Happy New Year !
Well, it is not the dawn of 2025 quite yet - but for us at the College we are just about to begin our new Formation Year. For the past fortnight the new members of our Community have made their ‘ induction period’ – getting used to their new surroundings and also, along with some of the other seminarians from different years who have come back early to help them settle in, taking a trip or two outside Rome to get used to the localities (and the language) with which they will become increasingly familiar over the next years.
Some photographs of these trips, including the Papal Audience which we were privileged to be part of , can be found under 'News' on this website and also on the college Facebook pages.
Once again, thank you for the prayerful interest and support which you give to us as the months pass by; Oremus pro invicem – let us pray for each other.
Father Philip
