DIACONATE ORDINATION 2008

Our diaconate ordination was held in St. Arnold Janssen Shrine Parish in Cainta, Rizal last June 28, 2008. Prior to this event, we had our overnight recollection at the Villa Cristo Rey of Christ the King Mission Seminary. The Villa Cristo Rey is the home of our old priests. We thought it fitting that we begin our diaconate reflections with our veteran SVD missionaries who already labored much for the Word of God. Especially moving for us was our visitation to the bed-ridden confreres, especially Bishop Cinches, SVD who was moved to tears when we sang to him his composed "Sunday Vespers." I will be posting some photos of our VCR recollection soon...
