On November 21, during the Eucharistic celebration of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary, Brother Provincial, Wenceslas Babei, officially welcomed ten postulants to the Interprovincial Novitiate of Save, Rwanda: two from the province of Madagascar and eight from PACE (including four Congolese and four Rwandans).

The permanent community is composed of Brother Fabien Bulaimu Poyo (Democratic Republic of Congo – PACE), novice master; Brother Jean Luc Randriatahina, assistant novice master (Madagascar-Madagascar); and Brother Louis de Gonzague Karambizi, bursar (Rwanda – PACE).

This novitiate welcomes young people from Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Central African Republic, Tanzania, Kenya and Madagascar.
