Australia – Quinquennium Meeting: "Life as prayer"

27 September 2024

Sydney, Australia – September 2024 – Salesians from communities throughout Australia and Samoa gathered, from 23 to 25 September, for the meeting of Quinquennium  Salesians.  The theme was "Life as prayer". During the days, the Formation Commission for the Australia-Pacific Province (AUL), under the guidance of Fr Anthony Ngoc Dung Nguyen, SDB, organised a seminar, while Fr Frank Bertagnolli led sessions focusing on Don Bosco, prayer, the grace of unity, the Salesians and the Eucharist. Fr Nguyen also spoke, illustrating the significant role of Mary in the Salesian vocation and in many founding aspects of the Salesian Society. He encouraged a deep and constant devotion to Mary, urging his confreres to emulate her virtues and to cultivate a deeper relationship with her, particularly through daily practices such as the Rosary. During the meeting there were moments of conviviality, such as the visit to the city of Sydney, led by Fr Jeff Miller.
