Salesian Family formation for ITM Indonesia

JAKARTA: 4th June 2008 -- Fr Stjepan Bolkovak, central delegate for the Salesian Cooperators worldwide, had taken time, after the Cooperators' Congress in Macau, to visit and give talks to the houses of formation in Indonesia.
    Due to some complications with his return visa into Indonesia (he had no multiple entry visa) Fr Stjepan could not visit East Timor, so he spent his time giving talks and 'Good Nights' to the aspirants and pre-novices in Tigaraksa and the next days he spent with the young confrères (post-novitiate), sharing about the Salesian Family especially regarding the Salesian Cooperators. In this way, the young Salesians will have a better understanding of the Salesian Cooperator vocation.
    ITM is a promising field regarding Salesian Cooperators. There are several  cooperators already in East Timor, two of whom attended the Macau Congress, and numerous candidates in both East Timor and Indonesia. Fr. Stjepan had opportunity to give formation talks to the 24 candidates in Jakarta.
