Father José Guadalupe Cadena walked out of San Agustín Cathedral as a newly ordained diocesan priest on Saturday, May 28, 2016. Fr. Joe is excited to spend the summer in Laredo, before returning to Mundelein Seminary to continue his studies.

After a beautiful and emotional Ordination Mass, Fr. Joe celebrated with an intimate luncheon at the Cathedral's parish hall, where he greeted and blessed attendants.

Thank you for all your prayers and continued support for vocations in the Diocese of Laredo. Congratulations, Fr. Joe!
