On
Saturday November 30th, three of our young aspirants have made their official
entrance to postulate. Augustus Omumani Denis Aoka and Thomas Gwaro are now
postulants. This ceremony was held in the strictest community privacy during
the Saturday morning Mass, at 7am. Relying on the Gospel passage of the day,
the feast of Saint Andrew the Apostle of the Lord, Father Paul Mboche has not
failed to explain the depth and the specificity of this first step. This is a
first "yes" that will determine and guide all the other
"yes" they will be called to give to the invitation of Christ who
constantly speaks to them, saying, "Follow me". This
first "Yes" in the Little Work of Divine
Providence is for
our three young students of third year of Philosophy the
opening of a period of immediate
preparation for the novitiate. By
the official entrance to the Postulancy, Augustus, Denis and Thomas made their the call that
Christ addresses to his Apostles.
While thanking God with them for this first
step they have made in the religious family of Don Orione, let us pray
for them that the Lord who calls
and wants to associate them to his work of love and mercy
strengthens and make them, after the example of St. Andrew, true "fishers of souls" for their own joy, the joy of the congregation and for the greater glory of
God.
