These young men had begun their religious formation as follows: in 2007 for Fathers César and Félix, and in 2008 for Fathers Manuel and Vasco. Their religious course had begun by 6 years of formation in Mozambique, then 2 years at the Interafrican Novitiate ‘Le Cénacle’ in Senegal. After their first profession in 2014/2015, they undertook their studies of theology at the Catholic University of the Congo at Kinshasa (Dem. Rep. of Congo), at the end of which they followed the 3-month Programme of Preparation for Perpetual Vows (P4) at Congo-Brazzaville.
