FORMATION
With the regard to the two streams of formation that we have as the Oblates’ Congregation, the Province of Lesotho is no exception. It too has the initial and ongoing streams of formation.
a) INITIAL
The Pre-Noviciate programme too has kick off, and it lasts for one year.
Our Novitiate this year is blessed with seven novices – this is really the mystery of God of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit.
The Scholasticate is blessed with rather willing brothers to
serve God with their lives and they are 43 in
all. None for regency this year because of the changed programme in St.
Augustine Seminary where they make up their studies. Two are making it
in International Scholasticate, Rome and one in St. Joseph's Oblate
Scholasticate, Cedara.
b) ONGOING
It has revived and the newly appointed Director of this body is
Fr. Paul Matlosa who is also the member of the formation team at
Mater Jesu Scholasticate at Roma. Fr. Matlosa succeeds Fr. Joseph
Sephamola.
