(ANS – Dili) – To mark the centenary of the Salesian Congregation of Don Bosco’s presence in Timor-Leste, to be celebrated in 2027, the Salesian Family of the TLS Vice-Province has promoted various initiatives of a spiritual, human, social and cultural nature. The postnovitiate community, joining this initiative, has developed numerous activities aimed at the beneficiaries of its mission, namely children and young people.
