Simple Profession and Silver Jubilee Celebration for Brazilian Friars

On Feb. 8, 2025, the Custody of the Immaculate Conception of Brazil had the joy of celebrating the Eucharist, presided over by Provincial Custos Friar Carlos Roberto de Oliveira Charles, OFM Conv., in which five young men made their First Profession of Vows. Making their vows were Friar Adilson Fernandes, OFM Conv., Friar Gabriel Florenço, OFM Conv, Friar Jaime Sabino, OFM Conv, Friar Marcos Jesus, OFM Conv., and Friar Ramon Nascimento, OFM Conv.

And together with this celebration we join in giving thanks for the 25 years of religious profession of Friar Humberto Martins, OFM Conv. We praise and thank God for the gift of life and vocation of these brothers of ours and we ask that God grant them perseverance in their vocational journey.
