Second Melanesian Salesians’ Encounter

Last 7-9 July 2019 the 10 Melanesian Salesians of the PGS Vice-Province gathered together in the Provincial house for their annual encounter.
During this encounter the participants recognised that they are the emerging Melanesian face of Don Bosco. To make Don Bosco’s charism take deeper root they committed themselves to know better their cultural traditions, live the Salesian constitutions and the Preventive System of education.. They also drew up the emerging profile of the Melanesian Salesian.

Editorial
Don Bosco

Don Bosco was creative, enthusiastic and enterprising in his work. He wrote and edited booklets, school texts, histories, digests, magazines, fliers, plays. From his earliest years as a priest, Don Bosco communicated through his whole demeanour and person, through games, talking, visiting, preaching, and publishing. Communicating through the internet and publishing is a priority for Salesians. Inspired by this example of Don Bosco and the early Salesians, Social Communication continues an important priority.
