On August 14, 2021, three Indonesian
Brothers made their perpetual vows: Grasiano Mbaling (Ruteng Diocese), Oskar
Anto (Ruteng Diocese), and Ambrosisus Atok (Atambua Diocese). The theme was:
“Because You Have Grace Before God” (Luke, 1:30). The Eucharistic Celebration
began at 17:00 pm, at the community of Liliba, Kupang. It was presided over by
the parish priest of St. Joseph the worker, Penfui, and 3 concelebrant religious
priests.
Due to the restrictions for covid-19, their parents, some nuns and closest neighbors were present at the celebration. Others took part in the celebration via live streaming. Brother Aurelio Arreba, as delegate of the Indonesia-Timor Leste, accepted their vows in the name of the Superior General.
The speeches
were followed by a gathering together in a family atmosphere. We pray to God
these three Brothers will always be with Him and remain faithful to the vows
they have made to the end.
