The religious formation is the bringing to birth of a new personality which was
conceived in Baptism and now shaped and fashioned to respond to the particular
mode of Christian vocation. It is to assist the young religious to grow in a
personal love for Christ and a deepening sense of Christian Community.
Here they get a chance to
continuously mould their personality to become good and devout religious, with
strong faith and high dedication to the religious life.
The Formation Program of our Congregation consists of one to
three years of aspirancy (completion of Plus 2) one year Pre-Novitiate, one
year Canonical Novitiate, one year Regency (time for community experience)
and five to six years of Temporary Vows. Under the guidance of
the formation team, the new religious grows in a deeper understanding and
appreciation of her vocation, the vows, the Christ life, and the
Franciscan spirit.
