History was made on June 28 at SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Indianapolis. That day, Archbishop Daniel M. Buechlein ordained the first class of 25 permanent deacons in the history of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis. The new permanent deacons will be ministering in parishes and in such places as jails, hospitals and nursing homes. (See also: Photo galleries One & Two | Archive of News Stories)
