Looking for an exciting opportunity over the summer? Join us for Empowering Salesian Leaders! Via a series of learning sessions, workshops, community-building moments, and experiences of prayer, each participant deepens his or her identity as a Salesian Disciple of Jesus Christ.
The experience is intended to empower the participants to generate a vast outreach, in the Spirit of Don Bosco and Mother Mazzarello, where faith encounter, faith formation, and faith transmission can be experienced by young adults who desire to be a part of the Salesian Youth Movement.
Please, if you have any questions, contact Gui Lopes at glopes@salesianym.com
