TESTIMONY:
His radical conversion began in 2003. Before his conversion, he was shouting at the top of his lungs from the heavy-metal stage, until his life radically changed - thanks to an encounter with some poor friars at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima. From then on, he has increasingly burned with the fervent zeal to "shout" the music of the Gospel, and to win over many souls to Christ and His Church with his life. He speaks 6 languages; in addition to Portuguese, he writes and speaks Italian and English, speaks Spanish, and can communicate in French and German. To read his full testimony, click here.
