The latest edition of the our Provincial’s Newsletter – March 2023 – is here. “May this Lent and Easter inspire you to live a virtuous life, to desire a great holiness and perfection in your priestly ministry. Virtuous priests are needed to spread the Easter message of Christ who Resurrected to proclaim the Victory over sin and death. May the Resurrected Lord be your strength to be virtuous” – Father Marek Sobczak, Provincial, writes in the editorial.
