Feast day in St Paul District – Togo-Benin-Senegal-Ivory Coast – on the occasion of Brother Gilbert’s perpetual vows! Our Brother Gilbert GBANYOBEDJOA pronounced his vows for his definitive commitment in the Institute of the Brothers of Christian Instruction last Saturday, December 29, in the parish church of Saint Monique of Kombonloaga in Dapaong, Togo.

Relatives, friends, a delegation from Benin where he is studying, the consecrated people of the diocese of Dapaong, the Mennaisian Brothers and Laity of Togo-Benin sector, no one wanted to be told about the event. There were many to surround him, they witnessed this commitment and supported it in a fervent prayer during the Eucharistic celebration led by Bishop Dominique GUIGBILE of Dapaong.
