Here at The American Way, we like to keep track of the Neo priests serving our parishes (see here for more details). As we near the end of Easter, we come also once again to ordination season, which means around the country new men are being consecrated to serve Christ and his Church in the ministerial priesthood.
As far as we can tell, among these are nine new faces from the Neocatechumenal Way's Redemptoris Mater seminaries, so we take what we anticipate to be a yearly opportunity to update both our roster and you, the discerning Catholic in the pew.
Ordained this past week were Fr. Patricio Chuquimarca (Denver) and Fr. Saul Araujo (Miami).
To be ordained this coming weekend are Jose Ignacio Montero Burgos (Boston), Juan Esteban Rojas (Dallas), and Wesly Taveras Medina (Philadelphia). Ricardo Batista Comim will also become the first RMS ordinand for the Diocese of Bridgeport, Connecticut.
The following week, they will be joined by Frenel Phanord (Newark). Then, in mid-June, the class will be rounded out by Juan Pablo Noboa and Pablo Villa, both from the Archdiocese of Washington.
Please pray for these newly ordained and soon-to-be ordained men, that the Lord will give them strength and grace in their vocation. Lord, grant us many holy priests!
If you know of any other Neocatechumenal priests in your area, whether newly ordained, long established, or anywhere in between, please let us know so we can add their names to our directory.
