A happy and holy Christmas to all. Three servers of the Latin Mass community were welcomed on Christmas Day into the Guild of Saint Stephen: Kyle (front row, second from left) and his son Lucas (front row, third from left); and Tyler (front row, third from right). Servers are typically welcomed into the Guild on the Feast of Stephen (26DEC). The enrollment ceremony was moved to accommodate scheduling. The servers pictured above are members of the Latin Mass (TLM) community associated with Queen of Peace Parish, Esquimalt, BC, in the Diocese of Victoria. Fr. John Domotor, the pastor and priest for the Queen of Peace TLM community, was directed to enroll the candidates by the Rev. Fr. Lee Kenyon, Parochial Administrator of the Victoria Ordinariate and a Director of the Guild in Canada. Fr. Domotor was assisted by Wendell, an Instituted Acolyte (back row, first on the right/square cotta) and Guild member from the Victoria Ordinariate community of Saint John Henry Newman. Welcome Kyle, Luc...
