Formation
We have three formation houses in Kenya. The Orientation Year that is the first Stage of our religious formation begins at Iruma-Meru Diocese. Here the students are introduced to the Consecrated life and the life of the Congregation among other religious elements. Currently, we have 5 brothers. Fr Lewis CSsR is the OY Director.
The Second Stage is Philosophical Studies which takes three years in our Karen Formation House-Nairobi. Our brothers study at Consolata Institute of Philosophy. We have 16 students at this stage. Fr Raphael CSsR is the Perfect of Students assisted by Fr. Augustine CSsR.
The third stage is the Novitiate where one is initiated into a particular Redemptorist way of life through intense prayer and interiority. The Novitiate is at Ndemi Road Nairobi. We have nine novices- six from Kenya and three from the Mission of Ghana. Fr Paul CSsR is the Novice Master assisted by Fr Isaac CSsR.
The fourth stage is the Theological Studies which takes four years at Utume-Salesian Theologicum. We have three students two from Kenya and one from the Vice-Province of Mataldi-Congo.
