Today, former blogger Deacon Gregory Parrott of the Diocese of Winona was ordained a priest of Jesus Christ by His Excellency John Quinn, Bishop of Winona. Likewise, deacons Allan Paul Eilen, Doug Ebert, and former blogger Michael Johnson were ordained to the order of presbyters by their own archbishop. I attended the ordination in Winona, which was beautiful. As with the last one, it nearly brought me to tears several times. I am sure the same is true of the ordination in the Twin Cities. Tomorrow, I attend Fr. Johnson's First Mass of Thanksgiving. Please pray for priests.
