This beautiful fixture is now in place in the Cathedral Foyer. We thank BRAD ALLAM, a longtime parishioner with his family, for his exceptionally gifted expertise and artistic ability in designing and producing it for us.
It will permanently be displayed in the foyer of our Cathedral.
A NEW PRIEST FOR OUR DIOCESE
(tap on ‘Recent Events Media’ here to the left to access all the photos and a video taken at Doug’s Diaconate and Priesthood Ordinations and First Mass of Thanksgiving)
Our Parish joyfully announces the upcoming Ordination to the Priesthood of our parishioner, Rev. Doug McClure, at his request and with the special permission of Pope Francis, which our Diocese recently received from the Vatican.
This week, Bishop Colli officially accepted Doug’s petition to be ordained a Catholic Priest and announced the date for his Ordination to the Diaconate on Thursday, January 19th at 7:00 pm and his Ordination to the Priesthood on Saturday, January 28th at 2:00 pm. in our Cathedral.
As many know, Doug is a former Anglican priest who became a full member of the Catholic Church with his wife, Lesley in 2016. Since then he has been in training for the Catholic Priesthood and actively ministering in our Parish. In his announcement to the Priests and Deacons of the Diocese, Bishop Colli expressed his appreciation to Pope Francis for granting Doug permission to be ordained and his elation in welcoming a new priest to our diocese.
We congratulate Doug, Lesley and their family.
