The New York Oratory welcomes a new member in the first Year of formation

On Wednesday, May 27th, 2020 on the Feast of St Philip Neri, the NYOratory joyfully welcomed Steven Neier into the oratory for the first year of formation. It's after 6 months of a 'come and see'  experience, a period in which Steven had enough time to share the most important moments of life with other oratorian members that he decided to move on a further step. 
Steven is a Clerical candidate and has completed all his theological studies. Currently, he is working in St John University in Brooklyn and has his family in Blauvelt in Rockland. 
The ceremony to welcome him in the Oratory took place in the Oratory Chappel were all brothers were gathered and with joy,  prayed for a successful experience of their new brother. 
At the end, the whole community gathered to share agape in honor of St Philip Neri and Steven as he enters his first year of formation.
