Tu Es Sacerdos

From the family photo album I finally located this long-lost picture of my ordination to the Sacred Priesthood on Saturday 21 December 1996. Here your blogger kneels before the Most Reverend John Thayer Cahoon, Junior, Bishop Ordinary of the Mid-Atlantic States, as he imposes his hand during the final prayer of the Ordination Rite, just before the Blessing. In the foreground to the left, the server kneeling and holding the bishop's crozier is the Reverend Father Emmett Hugh Dobbs, Junior, and to the right kneels the Reverend Father William C. Crites.

And I was ordained Deacon by Bishop Cahoon in 1986.
