Minor orders conferred at the cathedral

Cathedral church of the eparchy of Ss. Cyril and Methodius was a place of joyous celebration this day. Stephen Williams was ordained into minor orders by laying of hands of his Excellency, Bishop John Stephen Pazak, CSsR. Fr. Miroslav Cajka, CSsR served as Master of Ceremonies, assisting bishop John, who conferred minor orders of Reader, Cantor and Candlebearer, as well as Subdeaconate upon our brother in Christ, Stephen Williams. Among the clergy present were Fr. Pavol Dolinsky, pastor of the Nativity of the Mother of God Church in Toronto, as well as Fr. Ron Comeau, and of course the family of Mr. Williams, especially his wife Lucia. For many and blessed years!
