2024 Ordinandi Dinner Event Breaks Attendance Record

The 34th Ordinandi Dinner was hosted by St. Augustine's Seminary and the six Serra Clubs in the Archdiocese of Toronto on Tuesday, March 19. 

The Ordinandi Dinner honours the Transitional Deacons who study, pray, and reside at St. Augustine’s Seminary and at Redemptoris Mater Missionary Seminary. With God's grace, they will be ordained to the priesthood this May. At this event, each will share the unique story of their call to the priesthood. This is a time for the Roman Catholic community in the Archdiocese of Toronto to come together with their families and friends to celebrate new vocations to the priesthood and religious life amidst good fellowship and good food.

This year, the dinner broke the attendance record with over 1800 participants listening to the stories of 8 men who will be ordained later this year.
