Kyle Lang ’19 first discerned his vocation at the Aquinas Institute. On October 2, 2025, he was ordained a deacon in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.
Fr. Zack said about the opportunity to witness the ordination: “Standing once again in that sacred basilica—where, twelve years earlier on October 3rd, I myself was ordained a deacon—I was deeply moved by the faithfulness of God, who continues to raise up new laborers for His vineyard and to call forth generous hearts to serve His Church. May [Deacon Kyle’s] ‘yes’ to God’s call encourage each of us to listen for the Lord’s voice and respond generously with faith and trust.”
Please keep Deacon Kyle in your prayers as he continues his studies in Rome and prepares for priestly ordination next June in his home diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin.
