Greetings from the novitiate. Peace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with you.
An Induction on Water Testing
Professor Ping conducted an orientation on water preservation methods as well as water testing. In his opening remarks, he highlighted that the majority of African countries mainly
here in Tanzania, they have salty water. He said due to these prevailing circumstances of climate change, most countries are faced with scarcity of water. He also emphasized that
water is life and we cannot live without it. During his visit, he went to the outskirts of Dodoma to conduct water testing. Besides, he had an opportunity to test our water too. To our surprise, he pinpointed that the water from the government supply is good for consumption and so it is free from waterborne diseases.
Psychological Tests for Candidates
Last Saturday, we received two candidates from Moshi Region. They came for their psychological assessment. In their word of gratitude, they thanked the entire community for
their hospitality and they felt that they were already members of the community.
