Several religious brothers in the archdiocese are celebrating significant anniversaries this year. In the Special Vocation Issue of The Pilot of May 21, 2010 we highlighted some of those jubilarians.

The longest serving brother in the Society of Jesus is Jesuit Brother Italo Parnoff, SJ who celebrates 75 years of religious profession; two are celebrating 60 years of religious profession Brother Albert Aldrich, OFM of St. Anthony Shrine, Boston and Brother Augustin E. Cote, OMI of Lowell; while Marist Brother Rene D. Roy, FMS of Lawrence will be celebrating 50 years as will Brother Eugene F. DeLauro, FMSI, of Framingham. Congratulations to all these jubilarians and thanks to them for their service, not only of the archdiocese but in mission lands and other local Churches.
