On May 2, 2015 dozens of friends, family members, and Missionaries of the Precious Blood gathered at San Felice in Giano dell’Umbria to celebrate the definitive incorporation of five new members of the Italian Province.  During the Office of Readings, Settimio Carone, Allessandro Manzi, Giuseppe Pandolfo, Francesco Pellegrino, and Emanuele Ruggeri made their life-long commitment to the Congregation.  Following the liturgy, everyone gathered for a banquet to celebrate the joyous occasion.

On Sunday, May 3, four of the newly incorporated members were ordained to the diaconate at the Parish of the Body and Blood of Christ.  Monsignor Matteo Zuppi, auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Rome presided at the liturgy during which Settimio Carone, Giuseppe Pandolfo, Francesco Pellegrino, and Emanuele Ruggeri were welcomed into the Order of Deacons.  Numerous friends of the Province from Putignano, Sonnino, and Rome were present for the celebration.

May God continue to bless the Congregation during the Bicentennial year!
