The Seminary Community congratulates five of our seminarians who are in the Third Year of the Stage of Configuration and who were recently conferred with the Ministry of Acolyte by Most Rev. Denis Nulty, Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin. The new acolytes will assist the Priest at the altar, will bring Holy Communion to the Sick and will assist the people at Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. This is an important milestone on the journey towards ordination to the Priesthood and we wish our new acolytes every blessing in their new ministry.
