Prayers Upon the Threshold of Diaconate: Miguel Colunga-Santoyo

Of your charity, please pray for Miguel Colunga-Santoyo who will be ordained to the diaconate on Saturday, June 13, the Feast of St. Anthony of Padua. God willing, next year will see Miguel ordained as a priest for the Diocese of Lansing. Here is the beautiful prayer of ordination that will be prayed over Miguel by Bishop Earl Boyea on Saturday:

“Lord, send forth upon him the Holy Spirit, that he may be strengthened by the gift of your sevenfold grace to carry out faithfully the work of the ministry.”

• Do you also feel God may be calling you in prayer to the holy priesthood? Contact Father John Whitlock, Director of Vocations for the Diocese of Lansing, on (517) 342-2507 or jwhitlock@dioceseoflansing.org
