Although DJ’s family in the Philippines won’t be able to visit Australia for this very special celebration, attendee numbers will need to be restricted and the Mass won’t be held at Sacred Heart Cathedral, DJ is nevertheless very grateful to be ordained in the year 2020. Especially since his Ordination date will no doubt be significant to his family, friends and community back home in the Manilla; 12 December is the Feast Day Our Lady of Guadalupe, Heavenly Patroness of the Philippines.

The Ordination to the Order of Presbyters of Rev. Denib Josette Mina Suguitan through the laying on of hands and invocation of the Holy Spirit
by Most Rev. Dr Shane Mackinlay, Bishop of Sandhurst
will now take place at Sacred Heart Cathedral, Bendigo 
on 12 December at 11:00am.

Due to government COVID-19 restrictions, attendee numbers need to be limited, so attendance is by invitation only. However, you are invited to share the joy of DJ’s Ordination online via the official diocesan channels.
