Congratulations Deacon Little!

I was delighted to concelebrate the Burlington ordinations last weekend as our own Deacon Robert Little was ordained to the diaconate by Bishop Christopher Coyne at Saint Joseph's Cathedral in Burlington last weekend. Here are some shots from the new Deacon's investiture in a dalmatic for the first time.

Blessed are they who dwell in your house, O Lord.
