MONTLY MESSAGE N
MONTLY MESSAGE n. 5 — 2017 Turin - Valdocco 24 May MARY URGES US TO BEAR WITNESS TO HER PRESENCE Our devotion to Mary Help of Christians, which we emphasize particularly in this month with the novena and the feast in her honour, commits us to witness her maternal presence to all those who are far from God or who are experiencing difficult trials such as war, illness or injustice. Through prayer and example, we are called to approach the hearts of those who are far from God and his grace. Mary Help of Christians is with us and intercedes for each of us, so that with love and courage we can witness the faith, and encourage people to look to her and consecrate themselves to her Immaculate Heart. She sends us in order that, like small lights in the world guided by her maternal love, we may shine clearly with full splendour. Prayer will help us, because prayer saves us and saves the world. She exhorts us not to be afraid to tell the truth, and not to be afraid to change ourselves and the world by spreading love, making her Son known and loved, so that love may reign in our lives: a love that is living, a love that attracts and a love that gives life. It is up to us to acknowledge it, live it and spread it. The aspect that characterizes our association is the popular dimension of the Salesian charism, which finds a typical expression in popular piety. The term "popular piety" designates those diverse cultic expressions of a private or community nature which, in the context of the Christian faith, are inspired predominantly not by the Sacred Liturgy but by forms deriving from a particular nation or people or from their culture. -

Social Sciences and Missions 32 (2019) 311–341 Social Sciences and Missions Sciences sociales et missions brill.com/ssm Catholic Missionaries of the ‘Holy Land’ and the Nahda The Case of the Salesian Society (1904–1920) Paolo Pieraccini Università di Firenze [email protected] Abstract At the beginning of the twentieth century, some Palestinian and Lebanese Salesians, influenced by the Arab Renaissance movement, began to claim the right to oppose the ‘directorships’ of the institutes of the Don Bosco Society in Bethlehem and the sur- rounding area. They also began to request better recognition of their native language, in schools and within the religious community. They clashed with their superiors who, in the meantime, had signed an agreement with the Salesian government in Rome, committing them to developing the Italian language in their teaching institutes. The struggle became particularly fierce after the Holy See rebuked the Palestinian religious congregations for teaching the catechism and explaining the Sunday Gospel to people in a foreign language and urged them to do so in Arabic. The clash caused a serious dis- turbance within the Salesian community. Finally, after the First World War, the most turbulent Arab religious were removed from the Society of Don Bosco. All converged in the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, where they continued forcefully (but in vain) to put forward their national demands. This article is based on several unpublished sources. Résumé Au début du XXe siècle, des salésiens palestiniens et libanais, influencés par le mouve- ment de la Renaissance arabe, revendiquent le droit de s’opposer à leur direction, celle des instituts de la Société de Don Bosco à Bethléem et dans les environs. -
Dai Consiglieri Professionali Generali Alla Federazione Nazionale CNOS-FAP
Dai Consiglieri Professionali Generali alla Federazione Nazionale CNOS-FAP Felice Rizzini Il processo innovativo della Formazione Professionale s'intensificò dopo la morte dì Don Bosco per il contributo determinante dei Consiglieri Professionali Generali, per gli interventi dei Capitoli Generali e per la dedizione alla causa da par te dei Salesiani Coadiutori, in parallelo agli interventi legislativi e normativi dello Stato ed allo spazio maggiore dato ad essa dalle iniziative pubbliche e private. Dopo Don Giuseppe Lazzero, che per primo esercitò il compito di Consigliere Generale Professionale della Congregazione dal 1886 al 1898, distinguendosi nella cura particolare alla formazione dei Coadiutori Salesiani, si succedettero: Don Giu seppe Bertello (1898-1910); Don Giuseppe Vespignani (una prima volta dal 1910 al 1911 ed una seconda volta dal 1922 al 32); Don Pietro Ricaldone (1911-1922); Don Antonio Candela (1932-1958); Don Ernesto Giovannini (1959-1965). Con il Capi tolo Generale XIX venne abolita la figura del Consigliere Professionale Generale. Fra di essi si distinsero per l'impulso dato alle Scuole Salesiane Professionali e Agra rie Don Giuseppe Bertello, Don Pietro Ricaldone, Don Antonio Candela e Don Ernesto Giovannini. 1 — Don Giuseppe Bertello Don Bertello arrivò a tale incarico con una profonda preparazione umanistica (laureato in teologia, in lettere e filosofia, membro dell'Arcadia e dell'Accademia Romana di S. Tommaso) e con una ricca esperienza di governo come direttore ed 127 ispettore, ma senza una preparazione specifica. Cercò di superare questo limite con lo studio personale e con il contatto diretto con l'esperienze salesiane e con quelle più importanti maturate in quel tempo in Italia e all'estero. -

