July 2, 2019 Mount St Joseph, Bangalore. On the feast day of St. Bernadino Realino and companions, the Mount St Joseph Community was happy to welcome the 10 Novices to the Society of Jesus. After completing their 2 years of Pre –Novitiate formation in Loyola, Mangalore and Navasadhana, Hassan, they have come to do their 2 years of Novitiate formation in Bangalore.
Fr. Anthony Joseph, the Rector of Mount St Joseph Community invited the novices to inherit the rich heritage of St. Ignatius of Loyola and grow in deep personal love for Jesus Christ in their Novitiate life so as to withstand the challenges of the world.
Fr. Joseph Rodrigues, the Novice Master presented them with a copy of “Constitutions of the Society of Jesus” and Fr. Antony Pais, the Assistant Novice Master presented them a picture of “Sacred Heart of Jesus,” which signifies that they incorporate the ‘way of life’ of the Jesuits and fall in love with the person of Jesus.
