Colombia – "Interoratorios 2024": young people from Salesian works as drivers for the Salesian mission and a reflection of a still current dream

26 November 2024

Bogotá, Colombia – November 2024 - On 16 November, the “Interoratorios 2024” meeting took place at the Salesian Work of the Child Jesus in Bogotá, an iconic event for the oratories and youth centres in the St Peter Claver Province of Bogotá, Colombia (COB). After several years, this initiative once again brought together boys, girls and young people in a day full of joy, fun and reflection, which strengthened unity, creativity and spirituality among the youngest. The day was punctuated by artistic presentations and activities that highlighted young talents, such as the dance groups from the Centro Juan Bosco Obrero and the Casa Juvenil oratory, as well as the symphonic bands from the Valdocco oratory and the Salesian Work of the Child Jesus. The EcoReto initiative was also awarded, which promotes recycling as an act of care for our Common Home. The winners were the Maldonado di Tunja Salesian school, the Don Bosco Youth House Oratory and Provincial Services, together with the León XIII school. The afternoon culminated with a Salesian gymkhana, full of games, laughter and fun. The "Interoratorios 2024" event showed once again that young people from Salesian works are the driving force for the Salesian mission and the reflection of a still current dream.
