Commencement of the Academic Year 2024-2025

On October 12, 2024, a new academic year officially began at our International College. With an air of excitement and hope, the opening Mass was celebrated by our General Councilor Fr. Leon Budău, representing the General Minister. The Rector, Vice-Rector, Bursar and Spiritual Assistant of the Collegio concelebrated, surrounded by all the students resembling a crown of the Church at the Collegio, which, as we know has a circular shape. This year, there are 25 new students who are starting their academic journey in different institutions around Rome.

 With hopes for a beginning full of blessings and for unity strengthened by fraternity, this prayerful occasion was truly a good way to start.

Brother Leon invited the assembly to reflect on the value of our Collegio as a space of great fraternal richness, a place where personal, spiritual and cultural growth go hand in hand. With words full of enthusiasm, he encouraged all student friars to live this new year with dedication and gratitude, recalling the importance of fraternity and mutual support. 

After the Mass, there was a festive dinner, during which the Rector, Friar Andrej Kiejza, expressed his sincere thanks for the presence of Br. Leon, who instilled with his words a motivation and enthusiasm for the challenges ahead of this new academic year.
