Invitation from Fr. Chris: Please join me in congratulating and offering best wishes to
Richard Ashburn, who will be ordained on Saturday, October 2nd to the Permanent Diaconate. A Mass of Thanksgiving for Ordination will be celebrated on Sunday, October 3rd at 11:30AM at St. Helen’s (Norwell) with parish reception to immediately follow at St. Mary’s Parish Center (Hanover). All are welcome to attend !
We are thrilled to have newly ordained Deacon Roger Vierra and Deacon John Murray assigned to our Collaborative. You will see more of them over the coming months so please feel free to introduce yourselves to them as they get to know parishioners within the Holy Mothers Collaborative.
We are thrilled to have 2 full-time seminarians and 3 additional men from the Holy Mothers Collaborative enrolled as Deacon Candidates in the Diocese. This after having a deacon and priest ordained from our parish last year we could not feel more blessed. Please pray for these men, their success and the continued interest of our parishioners in answering God's call.
Congratulations and blessings to our own "Fr. Mark" Storey on his ordination to the Priesthood on Saturday, May 24 at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross in Boston.
Congratulations for Deacon Joe Harrington! Deacon Joe was one of 12 men ordained as Permanent Deacons on Sept. 21 at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross in Boston.
