Installation of Lectors and Acolytes

Bishop Uglietto presided at the installation Mass for the institution of lectors and acolytes on Sunday, January 24 at 10:30am. In the rite, each candidate is handed a symbol of the ministry to which he is being instituted, a bible or a ciborium with bread for the respective ministries, as the presider exhorts the men to fulfill the ministry faithfully.

Institution to these ministries are steps on the journey toward priesthood.
