Diocese of Erie welcomes two newly ordained priests
The Diocese of Erie ordained two men into the sacred priesthood Friday night at Saint Peter Cathedral.
The two new priests are Reverend Brandon Matthew Feikels, who is a 2017 graduate of Gannon University and Reverend Michael Christopher Scanga, who also graduated from Gannon University.
Bishop of Erie, Reverend Lawrence Persicio, said this is the moment they officially become priests.
'So, it's important because they receive the sacrament of ordination and it enables them to work and take care of things as a priest,' he said.
Bishop Persico said the two new priests will eventually receive their assignments from him.
