Graduates of the Master’s in Pastoral Theology program at Chaminade University of Honolulu pose for a group photo on commencement day, May 12, at the Neal Blaisdell Arena. These graduates, who include deacons and deacon candidates and their wives, and a Catholic Charities Hawaii vice president, earned their degrees as part of an arrangement the university has with the Diocese of Honolulu to train those who work in ministry. Pictured from left are Deacon Keith Galang, Deacon Modesto Cordero, Easter Almuena, William Friese, Lina Carahasen, Raul Perez, Jose Ancheta and Tina Andrade. Also receiving degrees, but not pictured, were Michael and Cecelia Weaver. (Photo courtesy of Easter Almuena)
