United States - Living Valdocco Today
Stony Point, USA - March 2022 - After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the youth ministry office of the Province of the Eastern United States and Canada (SUE) organized the first retreat for Salesian youth leaders from all SUE’s nine SDB and FMA schools at the Marian shrine at Stony Point. The event involved 88 total participants, including the core team, accompanying adults, and 14 youth team members. The retreat was held March 4-10 with the goal of having student leaders experience a journey through Valdocco, where Don Bosco founded his first work among young people. The retreat took the participants through what it means to be "Valdocco today" and also gave them the skills and knowledge on how to improve the Valdocco experience in their own schools.
