In this day of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple, we rejoice at the celebration of the day of Consecrated Life. Today also, in the Community of the Novitiate Saint Ricardo Pampuri, Province Saint John of God of Latin America and the Caribbean, we rejoice because of the new to members of this house; Anezio Lopes, from Brazil, and Yeison GONZÁLES, from Colombia. We pray to God for the lives of the new novices, and that they may fully live the experience of hospital religious life; following Christ the Good Samaritan, just as our father Saint John of God did, who consecrated himself to live poor, obedient, chaste and practicing hospitality.
