Bogotá, Colombia - July 2022 - On July 30, the inauguration of the Provincial House of the "Saint Peter Claver" Province of Bogotá (COB) took place. The day began with the Eucharist presided by Fr. Jhon Jairo Gómez, COB Provincial, and continued with the blessing of the new premises. Present at the event were Msgr. Héctor Julio López, SDB, Bishop Emeritus of Girardot, Fr. Luis Fernando Valencia, Provincial of Medellín (COM), various Salesians and members of the Salesian Family. From the origins of the Salesian presence in Colombia, the provincial headquarters has always operated at the Salesian institute "León XXXIII," until Sept. 3, 1969, when it was moved to the "Soledad" neighborhood. Now, after many years it returns to its place of origin, to coordinate the animation of the Salesian mission in Colombia.
