(ANS – Macas) – This is a great moment for the Salesian presence in Macas, which this year celebrates its centenary of service to young people: the event is an opportunity to remember and thank the first Salesians who, with their example of faith and unconditional love, in 1924 sowed the first seeds of what is now a great "community" of missionaries in love with this land, who embraced the ancestral visions and traditions of local cultures to keep Don Bosco's dream alive in the Ecuadorian Amazon. The solemn ceremony for the celebration of the centenary took place on 15 March 2024 in the "Washington Ricaurte" theatre in Macas.

(ANS – Buenos Aires) – The Extraordinary Visitation to the Blessed Cerafino Namuncurá Province of Southern Argentina (ARS) continues. The visitation has already touched the houses in Neuquén province, those in the middle valley of the Río Negro, Bahía Blanca, and the houses in the metropolitan area and the city of Buenos Aires. Fr Gabriel Romero, Regional Councillor for America South Cone, visited La Plata, La Pampa and some houses in the city of Buenos Aires; while Fr Alfonso Bauer, appointed by the Rector Major to accompany the Regional Councillor for America South Cone in his Visitation, was in Parque Avellaneda.

(ANS – Turin) – Among the skills with which Don Bosco was able to educate was the Strenna, that message that he announced at the end of the year to all the young people of the Oratory. His successors continued this tradition. The most recent of them by Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, for the 2024 Strenna, "The dream that makes you dream. A heart that transforms ‘wolves’ into ‘lambs’", was inspired by the famous dream that young John Bosco had at the age of nine, exactly 200 years ago.
