Traditionally on December 8, on the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is one of the patronal feasts for the Resurrectionists, in the South American Region, brothers take their religious vows. This year, on December 8, Father Jan Franciok celebrated the 25th anniversary of his perpetual vows, brothers Flavio, Franco, Leandro, Nucinaldo, and André (in Rome) renewed their religious profession, while novices Adilson Barros and Guilherme Ferreira took their first vows. They were received by the Regional Superior, Father Luciano Piotrowski during a solemn mass at the Church of the Resurrection in Resende RJ (Brazil).
