Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic – February 2024 – After the conclusion of the Animation Visit to the Province of Brazil-Recife, the Rector Major, Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, continues his trip to America and a new Animation Visit is taking place until 12 February, this time to the St John Bosco Province of the Antilles (ANT). The Rector Major's visit has several priority objectives: first, to participate in the Youth Forum on the Environment organised by the "Sustainable Latin America" Regional Project; then, to meet, animate and support the Provincial and his Council, the Salesians and the local Salesian Family; last but not least, to celebrate the richness of Salesian life in ANT.

(ANS - Santo Domingo) - Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, the Rector Major of the Salesians of Don Bosco, held a meeting yesterday, Friday 9 February, in the parish of Saint John Bosco in Santo Domingo, with the Salesian Confreres, as part of his visit to the Province of the Antilles (ANT).

(ANS – Santo Domingo) – Coming from the Northeast of Brazil, where he had celebrated the Feast of Don Bosco and paid tribute to the Servant of God Father Cícero Romão Batista, whom he proclaimed a Salesian Cooperator, Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, Rector Major of the Salesians of Don Bosco, landed on Wednesday, 7 February 2024 in Santo Domingo, to carry out an Animation Visit to the Salesians of the St John Bosco Province of the Antilles (ANT). 

For some years the Rector Major of the Salesians, on the occasion of the feast of Don Bosco, on 31 January, has sent a "letter" to the young people of the Salesian Youth Movement around the world as a greeting, a moment of warmth, an exchange of best wishes. In general, this message comes from the theme of Strenna, or from some Congregation and Church event, such as WYD, the Holy Year, the Synod on young people, or some special Salesian anniversary.

(ANS – Juazeiro do Norte) – The final meetings of Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, Rector Major of the Salesians of Don Bosco, took place at Juazeiro do Norte in the Brazilian State of Ceará on Sunday 4 February 2024.
