After serving the Church from the communities of Proen\u00e7a-a-Nova and Vila Vi\u00e7osa, he requested permission to return to his homeland, the island of S\u00e3o Nicolau in Cape Verde. The reason: to accompany his elderly mother, who recently turned 100 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">S. Gaspar del B\u00fafalo docked in S. Nicolau (Cape Verde)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Iberian Province of the CPPS established contact with Bishop Ildo Fortes of the Diocese of Mindelo (Cape Verde), who kindly opened the doors of his diocese. Father Il\u00eddio left at the beginning of 2023 and became a missionary in his hometown, Vila da Ribeira Brava (S\u00e3o Nicolau), at the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary. He also serves other communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"926\" data-id=\"50656\" src=\"https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-01-at-13.35.01.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-01-at-13.35.01.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-01-at-13.35.01-768x790.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-01-at-13.35.01-12x12.jpeg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The CPPS missionary priest carries with him the spirituality of the Most Precious Blood.
