The Sandtrap on Christmas Day!
Greetings from Brazil!
The following was received from Fr. Matt Ryan in Brazil:
"Please find a few fotos taken recently at the Confirmation Ceremony here in the parish , which may be useful for you. The two other priests who appear in a foto work here in the Diocese also. One hundred and thirty seven young people from the parish, from fifteen years upwards, were Cofirmed by our recently appointed new bishop Dom José Valdecy Mendes. Dom Valdecy is from a very humble family and he himself worked as a block layer before he went to the Seminary to study. Unlike many people in this world, he has retained his genuine simplicity of life-style and travels around the Diocese using buses and lifts with me on the back of the bike at times !Thanks to all of you for the good work you are doing on the Borris Website and Happy New Year ! "
Abraços Matt
