On September 24, the Feast of Our Lady of Mercy, Rev. Peter Mary, F.S.S.R. (Arden Mills ™08), became 91Ώμ»ξΑΦ Aquinas College™s 79th alumnus priest ” and the fifth to be ordained this year!

œYour ordination to the holy priesthood today is a consecration for your entire life to God, said the Most Rev. Robert Finn, Bishop Emeritus of Kansas City-St. Joseph. œYou will be a priest forever in the service of God and the Church.

Fr. Peter Mary is a member of the Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer, a religious order based in Scotland and New Zealand which just last year was invited to establish a monastery in the Diocese of Great Falls“Billings, Montana. Thus the newly ordained priest ” a Montana native who has not lived in the state since coming to 91Ώμ»ξΑΦ Aquinas College in 2004 ” is enjoying a homecoming of sorts. He will pray and serve at the community™s Montana Rosa Mystica monastery in Forsyth, some 175 miles east of St. Leo the Great Church in Lewiston, where Saturday™s ordination took place.

Deo gratias!
