There were 11 priests, 5 sisters, 2 brothers, 6 FMA novices, 6 Germans, a number of Church leaders of St. Mary Goreti Parish, Savionians and hostellers.
During the homily, Fr.

He also reminded us to don on the new person of Jesus Christ and to put away the old man with his evil habits. After the homily, the novices were vested into the religious habit.
The retreat in preparation for the vestition was preached by Fr. PX Francis who came on his bycle from Imphal travelling 157 kms. Soon after the Mass, there was a short felicitation for the newly donned novices, followed by family breakfast.
