Purposes of the pilgrimage:
- Empowering Salesian Family members to take the lead in combined family and youth ministry at home.
- Formation of Salesian Family members in our history, charism, spirituality, and mission by visiting our Salesian Holy Places with guided prayer, reflection, and sharing – focusing on being Salesian disciples and apostles.
- Growth in our sensus ecclesiae, belonging to the Salesian Family, and living our lives oriented around Don Bosco’s 3 loves: Mary, Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, and the Holy Father.
We have a team of Salesian Family Leaders comprised of FMA, SDB, and SSCC who are preparing special activities for the various groups on the pilgrimage: young adults (18-30 years of age), with a vocational thrust; families with younger children with a focus on the Preventive System and family life; single and married adults, with vocation, mission, and Salesian vocation orientation; and children & teens, with a view to seeking God’s Will for them in their lives and to live as faithful Catholics.
