As the final preparations come together for the ordination Saturday, I find myself reflecting on the hundreds of people who contribute to my receiving Holy Orders. Dozens upon dozens of people at Holy Trinity, in the Chancery Offices, in my home parish and within the diocese are all giving 110% toward my ordination. It is an extremely humbling and yet uplifting experience. Each person is lending their talents to the ordination. All these varies pieces come together to make this ordination possible. The vast amount of planning and implementation alone is almost overwhelming.
I cannot possibly thank everyone who is involved in the ordination, but I can pray for them that God may grant their prayers and bless their hard work, dedication and service that make this possible. May God bless everyone who lends a hand, who attends the ordination and who offers prayers on my behalf. Until next time...God bless.
