School of Mission 2011 Begins 13 February, Sunday!

Join us in prayer as we prepare to welcome our 15 participants to the School of Mission here at St Gerard's Monastery in Wellington. This year's participants come from Germany, Czech Republic, USA, Korea, Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia.

The School begins on Sunday, 13 February with the Opening Mass celebrated by our Archbishop John Dew.

Part of the 'rituals' of preparation for the School is the cleaning and setting up of rooms.

Though these rituals are the same, we welcome new faces in our community. It is a huge blessing to have Valerie, Albert, Christine, Susan and Helena in our midst and we look forward to Susilo joining us very soon as well.
These folks were participants in last year's School and this year they will experience the School in a very different capacity, one in which we hope they experience deeper growth in faith, confidence and ministry. \o/
