Seminarians Christopher Appel and Mitchell Carey will be formally admitted to Candidacy for Holy Orders by Bishop Daly this weekend. 

Through this rite, the Church formally recognizes the seminarian's intention to receive holy Orders and affirms that he has demonstrated the necessary qualities to proceed toward ordination to the Sacred Priesthood. 

Admission to Candidacy for Holy Orders will take place during the 11:00 am Mass at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Lourdes on Sunday, June 1. Please join us for this special liturgy and pray for our seminarians.
