at Saint Mary Cathedral in Lansing as both men received a very direct challenge from Bishop Earl Boyea to “preach Jesus Christ “The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us,” said Bishop Boyea during his homily who has been spoken to you from before you were born that same Word who has commanded you to speak and that powerful Word who has touched your mouth.” Father Joshua Fons hails from the parish of Christ the King in Ann Arbor He was educated at Saint John Vianney Seminary Father Riley O’Shea is a son of Saint Michael parish in Grand Ledge He was educated at Michigan State University We are priests forever!” proclaimed the newly ordained Father Fons to the congregation in his vote of thanks “Jesus today has invited us to share in a particular way in his priestly identity we need your prayers now probably more than ever.” Among those concelebrating Holy Mass at Saturday's ordination were Father Charles Fox Vice Rector of Sacred Heart Major Seminary; Father Jim Olofson Vice Rector of Saint John Vianney Seminary; as well as dozens of priests from across the Diocese of Lansing including 93-year-old Bishop Emeritus Carl Mengeling Father O’Shea was vested in his priestly chasuble by Father Ken Coughlin Pastor of Saint Charles & Helena in Clio Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries at the Diocese of Duluth Father O’Shea now becomes a Parochial Vicar at Saint Thomas Aquinas Parish and Saint John Church and Student Center while Father Fons becomes Parochial Vicar at Saint Patrick in Brighton We are all invited to consider carefully the nature of the order to which these Jesus also chose his apostles to be his sacramental presence for building up the Body of Christ in service to all of us These apostles and those subsequently ordained after them are configured to Jesus the High Priest they are able to offer the Lord’s sacrifice on our behalf to the Heavenly Father You have chosen three readings for our reflection today which address three aspects of your priestly ministry: the Word in Jeremiah let us look at the power of the Word in our life and ministry The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us and that powerful Word who has touched your mouth then that task of opening the door to others in order for them to come to faith now falls to you Let not the opportunity for another human being to receive the gift of faith be lost by your negligence in proclaiming Jesus Christ it is more than merely proclaiming words about the Word I know this does not describe you at this point but as you look ahead never let your words be hollow may your words always be the Word whom you have accepted as your Lord and with whom you have an ever-deeper friendship growing in that relationship with Jesus from today forward will be signs of the power and blessing of Christ’s Lordship in your own hearts and thus an appeal to the hearts of all men and women Then your words announcing the Word will be rich It is not that of those who built the Tower of Babel so long ago wanting to make a name for themselves it is Christ within us who impels us to speak himself to the world Christ sent me “to preach the Gospel” (I Cor 1:17) and woe to me if I do not preach it” (9:16) we should always first speak thanks to God and praise to Him for his gift in our lives let us expand our horizons regarding this Word of God We will end up speaking far more words in contexts other than that of the Worship of God on the day of judgment people will render an account for every careless word they speak and by your words you will be condemned” (Matthew 12:36-37) but it was always very clear to him that these were indeed the words God wanted him to speak As God told Jeremiah in our reading today: “To whomever I send you Let us not be careless then about what we say James (3:1-12) warns us of the great power of the tongue We know that we cannot pull back a harsh word that has been uttered so we should never be idle about our speech are always at the beck and call of the one who has touched our mouths Let us always think and pray first and may our intentions be formed by the prayer of Samuel May God be as pleased with you as he always is with Jesus But always live out what was told you are your Diaconate Ordination: “Receive the Gospel of Christ and practice what you teach.” May I this day imitate our Lord and also model this service to

with solar and onshore wind power or hydroelectricity The Group is investing heavily in the research and development of these emerging renewable energies in a drive to create channels of industrial production in line with its carbon neutrality targets According to the International Energy Agency three-quarters of the efforts made to cut greenhouse gas emissions will have to come from immature technologies1 R&D is playing a crucial role in the emergence of these “new” renewables the Group spends €190 million on R&D and employs more than 900 researchers in this activity Our corporate R&D centres are focussing on green gas and green electricity technologies which are both essential resources to reach carbon neutrality of our energy system Every one of these resources is perceived as a global sustainable and profitable energy solution for our customers.  “Working on a variety of technologies related to energy production, transport, storage and use is crucial.”   Dr. Jan Mertens, Scientific Director, ENGIE Research (Report on Emerging Sustainable Technologies) These major scientific advances are creating opportunities to recover this type of waste by developing new industrial solutions.  which consists of producing synthetic hydrogen or methane from excess renewable electricity and then re-injecting it into the natural gas network at the request of our customers Power-to-gas was successfully tested in the field between 2018 and 2020 in northern France by our GRHYD project We succeeded in decarbonizing the gas in the distribution network of a housing estate in Dunkirk by injecting a variable portion of between 0% and 20% of hydrogen.  This breakthrough will then be developed quickly on several continents. Finally, the ENGIE Lab CRIGEN is also conducting ambitious research into the use of liquid renewable hydrogen to decarbonize heavy transport, starting with shipping which uses heavy fuel oil that produces high levels of greenhouse gas emissions A first pilot project will be launched in 2024 followed by deployment in ports and airports ENGIE is leading the way in the development of industrial channels of production of the emerging renewable

