Honolulu seminarian Nick Brown receives the institution of acolyte Oct. 9 at Sacred Heart School of Theology in Hales Corners, Wis., from Bishop Anthony Taylor of Little Rock, Ark. Being named an acolyte is an important milestone on the path to priesthood. Brown is expected to graduate in May 2015 and be ordained shortly thereafter. Sacred Heart, in suburban Milwaukee, is North America’s largest seminary specializing in the formation of men over 30, with about 30 U.S. and Canadian dioceses and religious orders using it for the formation of future priests. Brown is one of two Honolulu seminarians enrolled there. (Photo courtesy of the Sacred Heart School of Theology)
