(ANS – Caracas) – As part of efforts to strengthen the educational and evangelising mission in the country, the second cycle of Salesian Meetings took place on “Educating in the style of Don Bosco and Mother Mazzarello”. This session was specifically aimed at pastoral workers from the Salesian communities of Puerto Ayacucho and Mavaca, in the state of Amazonas. The meeting focused on deepening understanding of the Preventive System and the pedagogical and spiritual principles inherited from the founders of the Salesian Family, adapting them to the realities and challenges of the community and youth context in the Amazon region. The presentations and formation activities in this cycle were led by Sister Carihu Sandoval, FMA, and Fr Jorge Bastidas, SDB, who shared methodological and pastoral tools to enrich the support provided to children and young people in the area. With this second level, the Salesian Province of Venezuela reaffirms its commitment to continuing to offer opportunities for holistic and professional development to its collaborators, ensuring that education and evangelisation continue to go hand in hand with the charism, joy and closeness that characterise Salesian work.