Forvia) Florent Ménégaux (CEO of Michelin) and Carlos Tavares (CEO of Stellantis) The French Ministers for Energy Transition and Industry also attended the inauguration “Forvia believes that hydrogen technology is the only credible complementary alternative to battery-powered electrification we cover 75% of the hydrogen mobility value chain from fuel cells to storage systems,” said Patrick Koller Symbio is confident in the potential of the fuel cell and is counting on its partners. Forvia, for instance, is working on tanks that will take up less space. In addition, Stellantis’ decision to support business customers with private stations will make refuelling easier, until the AFIR directive takes effect around 2030 the price of hydrogen will have fallen to €5-6 per kilo instead of 10 today Created in 2010, the French company began by exploiting a technology developed by the French Atomic Energy Authority (CEA) and put its first hydrogen Kangoo on the road in 2012. Michelin then acquired a minority stake in the company in 2014 before acquiring a 100% stake in 2018. Since then, things sped up. Forvia (in 2019) and then Stellantis (in 2023) have joined Michelin as equal stakeholders The year 2023 was already a pivotal year for Symbio besides the inauguration of SymphonHY.

The objective is to achieve zero-carbon for 100% of the hydrogen used at the Belle-Étoile industrial site in Saint-Fons near Lyon in the heart of the French Vallée de la Chimie (Chemistry Valley) the HyDom project will enable the installation of an 85-megawatt hydrogen production plant using the water electrolysis process at the Belle-Étoile site with a production capacity of 11,000 metric tons of low-carbon hydrogen per year The plant will be powered by the low-carbon electric power mix it will supply 100% of the annual production of hexamethylene diamine a key component used in the production of polyamide The project will eventually prevent the emission of 84 kilotons of CO2 each year will be used in various applications in major industry sectors The location in the Vallée de la Chimie within the vicinity of major transport routes opens up opportunities for the creation of a more complete hydrogen ecosystem The first phase of the project will consist of building up and ascertaining technical concepts and integrating the low-carbon hydrogen production plant within the larger production process of hexamethylene diamine Considering the high-power scale of the future facility the HyDom project is being developed in close collaboration with RTE (an organisation in charge of managing the French power grid) As a priority project for the industry’s zero-carbon strategy and for the France 2030 investment plan HyDom is supported by the French government and has been presented to the European Commission for public funding “In line with the goals set out in the France 2030 investment plan for a resilient and decarbonised industrial sector Hynamics is proud to support leading hydrogen-consuming industrialists in their decarbonisation efforts,” said Hynamics CEO Christelle Rouillé “The scope of the project launched in partnership with Domo Chemicals reflects our  expertise in developing industrial electrolytic hydrogen production projects with a strong environmental impact In replacing the unit that currently produces hydrogen from natural gas our project represents an important step towards industrial sovereignty and reaching our climate

recycled silicone France – Elkem Silicones has launched two 100% recycled silicone-based additions to its release liner Silcolease range Silcolease RE Poly 11362 and Silcolease RE Poly 368 are now available for pre-commercial sales and are solvent-free products based on fully recycled silicones offer “superior carbon profiles and deliver identical technical performance to their non-recycled counterparts.” They are the first commercial products from Elkem’s chemical recycling pilot unit in Saint Fons, France. (ERJ report) The products deliver “the same non-stick properties and easy release of self-adhesive materials [that] our customers expect from us,” said Agnes Jolly head of research & technology for silicone fluids at Elkem The company said it has conducted “extensive tests and trials” to ensure a seamless integration into existing processes Elkem carried out trials with German machinery maker Kroenert GmbH & Co KG earlier in the year to validate the performance of the recycled silicone demonstrated “the same processing capabilities as virgin ones even when running at high processing speed.” The materials were developed using Elkem’s depolymerisation technology and are claimed to have a 70% lower carbon footprint compared to their non-recycled counterparts A subscription to European Rubber Journal includes: Already a subscriber?
