all from India, made their Final Vows on July 24, 2010 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.  The ceremony took place at St. Joseph's chapel where parishioners and SCJs gathered together to celebrate this event. Fr. Attilio Zorzetti, SCJ, Provincial of the Argentine Province, received the vows in the name of the Congregation.

For several months, the four SCJ regents have been in Argentina (Jojappa Ch. and Martin) and Brazil (Jojappa K and Christy Peter) learning the language, as they prepare themselves to be involved in SCJ ministry.  Their regency program has been directed by Fr. Eduardo Aguero, SCJ (Argentina) and Fr. Sebastian Pitz, SCJ (Brazil)
