Archbishop Christian Lépine will Mr. Fabrice Vaussenat to the permanent diaconate on December 13, 2024, at 7:30 PM at Blessed Marie-Anne Blondin Parish, located at 4565 rue Notre-Dame Ouest, Montreal, H4C 1S3.

Mr. Vaussenat, born on November 10, 1970, and husband of Nathalie Estelvino, is a health researcher at ETS. Alongside his scientific career, he pursued studies in biblical theology, becoming a Benedictine secular oblate in 2020. He is actively involved in his parish and volunteers with SASMAD, offering support to the sick. His writings on the diaconate and Ignatian prayer reflect his personal reflections, and he also contributes to the work of the Synod on Synodality and the missionary transformation of the diocese.

You are all warmly invited to join in this important event for our Church in Montreal.

Fraternally yours,
Mr. Réjean Leblanc, p.d.
Office for Pastoral Personnel for the Permanent Diaconate
