Ordination Liturgy Planning
  • Ordinand Information

    This information is for multiple purposes. In addition to assisting with the preparations for your ordination, it will also be used for your registration with the Church Pension Group and in the Diocesan Clergy Database.
  • Please provide your name as you want it to appear on your ordination certificate and in the service leaflet. Please include any appropriate prefixes, e.g. Dr., or suffixes, e.g. JD, as they pertain to you.

  • Presenters

    Your ordination presenters are three representatives of the church at large, icons of God's presence around the ordinand. Each ordinand should have at least one lay person and one ordained person; it is expected that ordinands to the diaconate invite a deacon to serve as one of their presenters.

  • Torch bearers, a crucifer or a thurifer welcome!
  • Ordinands may wish to have banners from their congregations and seminaries, with a person to carry each banner. How many banners/banner bearers will you have?
  • Hymn Requests

    Note that music planning is guided by the Grace Cathedral music director, who invites requests, not all of which can be honored. If music is not in The Hymnal 1982, providing the title and tune name will make it easier to use.
