Australia - April 2023 - The Visit that the Rector Major, Fr. Ángel Fernández Artime, made to the Province of Australia-Pacific has just concluded. Lasting a total of eight days, the visit allowed the 10th Successor of Don Bosco to meet with Salesians, talk with young people, and learn about local Salesian works, as well as to share the joy of the centenary of Salesian presence in the country with Salesians and the local Salesian Family. There were many events in which the Rector Major took part: from Sydney, where the Visit began, with stops at Salesian works in Engadine and the community of Brunswick. Finally, Fr. Ángel Fernández Artime visited the Salesian Institute of Sunbury, Mother House of the Salesians in Australia, where they found, in 1927, their permanent home after moving to Melbourne from Western Australia. It was from this symbolic place that the Rector Major gave his encouragement to the young people to always follow their dreams with passion, for this is the road to happiness.
