On February 16, three brothers from India, Radhelal Jatwar, Umakanta Porichha and J. Micheal Kumar, made their perpetual profession. The vows were received by Herman F. Gomes, as delegate of the provincial of the United States.
The celebration took place in the parish of the Immaculate Conception of Seramporre, West Bengal. This parish is run by the Congregation and is also currently the formation community for the temporary professed.
The next day the three brothers were ordained deacons in the same parish, by the Archbishop of Kolkata, Thomas D'Souza.
