這一天以慈幼會總會長與青少年，在華道角劇院的慣常會面開始，而這些青少年正參與第二十一屆傳教宣傳聚會「哈朗貝」，聚會於九月二十五至二十六日，分別在鮑思高崗及都靈舉行。大會主席Massimo Zortea神父及Franco Fontana神父，分別為國際義工關注發展組織的正副會長。查偉思神父講述選取「視生命為恩賜，並為他人接受及付出」，這種聖召文化的重要性。他邀請青少年，讓他們在教育的過程中使自己易於去實踐愛、貞潔、祈禱及自我犧牲，同時指出義工服務是一特殊途徑來活出並體驗這份自我犧牲。
第141批傳教士派遣禮以非洲詩歌及舞蹈開始，而授予傳教十字架典禮，亦有很多信眾、平信徒、青少年、慈幼會士及母佑會修女參與。 查偉思神父在彌撒中說：「基督的救贖，藉著教會的福傳工作，在歷史中不斷延續，直至世界窮盡，鮑思高大家庭也參與其中。」「第141批傳教士派遣禮，顯示透過我們為普世青少年，尤其貧窮的青少年所付出的工作，建設教會，並成為教會一分子。」總會長解說常年期第二十六主日的讀經時強調，向貧窮人傳福音，使我們想起聖史路加，如何展示富有能使人趨向靈性短視，使人心硬並崇拜偶像。「在富翁的比喻中，他身穿紫色細麻衣，天天奢華宴樂，絲毫沒有憐憫那個窮人拉匝祿，他長滿膿瘡，渴望得到富翁吃剩的碎屑充飢，這比喻獲致宏觀宇宙的幅度。」
總會長的講道結尾時，向慈幼會士授予傳教十字架，而Reungoat修女則向母佑會修女授予傳教十字架。

The Rector Major of the Salesians, Fr Pascual Chávez Villanueva, made a strong appeal for there to be “real ethical and cultural revolutions” promoted by people who live “with a mind illuminated by love.” The day was introduced as by now has become usual by the meeting in the Valdocco theatre between the Rector Major of the Salesians and the young people who were taking part in the 21st Harambeé, a missionary promotion meeting held on 25 and 26 September in Colle Don Bosco and Turin. Chairing the meeting were Massimo Zortea and Fr Franco Fontana, respectively the President and Vice President of the International Voluntary Service Movement for Development (VIS). Fr Chávez spoke of the importance of opting for a vocational culture which sees life as a gift, received and offered for others. He invited the young people to let themselves be guided in a process of education to love, to chastity, to prayer and to self-giving while indicating voluntary service as a special path in which to live and experience this self-giving. At the end of his talk the departing missionaries were introduced. Fr Vaklav Klement, Councillor the Mission, introduced the Salesians, Mother Yvonne Reungoat, the 8 Daughters of Mary Help of Christians and those in charge of the Salesian NGO in Italy, Spain, Poland, the Czech Republic . Also remembered among those departing were some not present in Turin because they were already on the missions. Introduced by an African hymn and dance the Mass for the 141st Missionary Expedition and the presentation of the missionary cross was also attended by a good number of the faithful, lay people, young people, Salesians and Daughters of Mary Help of Christians. The salvation obtained by Christ and celebrated in the Mass Fr Chávez said, “continues throughout history to the ends of the world through the Church’s evangelising mission, in which the Family of Don Bosco takes its part”. “The 141st Salesian Missionary Expedition, shows that we, through our commitment to the young of the world especially the poor, are and make the Church.” Commenting on the readings for the XXVI Sunday of the Year the Rector Major emphasised the evangelisation of the poor recalling how the evangelist Luke shows that riches can lead to spiritual shortsightedness and produce a hardening of the heart making people idolaters. “The parable of the rich man dressed in purple and fine linen, feasting every day without any concern for the state of the poor man Lazarus, covered with sores, longing to fill himself with the scraps that fell from the rich man’s table, has acquired macro-cosmic dimensions.” The Rector Major mentioned how the economic and financial crisis had “increased the numbers of the poor in the world, caused a loss in the quality of life of further millions, slowed down development in countries producing huge suffering through unemployment and so much desperation”. Referring to the Encyclical “Caritas in Veritate” of Benedict XVI, Fr Chávez said that the Church is called to “invest in an evangelisation which knows how to respond to the needs of the human family, especially the poorest and in a great work of education, since the social question is becoming more and more radically an anthropological and ethical question.” A world tending towards self-destruction needs a new way of thinking the fruit of the Gospel. “There is urgent need for a new model of mankind, of society of world order.” “This world , this society, have need of a culture of moderation and of solidarity so as to make God’s dream possible.” At the end of his homily the Rector Major presented the missionary cross to the Salesians, and with Mother Reungoat, to the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians. The Mass broadcast live by satellite and by streaming with production by Missioni Don Bosco, ended with a pause in front of the tomb of Don Bosco. Here the Rector Major greeted the departing missionaries reminding them they are now continuing the missionary dream of Don Bosco. On sdb.org and in SDL the full text of Fr Chávez’s homily is available. On ANSchannel a short video summary of the Harambeé and of the commissioning ceremony will also be available. |

他講話完畢後，隨即舉行派遣禮。傳教議員賢明漢神父向參禮者介紹將出發的慈幼會士、溫幗儀修母、八名母佑會修女及那些意大利、西班牙、波蘭、捷克等慈幼非政府組織的負責人，他亦提及那些已抵達傳教地，而未能出席派遣禮的傳教士。
總會長提及經濟及財政危機，如何「使世上貧窮人口增加，造成進一步數以百萬計的人失去生活質素，使國家的發展減慢而產生重大失業困苦及沮喪。」查偉思神父引用教宗本篤十六世的《在真理中實踐愛德》通諭，表示教會被召叫，「投資於一種福傳事業，以瞭解如何回應人類家庭的需要，尤其是最貧窮者，並投資於教育這項偉大的事業，因為社會問題愈來愈完全是人類學及道德問題。」世界正趨向自我毀滅，極需要反省福音果效的新方法。「我們急需人類、社會、及世界秩序的新模式。」
彌撒以人造衛星直接轉播，整個流程的拍攝工作，由鮑思高褔傳媒體中心負責，彌撒結束時，眾人在鮑思高墓前短暫肅立。這時總會長向受派遣的傳教士致以問候，並囑咐他們要繼續履行鮑思高的傳教夢想。
