(ANS – Seville) – The Youth Ministry Team from the Salesian Province of Mary Help of Christians, Spain (SMX) held its final extended in-person meeting of the 2025/26 academic year on 12 and 13 March in Seville. The meeting brought together representatives from teams working in schools, oratories and youth centres, parishes and social education platforms, alongside representatives from Vocational Promotion, Missionary Activity, the Faith Formation Programme, the Bosco Global NGO, and the Communication and Finance Delegations. The first working session for the nearly fifty participants focused on setting the roadmap for the next Provincial Chapter, scheduled for the 2026/27 academic year. After presenting the theme and outlining the key areas to be addressed, the participants engaged in group work to analyse the points for reflection that emerged from this strategic forum for the life of the province. Criteria and recommendations on the use of AI in the SMX Province were shared. On the second day, participants reflected on fundraising. The meeting concluded with a sharing of the work carried out on the digital evangelisation initiative and on cross-cutting initiatives such as the Provincial Campobosco, the forum for reflection with young people, the presence in advocacy networks, and the study of the Preventive System.
