Our diocese is blessed to have 13 men who will be ordained deacons on May 17th at the 11:30 Mass at St. Agnes Cathedral.

They are Louis Anetrella, William Casey, Raymond D'Alessio, Frank Dell'Aglio, William Dobbins, Lawrence Faulkenberry, Anthony Graviano, Thomas Lucie, Paul Neuhedel, Luis Polanco, John Rieger, Jeffrey Sykes, and Edward Tappin.

Heavenly Father, since the time of the Apostles you have inspired the Church to commission certain members to assist in a special way in the pastoral mission of Christ.  Bless the deacons that they may be humble and faith-inspired in their service.  We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen.

- This past Sunday we celebrated Pentecost and the blessing of the Holy Spirit.  We no longer have Jesus present on this earth as a man but through the Holy Spirit we have the ability for a personal relationship with God.  Lord through the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit enliven our hearts.
