Embracing the Salesian Vocation:
Professions of Young Salesians for the PGS Vice-province

By Cl Peter Chanel Kamara

Don Bosco Formation Center-Lawaan, Cebu, Philippines, 20 August 2024 -- On 15 August 2024, the Solemnity of the Assumption of Mary, nine young Salesians made their First Religious Profession at the Shrine of St. John Bosco. Among them were three novices from the Vice Province of Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands(PGS). They are Noah Bisam, Sisto Warito, and Peter Kamara.

Their acceptance into the Congregation was a significant occasion, blessed by the presence of Fr Joseph Nguyen Tanh Phuoc, SDB, the Regional Superior of the EAO Region, who came as a representative of the Rector Major and his council to accept their profession. Also in attendance were the Provincial Superiors of the FIN, PGS, and FIS Provinces: Fr. Gerry Martin, SDB, Fr. Gregorio Bicomong, SDB, and Fr. Fidel Orendain, SDB.

The profession was marked by joy and gratitude, reflecting the deep commitment of the new Salesians and the support of their families and the Salesian community. Salesian priests and lay brothers, family members, members of the Salesian Family, candidates for Salesian life, and many young people gathered to witness and celebrate this milestone in their lives.

This event served as proof of the enduring spirit of the Salesian vocation and the hopeful future of the Congregation, especially in Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. It highlighted the dedication of these young men who have chosen to embrace a life devoted to the young, especially the last, the least, and the lost youth. As they become Salesians, they continue to live out Don Bosco's dream, making him present in the lives of the people they are sent to serve.
