Rectors from EAO join in Region Retreat
MANILA: 8th November 2009 -- 64 Rectors from many of the
provinces in the EAO region (involving Pakistan, Mongolia, Cambodia,
Thailand, Myanmar, East Timor, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands,
Philippines South, and Philippines North) are gathered in the FIN
retreat house in Batulao, southwest of Manila from 3-10 November 2009
for the regional retreat. This is organized by Fr. Francis Gustilo,
in-charge of the regional formation team, and preached by Fr. Frank
Moloney, provincial of Australia and renowned biblical scholar. The
theme of the retreat is Discipleship in the Gospel of St. Mark.
While some of the Rectors will be heading home
afterwards, others will remain and will be joined by other Rectors from
Korea, Japan, and Vietnam for the formation of new Rectors in the
region the week after. About 40 are expected to attend this formation
from 11-14 November in the same retreat house.
From 15-18 November, mission animators from EAO
region will also gather for a meeting at the Don Bosco Street Children
Village in Alabang, a suburb of Metro-Manila. 18 confreres are expected
to attend, while FMAs from the region also signified their intention to
join the seminar. Fr. Vaclav Klement, Councillor for the Missions, is
coming to animate the seminar.
(Note: possible break in service this week as your news 'compiler'
is most likely away from internet contact)
