A priest reader dropped me the following note:
I know you often like to report deacon ordinations. Today, Bishop Charles Thompson ordained 11 men for the Diocese of Evansville, Indiana. They are good and holy men. Peace!
A visit to the diocese’s web page revealed the Twitter feed for the newspaper, The Message, and these great new pictures of the freshly ordained deacons and their happy bishop. Below, a great shot of the cathedral, with some 700 people in attendance for this happy event. The men’s names and assignments are posted here.
Congratulations, brothers, and welcome! Ad multos annos!
And today we celebrate...
