ORDINATION OF KEVIN GONSALVEZ
PLUMPTON PARISH, SATURDAY 30TH JANUARY

Kevin Gonsalvez, a Capuchin from the Tamil-Nadu province in India, was ordained to the priesthood at the 6pm parish mass by the Bishop of Parramatta, Kevin Manning.

Sometime ago, Kevin and his Provincial Minister, asked and received permission for Kevin to come to Australia to be ordained to the priesthood since most of his family live here.

It was a joyous occasion for the Gonsalvez clan and for the Capuchins of India. It was also a wonderful finale for the week of SAPCC meetings in Plumpton.

Kevin has returned to his province to begin his priestly ministry. May God bless him in his vocation as a Capuchin priest.

If you also feel drawn to the Capuchin way of life why not have a chat to our Vocation Director?
