Aptos, United States – June 2024 – The St Francis centre in Aptos, California, hosted the Annual Leaders Conference, which took place from 7 to 13 June. Immersed in the experience of Don Bosco's oratory, the participants had a formative experience of Salesian youth spirituality and leadership development.  The young people have documented all the activities through social networks, giving a living testimony of how the Salesian oratory is a home that welcomes, a school that educates for life, a church that evangelises and a playground where friends can meet and share moments of life.
