Argentina - Meeting of Rectors of Salesian works in northern Argentina
Santa Fe, Argentina - November 2022 - A meeting of the Rectors (consecrated and lay) of the Salesian works of the Salesian Province of Argentina North (ARN) was held from November 15 to 17 to share experiences, reflect and work towards 2023. The central themes of Salesian animation and mission were explored under the guidance of Fr. Carlos Romero, Vicar of the provincial house. The meeting was an opportunity to continue the dialogue on some of the topics addressed during the last Provincial Chapter, such as co-responsibility in the mission of consecrated and lay Salesians. A special moment of reflection was promoted around works effective with young people in socially vulnerable contexts. The aim is to promote the work done by these works and to raise awareness of their pastoral importance. In this sense, Sofía Monserrat, coordinator of the Office of Planning and Development of the ARN Province, shared the resonances of the World Meeting of Social Works, in which she participated on behalf of the Province. Finally, the work was geared toward planning for 2023 taking into account the guidelines of the Provincial Chapter and the proposed goals for the Work of Don Bosco in Argentina North.
