Nine Ordained to Priesthood In Age-Old Rites at Cathedral
Nine men were ordained to the priesthood at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in an Ascension Day service led by Bishop Walter A. Foery. The nine new priests, from Syracuse Rome Utica and Mount Morris, include Thomas M. Doran, Frank L. Sammons, William M. Kelly, Joseph Prugar, John B. O'Brien, Eugene J. Matuszewski, James T. Engle, William T. Larkin, and William P. Conrad. Each was sponsored by a fellow priest or relative and shared first blessings with family and nuns. The ordination was attended by more than 50 priests and monsignors from Central New York. The new priests will celebrate their first masses this Sunday in their home parishes.
