Our novices made their pre-profession retreat at Savio House in the last week of July 2005.

They are pictured here with Fr Francis Preston, who gave the retreat, and his twin brother Fr Hugh Preston, Rector at Savio House.

Jim Zettel (centre) is from the CAN (Canadian) province and will return to Canada to make his profession on August 28th. Matt Jeziorski (left) and Marco Villani (right) are from the GBR (British) province and will make their profession on 24th August.

During their novitiate the novices, with Fr John Dickson, their novice master, travelled to Italy on two occasions.

Please keep them in their prayers as they complete the home straight to their first profession as Salesians of Don Bosco.
