The call of Jesus, to be fishers of men (Mathew 4:19) in the Don Bosco way, were heeded by four from Karnataka and eight from Kerala for the Province of Bangalore this year. The Sacred Heart Province of Bangalore (INK) is blessed with 12 new priests in the latter half of 2020 and at the beginning of 2021. Though the current pandemic protocol laid down restrictions, the ordination to the priesthood of these deacons was solemnized in the best way possible, attended by Salesians, relatives and well-wishers.

The newly ordained are John Devajaj, Gnanaprakash Dilip, Lourdu Francis Xavier, John Sanjay, Jim Jose, Elambasseril Vipin, Muttathuparambil John, Thandel Joseph, Keezhathan Sebastian, Chemplanikal Arun, Kaitharakuzhy Jaison and Kainikunnel Rony. ``The priesthood is the love of the Heart of Jesus,`` said St. John Vianney. We pray that these ordained young men may truly experience Jesus, to transmit the same to people.
