The simple profession of five of our Brothers was celebrated on 1 May 2023 at our novitiate house, Casa Calasanz.
- Sekar Sayala of St. Joseph’s
- Manoj Jojo of The Divine Mercy
- Priyes Tirkey of The Child Jesus
- Niraj Toppo of the most sacred heart
- Jipson Lopez of Our Lady of the Immaculate Heart.
The sixth batch of novices from Calasanz House, the Piarist novitiate house in India, has successfully completed their novitiate formation. Five young Piarists have taken their simple vows and received the habit.
Stalin Nasianse Sch. P., the Vice-Provincial of the Piarist Order in India, also received the simple profession of the brothers.
The families and relatives of the new professed brothers, the priests and some religious sisters from our neighbourhood were present at the ceremony. Many of our neighbours also attended. The celebration continued with an agape.
We, the Piarist Fathers of India, are very happy for the new professed and welcome them into our family with loving hearts. We thank Almighty God for the graces He bestows upon us and we thank Mother Mary and our Founder, St. Joseph Calasanz, for their powerful intercession for us.
