Consecration Prayer over Candidate
This prayer "seals" the ordination of the candidate and is said jointly by the bishops and priests - asking the Holy Spirit to set the candidate aside forever as a priest. Note the priest in focus - he is a member of the Orthodox Church, while the priest in front of the candidate is Roman Catholic. |
Fr. Joe Spina, OSF
God bless the Franciscans! |

Chris Sobel, Jim Marsh
Acolytes. Jim is also a CACINA seminarian. |
Matthew Cowden
Master of Ceremonies and a student for the priesthood in the Episcopal Church (as well as a heck of a dear friend). Matthew was amazing, whipping all the clergy in order before Mass.. even leading us all in prayer! Imagine a student for the priesthood leaving six bishops impressed! Nice job, my friend - THANK YOU! |
