No general admission tickets available for diaconate ordination

The ordination of the first class of permanent deacons for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis will be a great occasion for our local Church. All are invited to pray for these 25 men as their ordination approaches.

However, because of the number of family members and guests invited, there will be no general admission for the ordination liturgy, according to Benedictine Father Bede Cisco, director of the archdiocesan Office of Deacon Formation. All guests attending the liturgy must present tickets.

Each newly ordained deacon will celebrate with his parish community, most on the weekend of June 28-29, Father Bede said. †
