(ANS – Rome) – This morning the work of the Summer Plenary Session of the General Council began. For the next two months the Rector Major and his Council will be dealing with issues and topics connected with the animation and government of the Congregation.
As an introduction to the Session, as is customary, they spent a day of reflection yesterday 4 June at the Saint Tarcisius postnovitiate community.
On the Agenda:
During the Summer Session due to conclude officially on 27 July, there will be some other engagements: the Team Visit to the “Mary Seat of Wisdom” Vice Province of the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome; participation in celebrations in Krakow for the first centenary of the death of Blessed Fr Bronislao Markiewicz, Founder of the Congregation of Saint Michael the Archangel and of the Sisters of Saint Michael the Archangel – both religious congregations belonging to the Salesian Family – and finally the six-monthly meeting of the Commission for the Project for Europe. In this Session the course of formation for recently appointed Provincials will not take place. It will be held instead during the next Winter Session.
