Ben Tethool, Regional Superior, Japan
MSC Japan
Peter Hendriks writes: Regional Superior Japan: Bernard Tethool has been appointed the new Regional Superior of Japan and his appointment will take effect on 1st April 2022 and is for an initial period of three years. Priyo Susanto has been Superior for just over nine years. The decision was made by the Provincial in Council following a consultation with the community in Japan. Bernard celebrated 30 years as a priest early this year. He is originally from Indonesia but a few months after he was ordained, he began his ministry in Japan, where he has been ever since. Currently he is Parish Priest of Johokubashi Catholic Church.
