(ANS - Rome) - If 2018 was recently defined by the media as "the year of young people", it is certainly also due to the XV Ordinary Assembly of the Synod of Bishops, to be held in Rome, 3-28 October, 2018,  dedicated, by the will of Pope Francis, to "Youth, faith and vocational discernment." The Salesian Youth Movement (SYM) walks with and alongside the Church towards this important universal appointment.

(ANS - Rome) - As per tradition, every 31 January, the Rector Major, Fr Ángel Fernández Artime, sends a message on the occasion of the feast of St. John Bosco to all the young people of the world, be they believers or non-believers, or of other religions. This year, from Dili, East Timor, he spoke loud and strong: my dear young people "the world with you has a beautiful gift and will have a future full of hope."

(ANS – Dili) – The tenth successor of St John Bosco and Rector Major of the Salesians, Fr Angel Fernandez Artime SDB arrived at Dili, East Timor, on the morning of 30 January. This is the third Salesian Rector Major visiting East Timor after the first and second visit of Fr. Egido Viganò 30 years ago in 1988, and Fr. Pascual Chavez 14 years ago in 2004; hence, 91 years after the first Salesian community arrived in Timor Leste in 1927.The Rector Major was accompanied by his secretary Fr. Horacio Lopez and Salesians from Jakarta Fr. Lino Quintão Belo and Fr. Onny, together with Salesian Bishop Virgilio do Carmo da Silva, Bishop of Diocese of Dili.

    THE MESSAGE OF THE RECTOR MAJOR, Card. Ángel Fernández Artime, SDB
