Warsaw, Poland – January 2026 – Young practical trainees from the Polish provinces held their meeting at the Salesian Missionary Centre (SOM) in Warsaw from 11 to 13 January. They were accompanied by the Vice-Provincials of the four Polish provinces. The practical trainee period is a special moment in the formation of a Salesian, and therefore this meeting of evaluation and sharing was very important for these young Salesians. All the participants reflected on two of the three pillars of St John Bosco’s preventive system: religion and loving-kindess. It was truly a fraternal meeting of shared prayer, reflection and sharing, with moments of culture and recreation.
