Voices of Our World
As part of the training to become a priest or a Brother we have an Overseas Training Program where we send our candidates overseas for two years first to learn the language and afterward to live and participate in pastoral activities with our missioners to gain firsthand experience of missionary life. We have five candidates in Cochabamba, Bolivia right now. The photo here has three of them posing with local people at a festival.
The Church experienced a momentous Easter season with the passing of Pope Francis and election of Pope Leo XIV as our new Holy Father — a pope from the United States! In our Summer 2025 Vocation Newsletter, Father Rodrigo reflects upon the gift that Pope Francis meant to us as Maryknoll missioners and the example he set for those discerning a call to missionary priesthood or brotherhood.
