Record crowd attends 2010 Ordinandi Dinner in Toronto

Written by Luc Rinaldi, Catholic Register Special,

2010 Archdioces of Toronto Ordinandi Dinner
In 1990, 50 people gathered to celebrate the upcoming ordinations of a small group of soon-to-be priests. Twenty years later, a record 1,760 attended this still-growing tradition known as the Ordinandi Dinner.

Held in Toronto’s Pearson Convention Centre on Mar. 1, and hosted by Serra International, an organization promoting religious vocations, the Ordinandi Dinner celebrated its 20th anniversary by welcoming into religious life 10 men from St. Augustine’s and Redemptoris Mater Seminaries.

The event raises awareness of religious vocations and also recognizes those who have answered the call to the priesthood. In addition to showcasing priesthood candidates who will be ordained in May, the dinner also honours priests who have been in service for 50 and 60 years.
