On the morning of June 7, two men entered the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament as deacons. They left as priests “now and forever, in the order of Melchizedek.”
Fr. Pat Bruen, 67, and Fr. Benjamin Schroder, 26, were ordained to the priesthood by Detroit Archbishop Edward J. Weisenburger, the culmination of many years of prayer, discernment, study and formation.
It was a tremendous day for the two men and the whole Church.
