Marist Novitiate,Tudella , Ja-Ela

The Vocation Camp for  the year 2011 was held at the Marist Novitiate,Tudella , Ja-Ela from  the 26th -28th August 2011.There were ten young men. There were sessions for reflections, meditation and above all the Holy Eucharist. Many Brothers took part in it. On the final day Brother Shanthi the Provincial Superior addressed the boys and invited them to  do a discernment before joining the brothers.

Rev. Father Nihal the principal of Christ King College , Tudella founded by the Marist Brothers officiated the Eucharistic Celebration .There he mentioned how St. Marcellin  helps him to run the school without any difficulty. Whenever there is a problem Father Nihal  along  with the Rev. Sister in-charge of the primary department light up a candle before the picture of our Founder left in the office by the Brothers when they handed over the school administration to the lay principals. Always St. Marcellin has interceded  and problems were solved.

Fr. Nihal requested the students to come-forward and become brothers so that eventually the brothers could take back the school in future.

The students evaluated the whole programme and thanked the brothers for organizing it.
