peace Prize Awarding Council has, instead, been sworn-in as the Chief Judge.

This followed the resignation of out-going Chief Judge, 94-four-year-old former Congressman Lester Wolff who did not travel to Seoul.

Fr. McManus said: “I have very big shoes to fill. Lester is a legend for his life-long commitment to equality, justice, and peace.”

Reverend Dr.Han Min Su — the Seoul-based Founder and Master Planner of the World Peace Prize entities — was effusive in his praise of Mr. Wolff: ” Only Fr. McManus would be able to replace Lester. All of us are deeply grateful to Lester for his wonderful contributions. We wish him every blessing and he will always in our prayers.”
