ORDINATIONS 2014

As every year, the first week of July witnessed the ordination of numerous young men at the Institute’s seminary in Florence, Italy. Four priests, ten deacons, nine subdeacons, over 40 seminarians who received the cassock or one of the minor orders! (Four additional priests were ordained for the Institute in August in the U.S.A.) Please pray for these young vocations, especially for the two young seminarians who are pursuing their formation with us here in Preston this year. Video montage of Ordinations Week:
