Italy - Meeting of SYM Italy: distant and united

29 October 2020

Italy - October 2020 - On 24 October the meeting of Italy's Salesian Youth Movement (SYM) took place online, replacing the SYM National Assembly, which should have taken place in Mestre, but which due to the pandemic was rescheduled for the spring of 2021. The event took place online on the Meet platform and was attended by SYM Italy National Council members and many others scheduled to attend the Assembly in Mestre. The meeting was divided into three moments, which reflect the phases of the method of discernment: recognizing, interpreting, choosing. After a reflection on an evangelical parable, the meeting's central moment was the sharing of reflections on what we perceive today by going to the cities, and looking around, what the SYM's field of action is, and how we should work on it. It emerged that despite the difficulties, everyone is convinced that it is necessary to get involved in order to move forward. The event ended with the testimony of a former SYM animator.
