Welcome Fr. Jijo!

The latest news at the beginning of the Advent Season is indeed a joyful one for the Claretian Mission in China: Fr. Superior General has assigned Fr. Jijo Kandankulathy for the China Mission. He is assigned to the Macau - Hong Kong  Community. He has joined the Claretian Community in Taiwan in the first week of December. Fr. Jijo will do his two years of language course in Taiwan before he moves to Macau.
