Ordination update: 5 new deacons for Rochester

Ordination update: 5 new deacons for Rochester

by Jeff Witherow/Catholic Courier

The good people at The Catholic Courier were kind enough to share some images and the details of the ordination:

Five men were ordained as deacons during a May 26 ordination Mass at Rochester’s Sacred Heart Cathedral. Bishop Salvatore R. Matano ordained Deacons Michael Kristan, Binh-Yen Nguyen and James Pegoni to the permanent diaconate, while Deacon’s Matthew Walter and Daniel White were ordained as transitional deacons as they continue to prepare for the priesthood.

The full ordination is available for viewing below. Check out the full gallery of images here. Congratulations, brothers, and welcome! Ad multos annos!
