During the Diocese’s Presbyteral Convocation in Avalon held Oct. 16-18, Bishop Dennis Sullivan gathered with his brother priests to honor the 2023 jubilarians, priests of the Diocese of Camden marking 25, 40, 50 or 60 years of dedicated priestly service. Held at Maris Stella Church, Saint Brendan the Navigator Parish, the Jubilarian Mass included remarks from Father Terry Odien – retired vicar for clergy, homilist and jubilarian – who encouraged all priests present to adopt a sense of synodality and journey together in faith with those to whom they minister.
