TWO OBLATE SEMINARIANS IN TIJUANA, BAJA CALIFORNIA

  
     
 

Oblate pre-novices Feliciano Lopez and Victor Hugo Valenzuela are beginning their second year of studies and discernment with the Oblates of Mary Immaculate at Casa Estudiantil de Mazenod, in Tijuana, BC, Mexico.

 

On September 10, 2003, Oblates, friends and family from throughout Southern and Baja California showed up to give their support and encouragement as the seminarians renewed their commitment for another year of studies and prayerful discernment.  The celebration took place in the local parish church, followed by a reception at the community house.

 

The formation team at Tijuana is made up of Fr. Tom Rush (Director) and Fr. Gerry McGovern (Assistant Director).
