During the homily the Provincial underlined the importance of this meeting and addressed his thanks to the General Economer of the Salesian Congregation, Salesian Brother Jean Paul Muller and his entire team, for coordinating this significant event.
In the three previous days in which the work took place, many topics were touched upon, including: the economic situation of each Province; the theme of poverty, property and assets within the Congregation; reflection on the drafting and review of the report; the assessment of risks and financial assets; the role of lay personnel within the Provinces; the accompaniment of local communities, reflections on the Mensuram Bonam document; actions to be taken in the future to strengthen dialogue with young people; action and planning through the role of the Planning and Development Offices (PDOs) and, finally, the Economer General's Office website.
In the last session, the Economer General’s team asked the participants to carry out a group work highlighting the salient issues of the meeting that had just taken place; the challenges for the future and the suggestions in view of organising the next meeting of the Interamerica and American South Cone Regions, to be held in 2026; and, finally, the topics that could be discussed at General Chapter 29.
