    There is salvation in only one name: Yahweh and his son Yashua!

    Hopefully this new generation will help the church heal from its demon of boy/ child molestation. I am no longer a Roman Catholic because of these past transgressions and cover up but I wish the newly ordained gentlemen well in the calling. LONG LIVE SMA (Smartest Men Alive) and may the spirit of the ancestors be very pleased

    Priests should be allowed to marry;they would get more men willing to serve.

    Congrats Conan, oops Fr. Shillingford from now on. Since SMA I knew you’d become a priest. That makes two (2) of you from the 1997 Class as priests now including Jason from Scotts Head. Hmmm. We could have easily had at least two other guys but God had another calling for the rest of us.

    Good Luck…and spread the Word!

    Congrats to all. Fr. Peter is not Dominican. He is from Kenya. He gave a wonderful thank you speech. You can read his speech on the Diocese of Roseau Website. http://www.dioceseofroseau.org

    Praise the Lord!

    The harvest is plenty but the labourers are few. We need more devoted young men in our church.
