The Presentation Brothers are very grateful to Canon John O’Donovan, the priests and people of the Family of Parishes for the opportunity to celebrate this special Mass in the Cathedral.
After three years of initial and formal formation and training, a Presentation Novice makes First Profession of Vows. The Vows professed are Poverty, Chastity and Obedience.
These vows are renewed annually for a period of six years, during which the Brothers undergo further education and studies in the Presentation Brothers' mission and ministry. As he opens himself to the grace of God and deepens his generosity and love for God and neighbour, he arrives at a point where he permanently and publicly makes his Profession of Vows to God.
Brother Simon has arrived at that point where he desires to permanently commit himself to the love and service of God and neighbour through perpetual profession of Vows.
This Mass will be recorded. If anyone wishes not to be filmed, please sit in the back of the church.
