First profession in India
On April 30, five second-year novices will profess first vows in the Society of Mary.
Bro. Augustus Surin, district superior, will receive the vows at the Marianist Novitiate at Nirmal Deep. Congratulations and fraternal best wishes to these brothers:
Bro. Prakash
Jonnada
Bro. Ajay Soreng
Bro. Roshan Soreng
Bro. Amit Surin
Bro. Peter Tirkey
With the adoption of the new Formation Guide in India, these men will move directly to the scholasticate in Bangalore and will begin studies in the UD program under the direction of
Bro. Tom Oldenski.
Please pray for these members of our brotherhood.
Pastoral Department for Small Christian Communities
After more than 25 years of service to the Archdiocese of Hartford and the wider Church, the Pastoral Department for Small Christian Communities has been closed. The reasons are varied and included in the official
announcement.
Bro. Robert Moriarty has served as the department's director for many years.
The pastorally helpful and important publication,
Quest, will cease with the current issue. The Archdiocese of Hartford and so many others owe a huge debt of gratitude to Bob.
Bob will oversee the closing of the house in Hartford and will begin a sabbatical later this year. Thanks, Bob, for your good service.
