Ordination 

 

The Bishop normally presides at Diocesan services of ordination to the transitional deacon in March, priesthood in September and vocational diaconate in May. These Diocesan services take place in the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine. Under special circumstance, additional ordinations may occur in parishes. For information on ordinations, or the process leading to ordination in the Episcopal Diocese of New York please visit the Vocations page of this website or contact the Office of Ministry.
