Kraków, Poland - May 2022 - From May 27 to 29, the Pilgrimage of the Liturgical Service of the Altar (LSO, in Polish) of the Kraków Province (PLS) was held at the Salesian Theologate in Kraków, that is, a meeting of the ministries and lectors of the different Salesian presences in the Province: Rzeszów, Staniątki, Oświęcim, Kraków-Dębniki, Skawa, and Kraków-Pychowice. The youngsters arrived with their chaperones on the afternoon of Friday 27, and a service was held in the evening, with Eucharistic adoration and the opportunity for confession. This was accompanied by the songs of the youth group, under the leadership of Fr. Pawel Centnar. Instead, on Saturday, after the opening Mass, the sports competitions began. After the competitive challenges and lots of excitement, there was a moment of rest, with a shared dinner together. Afterward, there was also room for a surprise: an interactive lesson on nitrogen and its properties. On the last day of the meeting, a number of formation lectures were held, divided into two age groups. At 11 a.m. the solemn Eucharist began, presided over by the Rector of Theologate, Fr. Adam Paszek. After the Mass, everyone gathered in the hall to collect medals, cups, and various awards. The first prize, made by the Provincial Economer, Fr. Gabriel Stawowy, was won, after an intense challenge, by the team from Staniątki, followed by the teams from Oświęcim and Krakow-Pychowice.
