20 February 2024

Santiago de Cuba, Cuba – February 2024 - From 16-18 February the Salesians in Cuba celebrated a communication meeting at the María Auxiliadora community in Santiago de Cuba, where representatives of the Camagüey and Santa Clara communities, as well as various guests participated. With the fraternity that characterises the Salesian charism, the community welcomed Fr Pablo Abreu, Delegate for Social Communication in the Salesian Province of the Antilles (ANT), and engineer Philippe Madé, Delegate for Communication at Maria Auxiliadora in Santo Domingo, who presented the Rector Major's 2024 Strenna and the Provincial Communication Plan. The General Councillor for Social Communication, Fr Gildasio Mendes, sent a greeting to the participants, urging them to use creativity to continue communicating, just as Don Bosco did in his time: "It is very important to understand digital culture today. Don Bosco was creative and we have to communicate with the creativity he had." Similarly, Fr Ricardo Campoli, from the Social Communication Sector at Rome Headquarters, recalled that "to communicate is to connect with others". Together with Fr Carlos Luis Fernández, Coordinator of Communication in Cuba, participants explored a strategic and effective communication that embraces and includes all Salesian work, thus strengthening the commitment to young people.
