Yesterday
after the visit to the construction site of the Novitiate, I visited the
Postulants and spent about two hours talking and sharing with them. They had a
lot questions regarding the Order and its mission. They are Very good young
postulants future capuchins for the Order and Province.
This
morning I visited the Theology students who are about 9 of them. Even with them
spent two hours. It was a fraternal dialogue with them. They too are young and
energetic young capuchins. I admonished them to be different from the Diocesean
clergy with whom they are studying. I also advised them to keep up with
Franciscan and Capuchin spirituality. Encouraged them to read a lot of
Franciscan Capuchin Material. It was a very fraternal encounter.
In
the afternoon we flew to Lucknow and reached to the provincial curia around
7.30pm. Tomorrow I Have one day free and I will visit one Hospital for some
regular check ups.
India
is gearing up to celebrate the festival of Lights (Diwali) which starts from
tomorrow. All houses, buildings and streets are decorated and lit.
The
climate is slowly dropping down. By first week of November it will be cold this
part of India.
