It was a long cherished aspiration of the members of south Kerala Province to commence a Philosophy college as their own. As the opportunities were in favour of the decision taken by the superiors the mission effected in hundred fold. The strenuous labour rendered and initiated by the delegate Very. Fr. Andrew Fernadez in 1995 realized by the commissary General Very. Rev. Fr. Wilfred Miranda in 1996. Thus the present St. Joseph’s Ashram and Philosophy College is a fourteen months plan of the members of the South Kerala Province, which has twenty years of cherished memories.
