Brazil – July 2024 - The 2024 Youth Missionary Animation (AMJ, in Portuguese) project ended successfully on Sunday 28 July, leaving a profound mark on the communities in Southern Brazil. Starting from Curitiba, (State of Paraná), passing through Massaranduba, (Santa Catarina), until reaching Santa Rosa, (Rio Grande) and Porto Alegre (Rio Grande do Sul), this year's AMJ witnessed the transforming force of Salesian youth united by Oratory criteria. Under the inspiring motto of Strenna 2024 "The dream that makes you dream. A heart that transforms wolves into lambs", more than 350 young Salesian missionaries and coordinators have tirelessly dedicated themselves to the service of local communities. During 22 days of uninterrupted mission in the southern states of Brazil, more than 2,900 families were visited, bringing with them God's blessings, human warmth and hope that characterise the Salesian charism. This year, more than ever, AMJ has reaffirmed the Salesian commitment to cultivate "a heart that transforms wolves into lambs", inspiring young people to dream and be active agents of peace and hope in their communities.
