Croatia - Meeting of Rectors, Economers, Parish Priests of Croatian Salesian Province
Zagreb, Croatia - September 2022 - A meeting of the Rectors, Economers, and Parish Priests was held on Monday, September 12, at the Salesian Provincial Headquarters of Croatia (CRO). The gathering began with a greeting to the participants by Fr. Tihomir Šutalo, CRO Provincial, who presented selected parts from the Croatian translation of the Salesian Rector's Handbook (2019), published earlier this year during the months of closure due to the pandemic. The Provincial emphasized that this is not just a manual for Rectors but for all Salesians, because everyone must actively participate in the life of the local and Provincial community. During the meeting, Fr. Josip Stanić, Provincial Economer, together with an expert for the use and distribution of electricity, presented to the Salesians some important points to improve and optimize the use of energy in the lives of individual Salesians and communities in these times that call for an especially attentive attitude of everyone in the face of the economic crisis. The Delegate for Youth Ministry presented to the Salesians the work and activities of the past summer along with plans for the new school and pastoral year. The Salesians were able to get a close look at the work being done at the provincial headquarters and the adjacent Mary Help of Christians Church in preparation for repairs to the damage caused by the earthquakes of the past two years. Finally, they discussed some other current issues for the life of Salesians and youth in the province, participation in the upcoming canonization of Artemide Zatti, and the upcoming visit of the Rector Major to the CRO province.
