Very soon, the three Priests go to different Parishes and other places where young people are met, to present the Piarist vocation. Some young men come home, saying they want to become Piarists. They are still too young, and Fr. Jesus that attend them, understands that one has to be prudent with many vocations that will come in the future, doing a good discernment in understanding the calling of the Lord or other motivations that could push them to look for the Piarist Vocation.

   

On August 19, in order to prepare the feast of our Founder, they go to make a retreat to the Retreat House Betania. Together with the fathers are four vocational young boys: Jose, Robert, Lily and Jovel. From them the first three ones will reach the novitiate years later. Really, the vocational efforts start giving fruit rather soon.
