IF YOU DON'T READ ITALIAN, PLEASE READ ON BELOW THIS INITIAL NOTE.

Carissimi José e Julian,

vi faccio pervenire il messaggio redatto durante la visita d'insieme a

Bruxelles.

Io lo manderò a tutti gli ispettori e agli altri lunedì mattina. Voi potete

farlo giungere più rapidamente nella zona asiatica e forse a qualcuno dei

confratelli di Timor Est che si trovano attuamente nell'Australia o nelle

Filippine, perché siano confortati dalla solidarietà e attenzione del Rettor

Maggiore e tutti i salesiani.

Vi ringrazio anche per le notizie che mi fate pervenire.

Fraternamente.

Don Vito Orlando.

Brussels 1999-09-10

Gathered together for the Visita d'Insieme with the Rector Major and Members of

his Council, the Provincials and Provincial Councils of BEN, GBR, IRL-MALTA,

OLA, wish to express their dismay and shock at what is happening to you and

your people. We have been suffering with you each day as we read the newspapers

and heard further news from the Rector Major.

We call on our various Governments and the European Commission to do

everything they can to bring the violence and destruction you are experiencing

to a speedy end, and we wish to assure you of our continued prayer, concern and

support.
