On Sunday, 22 March, the Aspirancy in Saaba (Burkina Faso) celebrated its patronal feast in honour of St Joseph. The event was attended by the Provincial Brother, numerous brothers from various communities, former aspirants, parents and a large number of the faithful—including men and women religious. The aspirants and their formators gave thanks to God, through St Joseph, for the many graces they have received. The feast was preceded by three days of prayer and a social evening during which the young men showcased their talents. After Mass, a small market was organised to celebrate in honour of St Joseph. In the evening, the former aspirants had a good opportunity to meet and exchange views with a view to exploring ways of reconnecting more closely with the House.
