Here’s some from Saint Mary’s:

We recently had a pair of Ordinations along with Solemn High Mass, one man was ordained to the Priesthood, while another was ordained to the Diaconate. This was a beautiful service which lasted over 2 hours. there were 10 Acolytes and 12 Clergy including the Bishop (who retired earlier this year). I sat with a friend who had bought all the vestments that the clergy worse during the service, and we wore both surprised that all of the vestments matched and that everyone was provided for.
The Master of Ceremonies was a man who survived a series of massive strokes that he had about 2 years ago. During the first few days, the doctors all said that he was going to die, then they said he was going to “be a vegetable”, then they said he would never walk again, then they said he would need a walker…
Congregations all over the world prayed for him. Jews went to the Kotel and placed his name in cracks in the wall (Palestinian terrorists actually stopped bombing the buses that were going there so they could do that). And, Although Steve still has a couple of major problems, those who don’t know him would not be able to tell that he had one major stroke, let alone a series of life threatening strokes.
If I can get or find photos of the Ordinations, I’ll post them or the links.
Your Brother in Christ, Michael
