In one historic weekend, the Cardinal Archbishop of Guadalajara, José Francisco Robles Ortega, ordained 70 men to the priesthood in two separate ceremonies held on June 4 and 5 at the Mexican Martyrs Shrine in that city.
In the first ordination, 33 priests were ordained and in the second, 37.
In addition, the cardinal ordained seven new deacons on June 3, also at the shrine in Guadalajara.
Father Juan Carlos Lupercio Gómez, the vice-rector of the Guadalajara seminary, told the archdiocese’s weekly publication that “it’s a blessing in the midst of this time in which we’re living — in many sectors — an environment without God.”
