• Congratulations to Seminarian Timothy Kawash who was one of nine Josephinum seminarians who were installed as lectors or acolytes on yesterday by The Most Reverend Earl Fernandes, Bishop of Columbus and Josephinum Vice Chancellor.
      Lectors are commissioned to proclaim the Word of God in the liturgical assembly and to instruct others in the faith. Acolytes attend to the altar, assist at Mass, and distribute Holy Communion during the liturgy and to the sick. In the rite, each candidate is handed a symbol of his ministry, either a Book of the Gospels or ciborium.
