Two newly ordained priests to serve Brooklyn
The Right Reverend Lawrence Provenzano, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Long Island, ordained three priests at the Cathedral of the Incarnation in Garden City, two of whom currently serve parishes in the Archdeaconry of Brooklyn.
The ordination liturgy took place Saturday morning, December 8.
The sounds of ancient prayers, prayerful silence, traditional hymns and lively music filled the air of the Cathedral as the nearly 600 people in attendance proclaimed their will that Christopher Ballard, Julie Hoplamazian and Alejandra Trillos be ordained priests. The three new priests have been transitional deacons since their ordinations to that order of clergy earlier this year.
