21 new deacons, 13 new priests, photo by Ludovic Margot (whom I hope to see among the ordinandi next year or the year after!). Largest number since 1939.......and next year.....? How will they all fit?!? O:)[........I hesitate to post the not-as-happy news from the great and historic Diocese of Orleans: can this be true? One deacon ordained this year? And only one priest last year and the year before? http://catholique-orleans.cef.fr/index.php?Ordinations]
Well, those are encouraging numbers. (All of two new priests ordained for our diocese this year, with four more ordinands to follow in various religious orders...)
ReplyDeletewhich diocese is yours?
ReplyDeleteThanks Rafaela -- I am praying for your diocese. O:) You should try to visit Toulon for next year's happy day, the last Sunday in June.....!
ReplyDeleteWould love to. I'd have attended the ordinations in Wigratzbad if I'd been able to get away, but work has been crazy and I couldn't leave the office. :S
