Another Permanent Deacon ordained from Taiping

Charles Ambrose Lazaroo was ordained a Permanent Deacon on Oct 2 at Taiping Catholic Church (TCC). He is the third to be ordained a permanent deacon from the parish.

Bishop Sebastian commented that TCC has been blessed with three Permanent Deacons and he hopes that in future he will ordain more priests from here.

In his homily, Bishop Sebastian thanked Rev Charles for yielding to God’s call to serve faithfully and with commitment. He was presented the Book of Gospel. He also thanked Charles’ wife, Freda Gomez, and the children, for their  full support in surrendering Deacon Charles to God.

Deacon Charles was initiated in 2017 by then parish priest, Fr Jude Miranda. He underwent the Initial Studies at the College General in Penang in 2018.

A crowd was present to participate in the celebration, but they all observed the SOP.

A buffet fellowship dinner was held at the St Louis Hall after the ordination.

We will work with and support our newly ordained Permanent Deacon Rev Charles to bring our parish to greater heights to give glory to God’s name.
