(ANS - Madrid) - Fr Stefano Martoglio, Councilor for the Mediterranean region - one of the seven regions into which the Salesian Congregation is divided - is carrying out the Extraordinary Visitation of the “St James Major” Province of Spain-Madrid (SSM). His attitude in every gathering in the communities he meets in his visits is that of listening. Then he analyzes and offers his perceptions. What happens afterwards "is part of the animation and the ordinary government of every house and of the Provinces themselves," he underlines.
