Italy - Camp 4 and SYM assembly at Colle Don Bosco
Castelnuovo Don Bosco, Italy - September 2021 - “Camp 4” took place at Colle Don Bosco from 23 to 26 September. It was a moment of retreat and reflection for new-graduates up to 29 years of age. More than 100 young people took part in this meeting, which handled issues relating to the educative pastoral community, according to the framework for Youth Ministry. The interventions of Fr Alberto Martelli and Fr Matteo Rupil guided and helped the young people in their reflection. Discernment was yet another issue addressed during the meeting that took place in Chieri, as it was the place of John Bosco's discernment. Three speakers shared the different aspects of discernment which is a fundamental element of each person's life. 25th September was instead dedicated to the assembly of the Salesian Youth Movement (SYM). The young people were confronted with the life experiences and stimuli of Renato Cursi, Executive Secretary of Don Bosco International, and that of Andrea Farina, the Coordinator of the Salesian Observatory for the Rights of Minors.
