Candidacy mass


Archbiship Di Noia came to the college yesterday to take our candidacy mass. Archbishop Di Noia is a Dominiacan, orginally from New York and heads the Office of the Divine Word. The mass is celebrated for those entering Holy Orders at the end of the academic year and is a big step in that process. Like most Adult Catholic ceremonies of initiation it involves an act of conscience and a declaration of submission of the reason and will of the candidate to God's love in their lives.

We have 7 candidates going forward to the diaconate this year, from Jamaica, Ghana, Australia, Ireland, England and Scotland. Please remember then in your prayers
