The new Socius for the Jesuit Conference of East Asia and Oceania arrived last November 11 in the person of Fr Benedict Jung Kang-yup (KOR), taking over Fr Pham Minh-Uoc (ASL). We thank Fr Minh-Uoc for his faithful service and wish him well as he continues his ministry at the EAPI. Fr Benedict is also the understudy of Fr Tom Steinbugler (PHI) in the area of finances. He currently resides at the EAPI.
Ms. Anne L. Noche joined the JCEAO office staff last October 12, as Administrative Assistant. She mainly works on the banking and financial transactions of the office.
