Arlington Bishop Paul S. Loverde called eight men to Holy
Orders on Holy Thursday and announced that the Arlington
Diocese will have only one combined ordination ceremony June
6 at the Cathedral of St. Thomas More in Arlington. There
will be no diaconate ordination May 30.
The bishop will ordain one man, Colin Davis, to the diaconate
during the combined ceremony. The seven deacons to be
ordained to the priesthood June 6 include: Dort Bigg, Kevin
Dansereau, Joe Farrell, Drew Haissig, Brian McAllister, Rich
Miserendino and Noah Morey.
Rev. Mr. Thomas Gallagher has elected to delay priesthood
ordination and will be assigned to a diocesan parish for the
summer and for next year, according to Father J.D. Jaffe,
diocesan vocations director.
