SPECIAL REPORTS
(ANS - Buenos Aires) - We are in Viedma, around 1940. For a few years now, Salesian coadjutor Artemide Zatti has been the soul of the "San José" hospital that the Salesians have been running since the end of the 19th century in this city in Argentina's Patagonia. A place where the care of life is not limited to physical health but is offered to people in an integral way ... to all people.
(ANS – Rome) - Last month saw the presentation of the new series of articles by Fr. Gildasio Mendes, General Councilor for Social Communication, aimed at exploring the theme, "Educating and Evangelizing Today in the Digital Habitat. Together with young people, toward the future." Today, giving continuity to this series of reflections, the second contribution is published, through which Fr. Mendes invites us to deepen the principal question of this new series: how to educate and evangelize today in the digital environment?
(ANS – New Rochelle) - Salesian Missions, the U.S. development arm of the Salesians of Don Bosco, joins Catholic organizations around the globe in honoring World Day of Migrants and Refugees. The day, celebrated on Sept. 25, will be the 108th celebration of the day, which was started in 1914 as a way to highlight and express concerns for vulnerable populations of people who have left their homes in search of safety and more opportunity.
(ANS - Buenos Aires) - Twelve thousand kilometers separate the town of Boretto, in the Province of Reggio-Emilia, Italy, from the city of Bahia Blanca, in the southern part of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Like millions of families at the time, the "Zatti" emigrated to America in search of better living conditions. A new landscape, a new culture, and a new language welcomed a young Artemide, a saint who lived some of the dreams and hardships, the longings and joys, experienced by every migrant who leaves their homeland.
