Bishop Michael McKenna will ordain deacons Diep Quang Nguyen and Thao Van Nguyen to the priesthood during 6pm mass.
"Both these men have taken a journey of discernment over the last 10 years and are now in their final preparation for ordination," Bishop McKenna said.
"As deacons, they have served in a number of parishes in the diocese, from Lithgow to Dubbo and in between, and the joy surrounding their ordinations is shared by many.
"Their immediate families will be watching the ordinations via live stream broadcast from their home towns in Vietnam."
