I would like to ask for prayers for a wonderful Nigerian seminarian who is entering the diaconate today in our city. We have very few seminarians and so the Nigerian seminarians are a tremendous blessing to us.

Ezinwanne Justus Igbo is this young man's name, he is so full of zeal and the love of God, we joining in his joy today as he makes this first step to ordination.

He has been in our archdiocesan seminary for the past few years, he will be ordained next year back in Nigeria and then he will come back to us for a certain period of time before returning to Nigeria permanently. At present, half stay with us for life, half stay here for a part of their lives.

Praying, Anne! One of our two new priests here is Nigerian. He has such devotion and zeal. We feel utterly blessed to have him here locally!
