MSC Vocation Office in Vietnam reports they have had their monthly meeting with aspirants. There are 16 aspirants! They shared how they were coping with lockdown and what strategies they used to strengthen their resilience.
The most common two were, learning new skills and volunteering where they could. They finished their meeting with some words from the pastoral letter of the Archbishop of Saigon, which was based on Hebrews 6:18 “KEEPING OUR HOPE”. Thank you, Minh MSC (Director) and Tinh MSC and Quy, MSC (assistants).
