From Hoang MSC in Vietnam

I would like to update 2 news of MSC Vietnam community:

On May 30th, 2024, there are two MSC students who graduated from Jesuit Institute in Vietnam.

VU Quoc Vuong graduated from the Philosophy program of 3 years 2021-2024. LE Van Thanh graduated from the Theology program of 4 years 2020-2024. They got a very good outcome from their study. Vuong will continue his Theology for 4 years. And Thanh will go for a one-year pastoral program.

Congratulations and we pray for them when they continue their journey.

From Jun 3-5, 2024, we gathered all together for the whole community annual study.

 There are two topics in this gathering.

• The first topic is about the zeal for evangelization. We invited one SJ brother who spent more than 30 years working in evangelization for the minority peoples in Vietnam, to spend 1st day sharing his experience in this matter. He is a true missionary who has a heart for mission, esp. for the poor. This is really helpful for all of us MSC members in Vietnam to keep fire in our hearts for mission: bringing God's Heart to everyone everywhere.

The second topic is about Safeguarding. Quy BUI, who has just come back from his study of Safeguarding in Rome, spent 2 days sharing his study about Safeguarding with many matters relating to.

He especially helped us to look into Undertaking risk assessment & Preparing guest and visitor policies; and the process of preparing for the Audit. We find it very very helpful from Quy's sessions, esp. for our students when they are to go for summer pastoral. The gathering is very fruitful and successful.
