Thai vocations
showing good signs of revival
BANGKOK: 8th
May 2006 -- Vocations, in the Thai province continue to show
signs of growth. The month of May began with a welcome ceremony for four
new novices at Sampran, followed by a Mass during which five young brothers
renewed their temporary vows. Three of these will head off to practical
training once the new school year opens, which will be within the next
fortnight. Their presence in the formation communities in Hua Hin, Sampran
and at Nazareth will also be a stimulus for other young hopefuls. At the
same time, a further six new postulants have begun their year at Nazareth.. Ban
Nazareth community, as it is known, is in Banpong, Ratchaburi diocese, north
west of Bangkok. Banpong also houses a technical school (Don Bosco) and
the Sarasit community which comprises a primary and junior school, and
parish.
