Sumanahalli, Bengaluru: As part of their formative journey, the Claretian Seminary Students visited the Sumanahalli Leprosy Care and Rehabilitation Centre on 22 January 2026.

The visit was a deeply enriching and formative experience, offering the students an opportunity to be in solidarity with those who suffer. They spent the whole day at the centre, accompanying the inmates with compassion and fraternal concern, listening to their life stories, sharing meals, and assisting them in their daily activities. The visit helped them to understand the dignity of every human person and the healing mission of the Church, especially among the poor and the afflicted.
