Admission to the Postulate of Bosna Srebrena


On the Feast of the Wounds of St. Francis of Assisi, September 17th, at the Church of St. Bonaventura in Visoko, Filip Jakov Šero from the parish of Vitez was admitted in the postulate of the Franciscan Province of Bosna Srebrena.

The ceremony of reception was presided over by the Provincial of Bosna Srebrena, OFM Jozo Marinčić, with the concelebration of the Master of the Postulates, OFM Marinko Štrbac, 1st Prefect of the Seminarians OFM Josip Ikić, 2nd prefect OFM Ivan Nujić, the Guardian OFM Franjo Radman, the Principal of the Franciscan Classical Grammar School, OFM Josip Mrnjavac, and the Principal of the Convict, OFM Zvonko Miličić.

In his sermon, OFM Jozo spoke of the holiday by saying that St. Francis spent time on Mount La Verna, praying and fasting, and experiencing God's special grace by receiving the wounds of Christ on his body. He encouraged those present to be persistent in prayer.

At the end of the mass celebration, the Guardian, OFM Francis addressed the faithful, saying that he hoped that Filip Jakov was one link and a bright spot of the monastery, where four seminarians and one postulant are this year.

After the Holy mass, gathering was organised.
