Jesuit steps in formation

Just before Christmas, on the feast of St Peter Canisius, Luke Taylor SJ made his first vows at Manresa House, the Jesuit noviciate in Birmingham. You can read more here...

And then a couple of weeks ago, on the 24th January, Maximiliano Koch SJ was ordained to the diaconate at St Peter's, Stonyhurst, by Bishop John Arnold. Photos from the Mass and a summary of events and Bishop John's homily can be found here...

We send both Luke and Maximiliano our congratulations and very wishes in these new stages of their journeys with God, and their formation and incorporation into the Society of Jesus. We pray for them, and for all those in formation in the Ignatian family - and for more young people to hear God's call to follow Jesus in this way.
