Newly ordained priests Father Romple Emwalu, left, and Father Vincent Anh Vu, celebrate Masses of Thanksgiving, sometimes called their “First Mass.” Father Emwalu’s Mass was May 18 at St. John Apostle and Evangelist Church in Mililani. Father Vu’s Mass was at the Co-Cathedral of St. Theresa on May 19. Bishop Larry Silva ordained both priests on May 17 at the co-cathedral. (Photos courtesy of Dann Ebina)
