VALEDICTORY NIGHT/MASS FOR THE OUTGOING 2021/2022 ACADEMIC/FORMATION SESSION

In line with the traditions of mother Bodija, the entire Seminary community congregated at the seminary’s refectory to bid farewell to the graduating year seven reverends and brothers of the 2021/2022 academic/formation session. Having completed their seminary training, and having been nurtured in the soil of Mother Bodija, the Seminary deemed them fit to be sent off from her cossetted walls to the world, where they are expected to exude the virtues drilled into them for the past eight years of their formation. It was an emotional night for the entire seminary community, and was one filled with wise counsels from the Formators to the graduating set. It was also a night of thanksgiving to God for the abiding grace and strength granted to the members of the graduating set to enable them withstand the rigours of the seminary formation. That night also doubled as an award night for seminarians and deacons that stood in their services for the growth and betterment of the Seminary community and the Holy Mass was celebrated the following day in thanksgiving to God.
