Nicholas Divine, CP, Final Profession of Vows

Our Passionist Family of Holy Cross Province has been blessed by the profession of perpetual vows by our brother, Nicholas Divine, C.P. The profession took place on Sunday, June 7, 2020, in the presence of the Christ the King Community in Citrus Heights, California. Fr. Joe Moons, CP, Provincial Superior, received Nicholas’ profession.

Due to the COVID-19 restrictions on assembly, the Passionist Communities and members of the Passionist Family were invited to join in the celebration by following the profession ceremony via live-streaming video.

Congratulations Nicholas!
