Professed Monks

On Sunday, August 16, four brothers made vows: Br. Barnabas made solemn vows (i.e., for life), and Br. Sebastian, Br. Pascal, and Br. David made simple vows (i.e., for three years). After the ceremony they all stood with their mothers for a very special picture. We are so grateful for the presence of these men in our community, and therefore so grateful to the women who raised them to follow God!
