Our new deacon

With thanksgiving in our hearts and the praise of God on our lips, Brother Mannes Tellis was ordained to the diaconate by Bishop Anthony Fisher, O.P. today. He will preach his first homily at the Conventual Mass on the Fourth Sunday of Advent (23rd December 2007) at 11am in St Dominic's Church, East Camberwell.

Please pray for Br Mannes as he begins ordained ministry in the Church, and for an increase in vocations to our Province of the Order of Preachers.
