Priests of the Diocesan Order

Fr. Dominic Santamaria	Fr. Youssef Fakhry	Fr. Ben Barrameda
	The ministry of a Diocesan (from Greek “to keep house”) Priest is one of being available and involved in the Parish, thus helping the local Bishop. Diocesan priests do not make vows like the Religious. Upon ordination, they promise obedience to their bishop, and celibacy for the sake of the kingdom of God.

Fr. Thomas Chalissery, SDB
Permanent Deacon
	The ministry of the deacon is typically described as a three-fold ministry: a servant of Charity, the Word and the Altar. From the foundation of the order of deacon, those ordained to this order had the special role of caring for the poor and outcast and reminding the members of the Church to do the same. To the deacon is also entrusted the proclamation of the Gospel. Finally, he receives the gifts of the assembly, prepares the altar, assists the presider, gives directions to the assembly, administers communion, clears the table and finally dismisses the assembly.
