austraLasia #2670 The Salesians in Blitar and the Educational Program of the
Surabaya Diocese
BLITAR: 3 July 2010 -- A three day seminar given to future
school principals for the Catholic schools of Surabaya Diocese (Third
District), which ran from 29 June till 1 July, was held in the Marian
shrine of Phosarang, Kediri - East Java. Along with other diocesan
priests and lay persons, two Salesians who have arrived in the diocese
relatively recently (an entirely new Salesian presence) Br Ephrem
Santos and Fr Lino Belo, shared insights and resources with the 71
participants destined for the different catholic schools of the
district. Among the participants were also non-Catholic teachers
because Catholics are a minority in East Java, Indonesia, which has a
predominantly Muslim population.
As the Salesians become more involved in the
educational work of the diocese, there will be opportunities to talk
about St John Bosco and the Salesian preventive system. _________________ AustraLasia is an
