Bishop Larry Silva ordained Sacred Hearts Brother Jeremy Sabugo a “transitional deacon” during a Dec. 8 liturgy at St. Patrick Church in Kaimuki. As a deacon, Brother Sabugo will now be able to preach and assist at the altar during Mass, meanwhile completing his final formation steps toward priesthood. Scenes from the ordination: Brother Sabugo lies prostrate in prayer as the congregation chants the Litany of Saints; Bishop Silva ordains him a deacon with the laying on of hands; Deacon Sabugo embraces his mother, Lourdes.
