The first profession Eucharist was celebrated by Fr Timothy Choi Won-cheol, SDB provincial of Korea and attended by a few SDBs and close family members of the novices.

       In the context of the Korean Catholic community, with a sharp decline of vocations, this is the largest number of newly professed among the 50 male religious congregations currently in South Korea. Fr Felix Wee, Novice director, has accompanied them with closely with his formation team for the past year.

More than 200 Salesian Family members attended the perpetual vows ceremony on this day, which was attended by many for the first time since the start of the pandemic.
