On the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Br Marko Culjak, SJC made his Profession of Final Vows with the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius, offering his life to Christ through the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience according to the Rule of St. Augustine.

Brother Marko encourages the faithful to pray for priests and those preparing for Holy Orders. Recalling a saying attributed to St. Teresa of Ávila, he notes, "If we have enough language to criticize priests, we should have twice as much to pray for them."

Please keep brother Marko and all the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius in your prayers.

Pray for your priests🙏
