Two candidates for the priesthood
Archbishop Paul Cremona on Friday will preside over a concelebrated Mass during which two seminarians will ask the Church to accept them as candidates for ordination to the Diaconate and the Presbiterate, the Curia said. The celebration will be held at Għaxaq Parish Church at 6.30pm.
The two seminarians, who are in their fifth year of formation, are Luke Cutajar from St Paul's Parish, Rabat, and Brian Gialanzè from St Peter in Chains Parish, Birżebbuġa.
The two seminarians will offer themselves to the Church to serve in the ministerial priesthood. Thee Archbishop will call on the candidates to ensure that during the two remaining years to their ordination, they prepare themselves to worthily receive Holy Orders.
The Curia asked the faithful to pray for them.

Good show, I wish that when I was still in my teens that I had the calling. Let us pray God so that they will continue with their studies and on the right track. As Jesus had said, there is plenty of work, but the workers are few.
Thanks to GOD for giving us more modern priests.

Diaconate and the Presbiterate? Peace and health wishes … in the name of JESUS
Catholic Church Catechism Paragraph 1577 - Maltese Version Page 348
Ara 1 Tim 3:1-13, Titus 1:5-9.
Roman Catholic New Testament - Ghaqda Biblika Maltija
Titus 1:5-9.
Tahtar presbiteri f’kull belt, skond ma ordnajtlek. Kull min ikun mahtur… ikun ragel ta’ mara wahda, u jkollu uliedu jemmnu… L-isqof… ghandu jkun… bniedem li jzomm shih mal-kelma.
1 Tim 3:1-13.
L-ghazla ta’ l-isqof.
Din kelma ta’ min joqghod fuqha… Jehtieg, imma, li l-isqof… li jkun ragel ta’ mara… li jkun ragel jaf imexxi tajjeb id-dar tieghu; u li jzomm lil uliedu… Ghax jekk wiehed ma jkunx jaf imexxi ‘l daru stess, kif jista’ jiehu hsieb il-Knisja ta’ Alla?
L-ghazla tad-djakni.
Hekk ukoll id-djakni… Hekk ukoll in-nisa taghhom… Id-djakni jkunu rgiel li ma jkunux mizzewgin ma’ aktar minn mara wahda, u li jkunu jafu jmexxu ‘l uliedhom u ‘l djarhom sewwa.
