The Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is the customary day of religious vows for the Resurrectionists in Tanzania. Father Evandro Miranda Rosa, Superior General, received the vows from the tanzanian brothers on August 15, 2024. Five brothers professed for the first time, six renewed their vows for another year, and one Resurrectionist, Emmanuel, who is in formation for the priesthood, made his perpetual profession. A day earlier, 10 candidates were admitted to the novitiate in Buhemba.
YOUNG RESURRECTIONISTS ON VOCATION
I joined the Congregation of the Resurrection because of the way they are, the men of hope. The most attractive thing for me in this Community is the life of brotherhood we have here. Valentino
I was very much inspired by the charism statement which is uncanny and enticing. For me, the most attractive is how brothers live together in love, helping one another in all situations. Also, how the formators are close to us. Before becoming a novice, one must pass through earlier stages: candidacy, postulancy, and then novitiate. The novitiate usually lasts one year, under the guidance of the novice master, where the candidate discerns deeply whether he is being called to the Congregation. This requires a further self-awareness and self-acceptance. Livinus
I joined the Community of the Resurrectionist to become a good priest and religious, and through vowed commitment to the Risen Christ, to work for my conversion and the resurrection of society. I am most attracted by the charism of hope and hope to work so that those in despair would have hope for a better tomorrow. Joseph
I joined the Resurrectionists because of their life, which is a life of living and proclaiming the Paschal Mystery to all people. What attracts me most to this congregation is the community life. Karoli
First, there was a voice I heard in my life. Then the charism of the Congregation is the catalyst for me to join the Resurrectionists’ community. The most attractive for me in this community is its apostolate and charism. Paschal
