On Saturday, May 14, 2022 at 10 a.m., His Eminence Thomas Cardinal Collins, Archbishop of Toronto, will ordain our four transitional deacons, Rev. Mr. Alexander D'Silva, Rev. Mr. Eduardo Lopez,  Rev. Mr. Adam Pantaleo and Rev. Mr. Fraser McLaren with the Sacrament of Holy Orders as they become priests to the Archdiocese of Toronto. This wonderful event will take place at St. Michael’s Cathedral Basilica and the faithful are all encouraged to join us via the cathedral’s livestream

As a community of faith, let us offer our prayers for Alexander, Eduardo, Adam and Fraser as they are ordained to the priesthood. Let us also continue to pray for all those who are currently in formation to the priesthood at St. Augustine’s Seminary and at the Redemptoris Mater Missionary Seminary. Learn more about St. Augustine's Seminary's work here.
