This year sees great promise for our MSC Missions in Mozambique, where five young men are beginning their formation journey on the path to becoming Missionaries of the Sacred Heart.
In January, Fr José Eduardo Paixão and Fr Roney Lima visited the young men beginning their missionary journey, at their family homes.

A post on the MSC Mozambique Facebook page reads:
“In this formative year, the House will welcome five young people: Cristiano and Naldo, from the district of Gilé, in the Province of Zambezia; Estevão, from the district of Alto Molocué, also from Zambézia; Hélder, from the district of Meconta, in Nampula Province; Áfido, born in Chiúre, residing in the city of Pemba, in Cabo Delgado. They are simple names, linked to concrete places, but loaded with a larger story that begins to take shape in the time of discernment.”

This year, the Fr Júlio Chevalier Formation House will be home to 13 students in total, all “united by the same desire to listen, learn and let oneself be led” in the love of the Sacred Heart.
“A vocation is not imposed, it is proposed. God passes through people’s lives with the delicacy of those who call by name and wait,” says the MSC Mozambique Facebook page. “It is important to emphasize that every vocation is an Easter journey. There are questions that remain open, there are silences that educate the heart, there are falls that purify listening. The essential thing is to remain available, with your heart attentive to the One who calls and does not withdraw your trust. May this formative stage be, for each person in formation, a time of inner rootedness, where life allows itself to be shaped with humility, freedom and fidelity to the call that comes from God and always leads further, deeper and truer.”

It is with hopeful hearts that we send every good wish and blessing to Fr Eduardo, Fr Romey, and all of the 2026 MSC students at the Fr Júlio Chevalier Formation House. Our prayers are with you all on this great journey of faith.
