austraLasia #2676 Don Rua celebration - and spare a prayer for Fr Ochoa please!
PHNOM PENH: 15 July 2010 -- 1,500 young people from different
provinces of Cambodia under the Don Bosco Children Fund (DBCF) Project
came to Don Bosco Technical School (DBTS) Phnom Penh Thmey to celebrate
Don Rua Day on July 10-11. These youngsters are just one-third of
the actual number of beneficiaries of the sponsorship by generous
benefactors from different countries to assist poor children and youth
in Cambodia in their health and basic education.
In celebration of the Centenary of the Death of
Blessed Michael Rua the overnight celebration aimed at making Don Rua
known through fun-filled youthful activities, songs and presentations
animated by volunteer leaders from DBTS and Volunteers of DBCF.
The celebration ended with an invitation by Fr. Roel
Soto, SDB, Vicar of DBTS, to ask the intercession of Blessed Michael
Rua for the full and quick recovery of Fr. Leo Ochoa SDB, the Salesian
in charge of the DBCF, who suffered a stroke two weeks ago while
preparing the leaders for the Don Rua Day. _________________ AustraLasia is an
