“Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” -Matthew 4:19
Presbyteral Ordination | June 19
Join us for the celebration of the Presbyteral Ordination Mass of Deacons Philippe Dubourdieu, Reyes Palomares, Paul Sizemore and Michael Tracy on June 19 at 6:00 p.m. in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Charleston, SC.
When Jesus first said, “Come after me,” he wasn’t speaking to theologians, monks or men who had it all figured out. He called fishermen—men who worked with their hands, made mistakes, and probably didn’t see themselves as religious leaders.
If you’ve ever thought, “That could never be me,” you might have more in common with the apostles than you think.
