dscn9868

Last Sunday, on the 4th September, Brothers Alexandre Diop, Elvis Kashali, Eric Mbolifuko and Michel Bamukunda made their religious profession for the first time in the Sainte Claire d’ Assise Chapel of Ogaro, 40 kilometres from Dapaong to the East.
During the Eucharistic celebration, these four young Brothers, one after the other, a candle in hand, pronounced their first Vows before Brother Camille MAHOUMBA, the Visitor of  Saint-Paul District of Western Africa. Then they received the religious habit and the crucifix, signs of their consecration, from Brother Jean HERBINIERE, the Novice Master. The ceremony was closed by the handing out of the Rule of Life of our religious family.

After the ceremony of consecration, the celebration continued with songs of joy and dances in the rhythm of traditional tom-toms. The Mass over, a brotherly sharing took place in the courtyard of the community of the Brothers in a festive atmosphere of joy.
By Brother Gilbert, Assistant Master of Novices.
