Spain. On March 18, at 6:30 in the afternoon, three young Claretians received the Order of Diaconate in Colmenar Viejo. Tow of them are from India and are assigned to Germany (Thomas Kurian and Valentin Anthony Raj) and one from Indonesia (Valens Agino) who is now finishing his licentiate in Biblical Theology in the Comillas University.
