Three Diocesan seminarians received Admission to Candidacy on November 4, 2009 in a ceremony held at Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary in Philadelphia. The new Candidates are Nick Cottrill, Michael Burbeck and Ryan Elder. The Rite of Candidacy offers the seminarians the opportunity to publicly express their intention to receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders. Cardinal Justin Rigali of Philadelphia celebrated the Mass and presided at the Rite of Candidacy. Bishop Burbidge and Fr. Shlesinger concelebrated the Mass.
