lose his priesrtly status but says he will continue to serve the church in other ways. The religious ceremony, conducted by Archbishop Dom Oscar de Oliviera, was kept secret to avoid publicity. A civil ceremony was planned later in the bride’s home town of Nova Era. The couple, friends since childhood, are honeymooning on a farm.
