    My congratulations to you brothers!!! The friars of the Holy Trinity Province have placed their trust and confidence in you and chosen you as their leaders. Remember the words of our Lord: “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ But not so among you on the contrary, he who is greatest among you let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves. For who is greater, he who sits at table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.” Luke 22:25-27. All the best.
