I just received a phone call from my provincial. During the call he informed me that my request to make my solemn profession was approved! I will profess the evangelical counsels of obedience, chastity and poverty on August 15th in Willimansett, Massachusetts. I am so excited! I called the friar who introduced me to the community and I asked him if he would pray about being my witness. I think he was honored!

Thanks to all who read this and pray for me. I am grateful to God for all of you.

in God’s love,
friar Matt
