COMMISSION #5 - 2nd reading
Commission #5. The commission had to re-write the entire document. One of
the basic statements faced by the commission was the theme of the
Salesian community as the "animating
nucleus." They chose to interpret Regulation 5 in this way:
"The Salesian community is within the animating
nucleus of the EPC." It is not the animating nucleus, but forms a
part of the nucleus. The structure of the document is as follows:
1. The Call of God
2. The practical situation today
3. Challenges and Working Orientations
a. The mentality of working with a project
b. Qualitative and Quantitative consistency
c. Relationship between the Community and the
Work
d. The Provincial Pastoral and Strategic Plan
This too is yet to be further discussed and voted on - after Easter.
COMMISSION #3
Commission
#3 presented its report on "Our Animating Presence Among
the Young." No further comment at this stage. After Easter!
