Eric notes in an e-mail:
The priest in the photo is their Director of Deacon Formation, Father Michael Savelesky, who also serves the Spokane Diocese as Moderator of the Curia (not to mention four small rural parishes as pastor. A very dedicated priest). Ordination took place in Gonzaga University’s McCarthey Athletic Center to accommodate the size of the congregation.
Congratulations and welcome! Ad multos annos!
