Amen.

Subdeacon Lance,
Glory to Jesus Christ!
Congratulations! This is wonderful news.
Make sure you keep spiritually focused during this preparatory time. Watch out for outside forces that may distract you from your goal. Your prayer life is very important now.
Are ordination dates announced for any other subdeacons?
