WEEKLY REFLECTION
Father Orlando: 30 Years a Priest of Jesus Christ
11-17-2024 | Very Rev. Richard C. Wilson, VF, PastorDear Friends in Christ,
This weekend we celebrate a huge milestone in the life of a priest, the Thirtieth Anniversary of the ordination of Father Orlando!
Father Orlando was ordained to share in the priesthood of Jesus Christ on November 24, 1994, at the Chapel of the Major Seminary of the Yarumal Missionaries in Medellin, Colombia by Archbishop Ignacio Gomez Aristizabal. Father Orlando was ordained with four other priests, but only two of them have persevered in the priesthood to the present day.
