Five new priests for the Institute of the Good Shepherd


Today, Saturday 22nd of September 2007, Cardinal Castrillon Hoyos was sent by the Pope to ordain five new priests for the Institute of the Good Shepherd in Bordeaux, France.
The ordination took place in Saint-Eloi, the historical church which had been restored by Father Laguérie, Superior General, at 9:30 AM.
Cardinal Ricard, President of the French Episcopal Conference of bishops and Archbishop of Bordeaux attended. Cardinal Ricard has been openly criticized by some parish priests for being present in such a ceremony as can be seen on the French TV.

Some links to the French TV:

We will probably get more photographs in a near future.
