One of our members, first known to us as Jon, then about a year ago as Deacon Jon after his diaconal ordination, will be undergoing on the 6th of June in Harrisburg PA the sacrament of ordination to the Holy Priesthood. Henceforth he will be known to us all as Fr. Jon. I invite all to lift up prayers of rejoicing to the Lord along with best wishes for many years for Fr. Jon in his service in our Lord’s vineyard.

May God grant our friend and brother, Father Jon, many years in His service.
