The Provincial Community Day program started with the Mass, celebrated by Bishop Peter Nguyen Van De, SDB. In the opening words, the Bishop expressed his joy at returning to the Salesian roof to share in the joy of the day of the family gathering. Then Fr Provincial, Barnaba Le An Phong, in the homily, emphasized the love that each member gives to the others in the life of the community. Before the end of Mass, the Provincial gave the ‘letter of obedience’ to the members. After Mass, they had football exchanges between the Formation Communities, creating a vibrant and youthful atmosphere which is a prominent feature of the Salesians. Meanwhile, other members took the time to chat happily after not seeing each other for a long time. The family meal that took place right after helped everyone have the conditions to continue to share joy with each other. Finally, during the "Congratulations" section that took place in the Hall of the Theological Academy, all the members expressed their gratitude - congratulations to the fathers, brothers who professed their vows and those ordained priests for 25 years, 50 years. At the same time, Vice-Provincial Father Joseph Nguyen Kim Khanh spoke on behalf of the members of the Province to express his gratitude to Father Provincial. Interspersed with the program were the musical performances. The Provincial Community Day ended well with a song about Don Bosco - the common father in the Salesian mission.
