During a Mass on January 30, 2010 in Bogotá, the Colombian Viatorian Community welcomed Juan Carlos Ubaque Camargo, Leonardo Alexis Paez, and Wilson Andrés León Ruiz as pre-novices.  They will spend the next two years studying the charism of the Viatorian Community while they continue either their education or employment.  During this time, they will also be involved in ministerial opportunities.  They will be mentored by Fr. Albeyro Vanegas.

Juan Carlos is studying philosophy and religious education at Universidad Santo Tomas while teaching religion and ethics at Colegio Integral Avancemos.  Leonardo Alexis is a student of psychology and pedagogy at Universidad Pedagógica Nacional.  Wilson Andrés has degrees in computer programming, economics, and finance.  He is currently working at Citibank Colombia.  All three serve as catechists at Parroquia San Juan Maria Vianey. 

Bienvenidos Juan Carlos, Leonardo Alexis, and Wilson Andrés!
