Ordination of Priests
Congratulations to our nine new priests
This year, the ordination of six priests took place across four churches in the Diocese of Chester on 20 June, with hundreds of family members and friends gathering to support them as they entered the priesthood. The Bishop of Birkenhead and the Bishop of Chester led the special liturgical services, during which the candidates were ordained and consecrated for ministry as priests within the Church.
