Transitional Diaconate Ordination

Congratulations to four of our seminarians who were recently ordained transitional deacons.

Bishop William A. Wack, CSC ordained Christopher Holcomb on April 20 at the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart. William Gibson, Peter Jutras, and Grant Sennott, along with seven seminarians from five other Florida dioceses, were ordained transitional deacons by Bishop Gerald M. Barbarito of Palm Beach on April 13 at St. Joan of Arc in Boca Raton.

The new deacons will be assigned to serve in parishes as they complete their final year of formation.

Please continue to keep our seminarians in your prayers.
