Perpetual religious profession of Br. Joji Jerone FAM and Vows Renewal of Bros. Michael Viyagappan FAM, Pramod Roy FAM, and Joy Antony FAM

On 18^th December 2015, Br. Joji Jerone FAM made his Religious first profession before the then superior Fr. Miguel FAM; it was a great day of joy for his family as well as for the family of Merciful Love. It was just the temporary profession, but it gives more joy for the family of Merciful Love when one of its brothers commits himself completely to the Merciful Love. On 18^th December 2021, Br. Joji Jerone FAM, son of Mr. Jerone and Mrs. Selvi Jerone, made his final decision to follow the Merciful Lord until his last breath. ‘My Jesus, make all my actions similar to yours and strengthen me in your love and peace.’ Bl. Esperanza of Jesus

The ceremony of the perpetual profession began at 5: 30pm on 18^th December 2021 at Sons of Merciful Love Seminary in Perayam. Fr. Libin Das FAM, the delegate of the Superior General of Sons of Merciful Love, presided the Holy Mass. Fr. Byju Alphonse FAM, Fr. Vincent Antony Pragasam FAM, Fr. Ashlin Andrew FAM, Fr. Binny, Fr. Aji OCD, Fr. Joseph OFM Cap., Fr. Shaji Wilfred OFM Cap., Fr. Shajan, Dn. Jesmon FAM and Dn. Antony FAM were present for the Holy Mass. Fr. Binny, priest from Quilon Diocese, delivered the homily about the four important jewels that our Mother Esperanza teaches us. After the homily Br. Joji made his perpetual profession before the delegate and the community.

Vocation is a free gift of Merciful Love, on the same day our Bros. Michael Viyagappan FAM, Pramod Roy FAM, and Joy Antony FAM have renewed their vows for two more years. Each call is God’s victory; each call is God’s hope. On this great occasion the Family of Merciful Love rejoices for the perpetual profession of Br. Joji FAM and the renewal of vows of the three brothers and at the same time for the commitment of various brothers (FAM) and sisters (EAM). We continue to seek the intercession of Blessed Mother Esperanza of Jesus. May she inspire us more and more that people may see us and follow the Merciful Love.

Hearty congratulations to all our brothers and sisters. Wishing a peaceful and prosperous Christmas season.
