Last weekend was a special time of celebration for the Italian Province of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood.

The joy began on Saturday 9 November in the Sanctuary of San Gaspare in Albano Laziale with the definitive incorporation of six new missionaries: Alberto Celani, Angelo Anatriello, Eugenio Rinaldi, Francesco Cardarelli, Gaetano Noto and Gianluca Gibilisco. The incorporation establishes the entry into the Congregation after the years spent in the seminary. The ceremony, presided by the Provincial Director Don Terenzio Pastore, was full of emotions. All the missionaries of the province and Fr Augusto Menichelli representing the General Curia participated.

Many people participated and shared this moment of joy and prayer. The six new missionaries received the missionary cross, it is the symbol of belonging to the Congregation and reminds them and all of us that the Missionary is a living witness of the Word of God. We accompany these new brothers with our prayer united in the Blood of Christ.
