Transitional Diaconate Ordination

Come witness the ordination of Matt Bernhard (Manhattan, IL), Joseph Nguyen (Hinsdale, IL), Frank Perrotta (Yorkville, IL), and Josh Solarz (Roselle, IL) to the transitional diaconate.
After more than seven years of discernment and seminary preparation, this is the moment when these men will make the lifelong commitment to laying down their lives for God and His people. After serving for the next six months in the diocese as deacons, they are scheduled to be ordained priests on June 5, 2027.
