Formation

Aspirancy / Minor Seminary
Our formation house for the Aspirants and the Pre-postulants is in Prachuab Khiri khan. Prachuap Khiri Khan is located some 281 kms south of Bangkok. After the old town was abandoned during the fall of Ayutthaya, a new settlement was established in 1845 in the reign of King Rama IV. The province, today, is more famous for its natural charm of beaches and mountains than historical attractions. The province of Prachuab Kiri Khan, with its long beaches, fresh-caught seafood, and diverse adventure activities, makes for a memorable and enjoyable holiday experience for tourists. Just a few kilometers to the south of Prachuab Kiri Khan, off the main highway to the west, is Dan Singkhon which is right on the Burmese border. This is the narrowest point of Thailand between The Gulf and the Burmese border. A new road has been constructed recently, but the crossing is for Thai and Burmese only at the moment. Hopefully this may change in the future so tourists may be allowed to enter Burma from this border post.
