On April 29, 2024, for the first time, Camillians in Vietnam have novitiate house in Viêtnam. We have welcomed 6 new novices for the academic year 2024-2025, with Fr. Joseph Hùng serving as the novice master. This event marks a fresh start for our delegation in Vietnam, as previously, we sent our postulants to Thailand for their novitiate. However, due to recent changes in the Thai government’s visa policy, we are no longer able to send candidates there. Nonetheless, this situation has presented a new opportunity for us. Consequently, following approval from the Thai Provincial and the Superior General, we have established a new novitiate house in Vietnam, marking our inaugural group. Additionally, on April 29th, 14 brothers renewed their vows, while four candidates were admitted to the postulancy.

Fr. John Toai MI
