SALESIAN PASTORAL ACCOMPANIMENT
4th Regional Workshop

FORMATION IN SALESIAN PASTORAL ACCOMPANIMENT
From February 3rd to 9th, 2025, SAFCAM organised its fourth workshop on “Salesian Pastoral Accompaniment” with ten participants and three facilitators. The participants came from different Salesian Provinces: AOS, MOZ, ANG, MDG, ZMB, ATE and AFE. One Sister (FMA) from AFE was also among the participants.
SAFCAM Team and the participants are very grateful for the excellent guidance given by the facilitators: Fr. Alex Mulongo, Fr. Philip Lazatin and Fr. Richard Ebejer. The workshop was really appreciated by all: there was a very useful input in the first sessions and then more time was given for practical exercises. The sharing of pastoral experiences in two small groups was very enriching.
Participants were aware that they learn from their apostolic experiences as well from the challenges they face. In this way, they are formed “in” the Mission, and not just “for” the Mission.
Similar workshops have been organised from November 2022 and they are very useful for confreres and other members of the Salesian Family in the Region of Africa-Madagascar.
