Kenya: Apostles of Jesus Institute – Vatican Permission to Admit New Members
“Considering the efforts made so far concerning formation, this Dicastery (CICLSAL) shares the opinion expressed in your request to revoke the provision prohibiting the admission of new members to the novitiate and religious profession, both temporary and perpetual, and to Holy Orders,” Fr. Wokorach a member of the Comboni Missionaries of the Heart of Jesus (MCCJ) who is heading the Pontifical Commissariat reads an excerpt of the letter from Vatican.
“Therefore, with this letter, we revoke the prohibition to admit new members to the novitiate, and to temporary and perpetual religious profession, and to Holy Orders,” adds the message from the Prefect and Secretary to the Vatican-based Dicastery respectively.
