Today my friend, Brother Benedict Maria, a Benedictine monk of Portsmouth Abbey, was ordained to the Order of Deacon by the Bishop of Providence, Richard G, Henning, STD.
He’s doing his seminary studies at the major seminary in Florida.
The Portsmouth Abbey family is blessed to have him among us.
Deacon Benedict Maria’s family came from India and countless friends from around the USA came to the ordination including the many members of the impressive ecclesial movement, Jesus Youth.
May God grant Benedict Maria many years of fruitful ministry.
