MANCHESTER — The Most Rev. Peter A. Libasci, D.D., Bishop of Manchester, the Roman Catholic Church in New Hampshire, ordained Rev. Eric Ouellette to the priesthood at Saint Joseph Cathedral in Manchester on June 1.
“The Diocese of Manchester is grateful to God for the gift of Father Ouellette’s priesthood,” said Libasci. “He is following in the steps of Our Lord Jesus Christ to bring merciful love to the faithful in the form of the sacraments, most especially in the Eucharist, the Source and Summit of our Catholic Faith.”
Ouellette earned a master of arts degree in Catholic philosophical studies and a master of divinity degree from Saint Meinrad Seminary. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering from the University of New Hampshire and is a graduate of St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Dover.
