巴黎於2015年11月13日遭受殘暴的襲擊後，法國及南比利時會省慈幼會及母佑會省會長 Daniel
Federspiel 神父及 Genevieve
Pelsser 修女，發送了一則信息，以回應過去數天他們所收到的眾多信息。
感謝你們與老師及教育者團結一致的信息。感謝你們為那些遭遇橫蠻暴行的家庭祈禱。我們能作的實在不多……
同時，在巴黎多所醫院的眾多醫生及職員，均自發地即時到直接受襲的數個地方服務。星期日早上，很多市民前往捐血。在鄰近受影響的地區，人們開放家園，提供容身之所。自星期六早上，在不同區份的教師，都與青少年談話，幫助他們以合適的說話表達他們的情緒，並啟發他們往後的思維。男男女女都揀選了生命，因為「生命」值得珍惜！
作為慈幼教育者，以我們的方式伴隨年青一代，進行人文及屬神的教育，我們都深刻地遭受挑戰，而挑戰確實巨大。讓我們不致灰心喪志！
慈幼會省會長 Daniel Federspiel 神父及母佑會省會長 Genevieve Pelsser 修女

Message from SDB and FMA Provincials
(ANS - France –Paris, 18 November 2015) – Following the barbaric attacks in Paris on Friday 13 November 2015, Fr Daniel Federspiel, Provincial of the Salesians of Don Bosco and Sr Genevieve Pelsser, Provincial of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians in France-Belgium South, have sent a message in reply to the many messages they received in the past few days.
Thanks for your messages of solidarity with teachers and educators. Thank you for your prayers for those families violently confronted with the absurd. We cannot do much...
Meanwhile, in the hospitals in Paris, many doctors and members of staff have gone spontaneously toSERVE in the places hit in the hours immediately after the attacks. On Sunday morning, many citizens went to DONATE blood. People have opened the doors of their homes, close to the places affected, to offer ACCOMMODATION. Since Saturday morning teachers in different districts have been TALKING to teenagers, helping them to put the right words on their feelings and to develop their thinking further. Men and women have chosen LIFE because Life deserves to be chosen!
As for us, Salesian educators, we are profoundly challenged in our way of accompanying the younger generation in their human and spiritual education. The challenge is immense, let us not be discouraged! "
Fr Daniel Federspiel, SDB, Provincial of the Salesians of Don Bosco and Sister Genevieve Pelsser, FMA, Provincial of the Salesian Sisters of Don Bosco
