Today, September 1, we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the priestly ordination of Rev. Gordon Anthony Cook, OMI.
Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, on November 27, 1943, Fr. Gordon was ordained to the priesthood on September 1, 1996, at St. Mary Parish in Prince George, B.C., by Bishop Gerald Wiesner, OMI.
For three decades, Fr. Gordon has faithfully answered Christ’s call to priestly ministry and service to the Church. He is now semi-retired and living at Foyer Lacombe in St. Albert.
Please join us in giving thanks to God for the gift of Fr. Gordon’s priestly vocation and in praying for him on this special anniversary.
Lord, send holy and generous men to serve Your Church as faithful priests. Grant them the courage to answer Your call and the perseverance to follow it with joy. Amen.
