【慈幼通訊社 ─ 2019 年 05月 06 日羅馬慈幼總部訊】 ─ 在聖母月開始之際，慈幼家庭總會長代理Eusebio Muñoz神父，再次向慈幼家庭各團體，發送第8屆聖母進教之佑國際大會準備工作的邀請，大會將於2019年11月7至10日，在阿根廷布宜諾斯艾利斯舉行，主題為「與充滿信德的聖母在一起」。有關準備工作的資訊，已載列於以下的網址。
慈幼家庭延續鮑思高神夢的方式，多采多姿，他們懷著與鮑思高同一的渴望，臨於最貧苦無告，亟需人道回應的人們中：「在耶穌基督內的小孩子，不論遠近，我都時常想念你們。我唯一的渴望是看到你們今世及來世快樂幸福。」
然而，這份夢想不單靠人力來實現：我們必須知道，正如鮑思高一樣，是「她成就一切！」
在「偕同瑪利亞 — 信德的女人」這格言之下，慈幼家庭願意更新給聖母進教之佑的託付，恆心致力領受並傳揚信德的恩賜。有150年歷史的聖母進教之佑善會，推動大會進行，使整個慈幼家庭，都感受到聖母進教之佑的帶領，並感謝她不斷賜予的恩佑。
Muñoz神父向慈幼家庭各組別的負責人及領導者，以及鮑思高慈幼會各會省的會長及慈幼家庭各修會代理寫道：「因此，我們都受到邀請，尤其為慈幼家庭各組別而言，去推動緊貼這大會：我們希望鼓勵家庭及青年的參與。事實上，大會是為陪伴青年及家庭，行走成聖之路而設的：「偕同瑪利亞 — 信德的女人」，讓我們不僅視她為典範，卻也視為青年與他們的同行者在旅途上的指導與助佑。這是世代相傳的承諾。」

8th International Congress of Mary Help of Christians: all logistical information available
(ANS – Rome–RMG, 06 May 2019) – On the occasion of the beginning of the Marian month – May -, Fr Eusebio Muñoz, Delegate of the Rector Major for the Salesian Family, renews the invitation to the groups of the Salesian Family to participate in the VIII International Congress of Mary Help of Christians, to be held from 7 to 10 November 2019 in Buenos Aires (Argentina); its title: “With Mary, Woman who believes“. All information on how to participate is available on the web cited below.
Many are the ways in which the Salesian Family continues the dream of Don Bosco, present in all the places where the poorest and least expect a response of humanity, with the sole desire of Don Bosco: “My dear children in Jesus Christ, near or far, I always think of you. I have only one desire: to see you happy in time and in eternity.”
But this dream cannot be fulfilled with human strength alone: we must acknowledge, as Don Bosco did, that: “She did it all!”
Under the motto “With Mary, Woman who believes”, the Salesian Family now wants to renew this entrustment to Mary Help of Christians, persevering in the commitment to receive and transmit the gift of faith. Promoted by the Association of Mary Help of Christians on the 150th anniversary of its foundation, the Congress is an event aimed at the whole Salesian Family that feels brought together by Mary Help of Christians, to thank her for the gifts she continually donates.
Directly addressing the superiors and leaders of the Groups of the Salesian Family, as well as to the Provincials of the Salesians of Don Bosco and to the Provincial Delegates of the Salesian Family, Fr Muñoz writes: “We are therefore all invited, especially the Groups of the Salesian Family, to promote and adhere to this event: we would like it to encourage the participation of families and young people. The Congress will in fact be dedicated to the accompaniment of young people and families on the path to holiness: “With Mary, Woman who believes”, let us look at her who is not only a model, but also a guide and help in the journey of the young and those who accompany them. A commitment that is passed on from generation to generation.”
