Sampran, Thailand, 11 May 2020 -- Happy Eastertide! How are you? We hope that all of you are well especially in this difficult times. In Thailand we try to assist our neighbors in need as much as we can through our solidarity in action.


But we also have some very good news: this formation year we have started (after one year break, on 1 May 2020) a new year of novitiate (Novicemaster Fr Anthony Boonlert) with four new novices. On the photo taken at the beginning retreat of the novitiate guided by Fr Aaron Alcoseba,our Vice-provincial, you can see all four of them (from left to right):


Wicharit Manipahison John Bosco


Prakit Singhaart Dominic Savio


Supanimit Jonlamonton Michael


Tran Van Nho Francis Xavier.


We ask your prayers for them and for our 13 'postulants', the highest number so far in Thailand. We have to thank God for his wonderful love for us. With the Covid-19 pandemic, our new school year will be moved to 1 July, 2020, instead of the usual time-table of 16 May.


Thanks for your prayers!
