From the Director of Pastoral Formation

TODAY, as we embark on another formation journey, we likewise inaugurate the pastoral formation in the Dominican Studentate. This is only to show that as a formation community, full of hope in God’s providential care, we are once again ready to embrace every opportunity that God would provide us for our own betterment and the spiritual upliftment of those people under our care. It is again a season to be aware of our commitment to the Lord, as we are being slowly introduce to the different priorities and mission of the Province and the Order. If there is an ultimate end in view, my dear brothers, it is nothing but to mold your hearts to the very heart of the Lord, the Good Shepherd, who is always ready to give up His life for His flock. It is always our fervent prayer that at the end of your formation year, each of you would have the heart of Christ burning with zeal for the salvation of man.
