On Wednesday, 20th July, Archbishop Ribat conferred the Ministry of Reader on eleven men who are preparing for priesthood at CTI.

The Ministry of Reader is a lay ministry, (lay ministries have replaced what were formerly called "minor orders") but the discipline of the Church requires that all candidates for the priesthood are instituted as Readers and spend some time in its exercise prior to priestly ordination.

Here we see the Archbishop handing the book of sacred scripture  to one of the new Readers.  In his remarks to the new readers, the Archbishop emphasised that ministries are "for the sake of the people". We celebrate not a rite of glorifying the recipients, but one of commissioning them to service:  service to the Word of God, service to the People of God.

Those instituted as readers this year were:

Diocese of Bereina
Mr Vincent Molova

Society of Mary:
Br. Ambrose Kakatai, SM
Br. Peter Puamae, SM
Br. Adrian Meuka, SM
Br. Xavier Sariman, SM

Order of Friars Minor Capuchin
Br Patrick Herok , OFM Cap
Br Isaiah Ita, OFM Cap
Br Freddie Turkik, OFM Cap

Society of the Divine Word                  
Br Charles Manuba
Br Mark Okuk
Br Felix Wik Maine

Congratulations, all!
