The historic and holy convent of Eremo di MonteVirginio, built in 1668, has been blessed to house our seven friars from five nationalities – Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Madagascar – from the OCD International College at Teresianum. As they reflect on their vocational journey in preparation for their solemn profession, they have felt God’s presence in shared wisdom, shared silence, shared prayer, and shared friendship in this holy place. Their “yes” has also been strengthened and made clearer by grace, humility, and faithfulness.
