La Pastoral Juvenil Salesiana requiere la convergencia de las intenciones y de las convicciones por parte de todos aquellos que están implicados en el proyecto y en la realización de la Comunidad Educativo-Pastoral, espacio donde aquella se ejerce. En este capítulo expondremos su identidad comunitaria, sus dinamismos, su estilo de corresponsabilidad y las modalidades de animación de su crecimiento. De igual forma, la comunidad está llamada a invertir en la fi gura del educador salesiano.
El sentido último del plan de Dios es la vida plena y la felicidad de los seres humanos. El Evangelio de Cristo tiene gran confi anza en lo humano. Es necesaria la atención a la realidad única de cada persona y la disponibilidad a acoger su vocación y destino en Cristo, “hombre perfecto”.
Salesian Youth Ministry requires agreement of purpose and conviction on the part of all those involved in the planning and implementation of the Educative-Pastoral Community. In this chapter we shall examine the community identity, how it works, the style of shared responsibility and the way it is animated. The community is called to invest in the fi gure of the Salesian educator. In trying to discern and renew each activity and work, we look to the Salesian style, the “oratory criterion” that connects us with the practical insights of the charism (our way of living together in communion) which have become part of our shared patrimony, and are applicable to all contexts where Salesians operate. Importance is given to the way we offer signs of the Gospel in everyday life, and the way we cultivate authentic relationships and
communication.
We believe in education and we challenge ourselves to plan our procedures in its regard; youth ministry comes into being when education is translated into concrete educational processes. The effort to plan, by means of the SEPP, keeps alive our willingness to be actively present amongst the young. By following the four dimensions we are helped in developing the personality of the young Christian through a systematic variety of proposals and a broad understanding of youth ministry which is open to everyone. In the end there are certain choices which run through all of Salesian ministry.

Fullness of life and the happiness of human beings is the ultimate purpose of the plan of God. The Gospel of Christ shows great trust in humanity. It demands that we pay attention to the unique reality of every person and their willingness to accept their vocation and destiny in Christ, the perfect man. The Gospel proposes the good news (the person of Christ) who invites everyone to share in Christ’s sonship, the foundation of the freedom and dignity of every person. Don Bosco educated and evangelised by carrying out a project of holistic development. He saw education as the growth of the person, with all the means necessary to assist the person. Evangelisation inspires people to the fullness of life offered in Jesus and enlightens them in its pursuit, always respecting the developing conscience of each person. Finally, regarding the choice of fi eld of ministry, we are sent to the poor, especially the poorest, and to ordinary class environments, where we seek to humanise and evangelise the culture.

Mentre d’ordinario le mie circolari s’indirizzano a tutti indistintamente i membri della famiglia Salesiana, questa volta la mia parola è diretta particolarmente a voi, cui la fiducia dei Superiori Maggiori ha posti a capo delle nostre Case in qualità d’ispettori e Direttori. A voi è ben noto come per la missione che avete ricevuto, dovete essere le guide di altri Confratelli nel sentiero della perfezione, le sentinelle vigilanti dei giovanetti affidati alle vostre cure, i custodi dello spirito di D. Bosco, gli interpreti “autorevoli delle intenzioni dei Superiori, anzi i rappresentanti della loro stessa autorità. Foste collocati sul candelabro affinchè diffondeste tutto all’intorno viva luce di scienza e di virtù.
Crediamo nell’educazione e ci spingiamo a progettarne la prassi; la pastorale giovanile si attua quando si traduce concretamente in itinerari educativi. Lo sforzo di progettazione, con il PEPS, rende viva la volontà di essere propositivi con i giovani.

L’anno 1898, che sta per finire, sarà sempre memorando nei fasti della nostra Pia Società. Voi desidererete sapere quali cose specialmente le aggiunsero lustro, ed io a comune consolazione, e dirò anche, a comune edificazione vengo ad esporvele. Merita d’essere accennata in primo luogo la riuscitissima adunanza del nostro ottavo Capitolo Generale.
In questa lettera sostanziosa, l’autore informa i suoi Salesiani del decennio della morte di Don Bosco e li invita a seguire le sue tracce. L’autore dà poi alcuni avvisi e incoraggiamenti.
On June 30, 1879, after numerous attempts to stave off the inevitable, Don Bosco was finally compelled to shut down his oratory school in Valdocco.
St. John Bosco (1815-1888) was a product of Piedmont in northern Italy. His seventy-two years spanned a time of industrialization in Turin and other major cities and the complexities of Italian unification. Despite an often harsh anti-clerical atmosphere and the volatile political situation , a number of saints rose to prominence in nineteenth century Piedmont.
In the fall of 1870, for reasons that have never been documented, Don Bosco did not answer Archbishop Joseph Alemany’s invitation to travel the El Camino Real in the land of El Dorado.
Part I will present a biographical sketch of the man; Part II will deal with the sources and the editorial history of the Biographical Memoirs; and Part III will inquire into the historical criteria and into the method with which the author worked, for an evaluation (by way of conclusion) of the historical character of the Biographical Memoirs.
