May God bless and keep our seminarians!

In the background the 'steamer' Varagan is preparing to leave the Stronsay pier at 8.10am.

This morning the seminarian Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer,

in calm seas and good standing,

left Papa Stronsay to catch it.

They are on their way to London

to prepare their travel documents for the seminary.

Br. Magdala Maria, F.SS.R., Br. Jean Marie, F.SS.R.,

Br. Yousef Marie, F.SS.R.,

Br. Martin Mary, F.SS.R., Br. Ivan Maria, F.SS.R.

We are very happy to announce

that at the end of August they will be received by

the Society of Saint Peter's seminary, in Denton, Nebraska.

Prayer for their safe journeying
Dominus custodit.... The Lord is your keeper;
The Lord is your protection upon your right hand.
The sun shall not burn you by day,
Nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all evil;
May the Lord keep your souls.
May the Lord keep your coming in and your going out:
From henceforth now and for ever.

(Psalm 120, Monday at Vespers)
