Samoëns, France - October 2023 - The "Don Bosco Youth and Families 2023" event took place from 28 October to 1 November at the AEC holiday village in Samoëns. There were 290 participants - including children, young people and adults - in the event, now in its 12th edition, which included a varied programme centred on reflection, animation and prayer. The "Don Bosco Youth and Families" was animated by some 20 animators from the Salesian Youth Movement (SYM) and two coordinators who took care of the day's activities. Three people offered their testimony of faith and an orchestra performed, providing musical and liturgical entertainment. Many Salesians attended the event to accompany young people and adults, and three Daughters of Mary Help of Christians were also present.
