Raimented with Christ in our being! The Novitiate took on a brighter tint today as sixteen first year Novices dressed for the first time in their new cassocks. They were conferred their ministries of Lector and Acolyte by Fr Francis Serrao, the Provincial, during the morning Eucharist. After the Holy Mass, the community congratulated them. The senior Novices showed their love by giving handmade wishing cards prepared specially for the occasion. Today is very significant for the new acolytes as it marks the journey from the external to the internal. The chief architect of the day’s events was novice Dolwin Cutinho, the head-guide who will be completing his responsibilities today. As the new acolytes assume their new responsibilities, we congratulate them and pray for God’s blessings on them. “I do not want merely to possess a faith; I want a faith that possesses me.” – Charles Kingsley
