Pictures for All Souls Sunday/Li-Peng

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ:

This coming Sunday, we'll celebrate the Mass of "All Souls" for those who passed away. The Liturgical team would like to remind you to bring pictures of your late relatives or friends for memoir. Their pictures will be placed in front of the altar and we'll pray for the peace of their souls during the Mass.

In Christ,

饒志成神父1943年出生於印尼,高中畢業後回到台灣,於台灣大學念機械系。中學時,受當時在印尼的鄭爵銘神父感召,加入督進團 (基督服務團前身)。

於1963年入彰化靜山耶穌會初學院。兩年後赴義大利唸文學、哲學及神學,獲哲學及神學雙碩士學位,並於羅馬宗座額我略大學唸靈修心理學。

學成後回台,於1976年晉鐸,開始福傳工作。神父喜歡與年輕人來往,在修會內接受長上所指派的一些行政工作外,也負責培育青年工作,先在台南百達學生中心當了五年的主任,後來又被任命接掌聖多瑪斯總修院院長七年,負責培育年輕修士工作。同時神父尤其喜歡靈修輔導工作,除了輔導台灣區的基督服務團外,還輔導基督生活團,帶領避靜及日常生活神操等等。每年會帶領一次修女的八日常年避靜。近年來神父參與耶穌會中華省中國大陸使徒工作,每年會去中國好幾次,為國內神職講避靜以及修院青年靈修培育工作。
