Juniorate Formation

Indeed, Christmas season is an apt time for the Church to reflect on God’s shekinah, his presence among us through the incarnation of Jesus Christ, the beloved Son. In the spirit of this unique event, the religious juniors: Bro. Raymond Balaod, Bro. Caster Von Calipes, Bro. Nelson Raz, Bro. John Christopher Acebuche and Bro. Mark Jonnel Magos, convened at Nazareth Formation House, Dagum Hills, Calbayog city for a three-day Juniorate formation, i.e., December 27-29, 2015. Bro. Claudemir Lemos de Almeida, their assessor, accompanied them in these days of discernment, fraternity and camaraderie. The first two days were intense moments of workshop about one’s ‘Project of life’ and meeting for evaluation and planning for the next biennium. At the end of their meeting, certain tasks were made in the service of the religious juniors: Bro. Nelson as coordinator and Bro. Jonnel as secretary. In the last day, the group went for an outing at Malajog Beach, Brgy. Malajog, Calbayog city. On December 30, 2015, they all bid adieu as they went separate ways, going back to their respective religious communities.
