SPECIAL REPORTS
(ANS - Fortaleza) - Salesian radio stations are by their nature broadcasters that "with a Salesian style, evangelize youth and popular culture, educating, orienting, informing and involving" (Cf. Salesian Social Communication System 2011). This is also the case of Radio "FM Dom Bosco" of Fortaleza, which during its years of existence has progressively grown in this mission and which in recent weeks has seen its capacity for inclusion and involvement further strengthened, thanks to the inauguration of a new radio transmission tower.
(ANS - Porto Alegre) - Don Bosco chose St. Francis de Sales as the patron of his Society not only because he was the saint of goodness, gentleness or patience. He also chose him because he was a born writer. St. Francis de Sales wanted to spread the Kingdom of God through the apostolate of the "good press", as part of a grand opportunity to do good.
(ANS - Madrid) - Volunteering is a generous way to share your time with the people who need it most. One of the objectives of volunteering is the promotion, formation and monitoring of all those who choose this style of service. Most of them participate in projects of education, training and socio-cultural animation of vulnerable children and young people and their families.
(ANS - Manaus) - "The Amazon continues to be one of the priorities of the Salesian Congregation. We are determined to continue our pastoral and missionary action, mobilizing all the educational and pastoral resources typical of our charism," said Fr Ángel Fernández Artime, Rector Major. "The Salesians, with our long missionary experiences, working with indigenous peoples, feel responsible to contributing to the Synod with our own experiences too, with the difficulties we have as Salesians in the field of inculturation of the Salesian charism and with what the Church, through this Synod, has made to create a Church with an indigenous face."
