Laurent-François Déprimoz (13 June 1884 – 5 April 1962) was a Catholic priest who was Vicar Apostolic of the Apostolic Vicariate of Ruanda and then of the Apostolic Vicariate of Kabgayi. ==Early years== Laurent-François Déprimoz was born on 13 June 1884 in Chindrieux, Savoy, France. He was the cousin of Joanny Thévenoud, Vicar Apostolic of Ouagadougou. Deprimoz attended the college at Rumilly for his secondary education, then at the age of seventeen entered the seminary of the White Fathers at Binson. He took the habit at Maison-Carrée on 4 October 1903 and pursued his studies at Carthage, interrupted by military service, until being ordained a priest on 28 June 1908. Déprimoz was first assigned to the mission of Unyaneyembe in the Tabora Region of what is now Tanzania, but could not handle the climate. In 1909 he was transferred to the Buhonga mission, close to Lake Tanganyika, in the healthier mountains of Burundi. On 12 December 1912 the missions of Burundi were detached from the Apostolic Vicariate of Unyanyembe and were joined with those of Rwanda to form the new Apostolic Vicariate of Kivu, with John Joseph Hirth as the first Vicar Apostolic. Déprimoz met Léon-Paul Classe in 1913 when Classe visited in his role as vicar delegate of the south of the Apostolic Vicariate of Kivu. In October 1915 Déprimoz became a teacher at the Junior Seminary at Kabgayi in Rwanda. On 26 November 1919 he was named Superior of the Junior Seminary. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Laurent-François Déprimoz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
