Encounter with culture in the world of the young
Encounter with culture
in the world of the young
We look at the young with the eyes of Jesus
We encounter the most needy and the working classes
We need
to look at the young
with the eyes of Jeus
:
They are an opportunity
We need to encounter
within the parameters
of the present culture,
the youth most in need
and the working classes
Encounter with culture
in the world of the young
An attentive listening
to the Spirit will make possible,
an
intelligent understanding
to the great changes in today’s culture
Like Don Bosco:
listen attentively for
an intelligent understanding
Encounter the culture
in the world of the young
Our
attitudes?
Our
pastoral
understanding?
Our convictions?
Our discernment?
We check on:
Our
