“We have to do everything for love, not out of force”. SFS
During this year of mission, the feast of our patron St.Francis De Sales was celebrated with special focus on 24th of January, 2022 by the Rector, Staff and Students of SFS Minor Seminary, Pudukkottai. The parish priests were invited to celebrate holy mass and share their mission experience with the seminarians. The parish priests were all honoured and given a simple gift as token of appreciation and gratefulness. The sponsors of the programme were from the province and the confreres working in USA Vice Province. Both the missions in India and overseas’ centres were specially remembered and prayed.
As part of celebration of ‘Mission Year’, on feast day of our patron, specially prepared Calendars were released, comprising of pictures of mission stations and centres of the South East India Province, in SFS parish church at Thirugokarnam, in the presence of the apostolic community. It was released by. Rev. Fr. Benjamin Sundar, the Superior and Manager of SFS Printing Press, who did the designing work and was received by Fr. A. Lawrence, the former provincial and now the principal of SFS School, Pudukkottai.
A sincere thanks to our Staff of SFS Seminary, who initiated, planned and executed so well with the collaboration of our confreres. We express our deepest gratitude to the Provincial Administration for their encouragement and support in all these ventures.
