Then we met in a fraternal agape to thank the Diocese and the parish of St. Benedict for accepting our Missionaries.

Also so many of our friends, for over the past five years, have helped our young missionaries in the hard work of learning the Chinese / Cantonese and then their incorporation into the pastoral work of the diocese. A number of friends from Macau and Mainland also took part in the Foundation day celebrations. Currently Fr. Jose serves as Assistant parish priest in this parish and Fr. Ezakías begins his ministry also as Assistant parish priest in St. Teresa's Church in Hong Kong.
