I haven\u2019t seen any images yet, but The Catholic Globe<\/a><\/strong> reported last month:<\/p>\n

After almost five years of formation, five men of the Diocese of Sioux City will be ordained to the permanent diaconate on May 12.<\/p>\n

Bishop Walker Nickless will ordain Michael Higgins, Brad Magill, Don McGuire, David Penton and Dale Tigges at 10 a.m. at Cathedral of the Epiphany in Sioux City.<\/p>\n

This will be the 22nd<\/sup>\u00a0deacon class since 1977 and the seventh class to be ordained by Bishop Nickless. This class of men started their formation in August 2013.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Read on<\/strong><\/a> and you\u2019ll learn the men include a farmer and semi-driver for turkeys, a swine management consultant, a construction worker, an EMS coordinator, and a lawyer. (I think managing swine is an overlooked but important skill for anyone working in the Church.)<\/p>\n
