Mass of Ordination to the Permanent Diaconate
Saturday, February 20, 2021
Join Bishop Burbidge virtually as he celebrates the Mass of Ordination to the Permanent Diaconate, marking six ordinandi with an imprint (“character”) which cannot be removed and which configures them to Christ, who made himself the “deacon” or servant of all.
The Mass is not open to the public, but will be available to view via livestream on the Diocesan YouTube Channel.
The men to be ordained are:
Mr. Edward Orr Devlin
Mr. Mark Richard Jerge
Mr. Matthew Kinne Noah
Mr. Richard Vossler
Dr. Michael John Watts
Mr. Aaron Louis Zaccagnino
Mass will begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, February 20, 2021 in the Cathedral of Saint Thomas More in Arlington.
