Father Olek and Father Anthony's Ordination

16.03.22

The wait is finally over! Tenison Woods College congratulates Fr Olek and Fr Anthony on their ordination on Saturday 12 March. The St Francis Xavier Cathedral in Adelaide was at capacity, with restrictions being lifted the night before, and many more watching from home on the livestream. Despite their journey to the priesthood occasionally being interrupted by COVID restrictions, the day was even more special as Fr Olek was ordained on the anniversary of St Francis Xavier being declared a saint of the Catholic Church. Fr Olek is also the youngest priest in the Archdiocese!

It was wonderful to see a number of staff, families and parishioners attend the ordination in Adelaide. If you didn't get the opportunity to attend the ordination or watch the livestream, you can find the link here. Please read about this further in the CIM Team News.