Un biografo del secondo successore di Don Bosco potrebbe far sue le parole del Manzoni sul Cardinal Federigo Borromeo (1): «La sua vita è come un ruscello, che, scaturito limpido dalla roccia, senza ristagnare né intorbidarsi mai, in un lungo corso per diversi terreni, va limpido a gettarsi nel fiume ». Dalla fanciullezza alla vecchiaia la non breve vita dì Don Albera passò gradatamente per diversi uffici, trovandolo sempre uguale a se stesso in una compostezza serena e operosa, quasi senza mutazioni di rilievo. Questa sua calma, appresa da Don Bosco, fu messa a dura prova negli anni della prima guerra mondiale, quando tutto d'un tratto vide tanti confratelli dì varie nazioni, strappati alle loro pacifiche opere di bene per essere lanciati sui campi di battaglia. -

No. 02/2007 JULY 07 CONTENTS General Manager's Report New Directors Excellence in a Scientific Project Award Chapter Events New Corporate Sponsors Chapter Web Sites Dear AFCEANs, Immediately after our annual SHAPE event and the associated Professional Development Europe (PDE) course I attended the AFCEA business meetings in Virginia Beach. As most of you will be aware, TechNet International, previously held each year at the Washington Convention Centre was to be replaced by ‘Solutions’, to be held in Crystal City. With inadequate takeup it was decided to postpone ‘Solutions’ and focus the business meetings in Virginia Beach as part of TechNet Transformation. It is now assessed as ‘highly unlikely’ to run such an event in DC and the future of TechNet Transformation has been strengthened by a formal link with the US Naval Institute, in the same manner as the annual ‘West’ event in San Diego. The most significant piece of news, which I promulgated separately on the day it was announced, was the appointment of Mr Kent Schneider, currently Vice President Business Development, Northrop Grumman Corporation (IT Sector), as the new President and CEO of AFCEA with effect from 1 August. Mr Schneider has been a major force within AFCEA as the Chairman of the Strategic Development Committee and a member of the Budget and Finance Committee. He has given generously of time and financial donations over the years so his appointment will be welcomed by all as someone who knows AFCEA well and has its best interests at heart. The RVP meeting, though diminished in numbers, was as lively as ever. -
Reflections on Virtue Saint John Rosco's Heroic Faith As Reported by Eyewitnesses in His Beatification Process
Reflections on Virtue Saint John Rosco's Heroic Faith as Reported by Eyewitnesses in his Beatification Process Joseph Boenzi Introduction y January 1896, the Church in Turin was winding down its preliminary investigation into the life and virtue of the late priest and educator John B Bosco. Since 1890, a team appointed by Cardinal Gaetano Alimonda (1818-1891), and reconfirmed by Archbishop Davide Riccardi (1833-1897), hal gathered the testimony of 29 eyewitnesses who made sworn deposition regarding all they knew about John Bosco's life, work, and virtues. At least another 15 witnesses were due to appear before the arrival of summer. If those conducting this "informative process" felt the evidence warranted it, the archdiocese of Turin would formally propose the late John Bosco to Rome as a candidate for beatification and canonization. The procedure, which followed the prescribed format, resembled something of an inquest, even a "trial." However, this "trial" did not so much center on what Don John Bosco had done or not done during his lifetime - Don Bosco was easily one of Turin's best known churchmen. Instead it launched a thorough examination of his character and virtues. This is because beatification is not based on personal success but on an heroic and exemplary practice of Christian virtues. Witnesses were to testify to the "servant of God's" practice of the theological, cardinal and moral virtues: faith, hope, charity with God, charity toward neighbor, prudence, justice, fortitude, obedience, humility, piety and reputation for holiness. If after a thorough scientific and legal examination, it 82 Journal of Saleslan Studies could be proved that the person in question lived a life of Christian virtue "to an heroic degree," he or she could be declared "venerable," that is, worthy of imitation.
