Capitolo Generale XXVIII Salesiani di Don Bosco – “What kind of Salesians for the youth of today?”. Post-chapter reflection
The document that now reaches all confreres through this publication is subtitled “Post-Chapter reflection” and not “Chapter documents”, as has customarily been the case in the past. This is because the Chapter Assembly did not arrive at the point of final approval of the text by vote. Only a few Chapter deliberations, especially those of a legal nature, saw the light of day during the first four weeks of our work. Continue reading “Capitolo Generale XXVIII Salesiani di Don Bosco – “What kind of Salesians for the youth of today?”. Post-chapter reflection”
Capitolo Generale XXVII Salesiani di don Bosco – “Witnesses to the radical approach of the Gospel” Work and temperance.
The Acts of the GC27 are divided into three fundamental parts: the text which develops the theme “Witnesses to the radical approach of the Gospel”; the deliberations; the appendices. All these parts are important and contribute to an understanding of the Chapter event and of its spirit. Added to these are my presentation and the analytical index of the development of the theme. It should not be forgotten that these Acts find in the letter of convocation written by the Rector Major emeritus Fr pascual Chavez, some ideas which can help with a better interpretation of even the Chapter itself. Continue reading “Capitolo Generale XXVII Salesiani di don Bosco – “Witnesses to the radical approach of the Gospel” Work and temperance.”

Capitolo Generale XXVI Salesiani di Don Bosco – «Da mihi animas, cetera tolle»: documents of the General Chapter XXVI of the society of Saint Francis of Sales
The publication of the Acts, with the documents that form part of them, makes the decisions taken official policy, and marks the starting point of the six-year period 2008 – 2014.
The theme of the GC26 is a single one even though it is set out in key issues. At first sight it might seem that the GC26 dealt with five different questions; in realty it is just the one theme: Don Bosco’s programme of spiritual and apostolic life. The motto “Da mihi animas, cetera tolle” can be fully understood from a knowledge of the life and work of our beloved Father and Founder Don Bosco. Continue reading “Capitolo Generale XXVI Salesiani di Don Bosco – «Da mihi animas, cetera tolle»: documents of the General Chapter XXVI of the society of Saint Francis of Sales”
