Rev. Mr. Dae Wook Kim, M.M.

At a Mass this morning at St. Paul Chong Ha-Sang parish in Flushing, NY, Bishop William McNaughton, M.M, ordained Dae Kim into the Order of Deacons.

Forty Maryknoll priests, Brothers and formation candidates attended, along with about 220 Korean parishioners--including two choirs! At the altar were Fr. Ed Dougherty M.M.,(superior general), Fr. John Eybel, M.M., (rector) and Fr. Gabriel Lee, pastor.

Fr. Joe LaMar, M.M., acted as master of ceremonies and Deacon Paul Chin and Rev. Mr. Paul Kim served as deacon of the Word and of the Eucharist respectively.

Following the Mass, a reception in the parish hall for all who attended the Mass was sponsored by our Initial Formation team.

Following that reception, a formal luncheon at San Su Gap San restaurant to thank Maryknoll was hosted by the parish vocation team

And following two Masses tomorrow (at one of which our new deacon will preach) another reception sponsored by the parish will honor Dae.

M.M. might need W.W. (Weight Watchers)!
