Provincial level formation meetings.
Each Community has the apostolic works in form of their fields:
The major source of income is from Annual Retreat payment
Most expenditure items are souvenirs for the opportunity to congratulate the anniversary or the death of the members in the Salesian Family for ongoing formation of the members and prepare for the pastoral work that will take place as the needs of the youth will demand.
DB200 related activities and inspiration
It’s the time for birth of Don Bosco Banpong Community. The inspirations of all the Promised in this situation (Don Bosco 200 in Thailand) have been a living monument that expresses love in Don Bosco.
New PAL related formation
The members have been urged to assume their own commitments in society with their responsibility and make themselves present and bring the Salesian charism with them to other organizations which have service to the youth and to the family as their goals by the creating the network with all the kinds of the social communications.
