Feb. 25th 2017 was indeed an auspicious day for the Carmelites of the Vicariate of Tanzania and for the Karnataka Goa Province. On this gracious day Deacon Raymond Sangu OCD the 8th Tanzanian native was raised to the Order of Priesthood by his Grace Rev Josephat Louis Lebulu in Holy Family Parish, Njiro Arusha. Around 30 priests concelebrated and it was for the first time all the local Tanzanian Carmelite priests were present. The Sacred Liturgy was well organized by the Parish priests and the Vocation Director of the Diocese of Arusha. After the Eucharistic celebration short felicitation was organized by the Parish to congratulate the newly ordained. Rev. Fr. Marlon Rodrigues, the Regional Vicar proposed the vote of thanks on behalf of the Carmelites to all those who helped to make this day a memorable one.
