【慈幼通訊社 ─ 2025 年11月4日羅馬慈幼總部訊】 ─ 總會長歐達德神父的2026-27年贈言海報已經選定並在網上發布。它以圖形表達了本年八月已宣布的贈言：「他無論吩咐你們甚麼，你們就作甚麼。信友們，自由自主參與服務」。以下是海報設計的解釋。
2026-27年贈言海報，以「他無論吩咐你們甚麼，你們就作甚麼。信友們，自由自主參與服務」為主題，視覺上講述了《福音》中關於迦納婚宴的故事。按照總會長提出的四部分結構，插圖強調：瑪利亞（左側）觀察並感知需求；她將這種意識轉向鮑思高神父（中央），象徵著慈幼會使命中的信仰辨識和慈悲行動，兩人共同凝視耶穌（帶著光環），指引方向；前景則展示了僕人們——在傾聽、選擇，並最終分享從罐中變化而來的酒——使社區能夠接受天主的豐盛。
色彩和組合的排列強調了共融、服務與關注：瑪利亞的目光喚醒了意識（觀察），基督的存在賦予了深度和方向（聆聽），僕人們自由而信任的姿態顯示了內心的同意（選擇），而他們端酒的行動則體現了喜樂的服務（行動）。
在構圖的上方，小小的浮動立方體起到了微妙的提醒——提醒我們有時可能會被內心的恐懼、僵化的態度，甚至是那些新時代制度雖承諾進步，卻悄悄地限制了我們對聖神和真正人類自由的開放態度。
整幅圖像提醒我們，當愛聆聽基督的話語時，心靈便能獲得自由去選擇，去服務，並分享天主轉變生命的喜樂。
總會長贈言2026-27的海報以兩種不同的格式（橫向和縱向）製作，目前提供五種語文版本（義大利文、英文、西班牙文、法文和葡萄牙文）。

(ANS – Rome – RMG, 04 November 2025) – The poster that will accompany the Rector Major Fr Fabio Attard’s Strenna for 2026, has been chosen and is now available online. It is a graphic expression of the motto already announced last August: ‘DO WHATEVER HE TELLS YOU. Believers, free to serve’. Below is an explanation of the image that makes up the poster.
The poster for STRENNA 2026, with the theme “DO WHATEVER HE TELLS YOU, Believers, free to serve”, visually recounts the passage from the GOSPEL about the Wedding at Cana. Following the four-part structure proposed by the Rector Major, the illustration highlights: Mary (at left) looks and perceives the need; she turns that awareness toward Don Bosco (center), representing the Salesian mission’s faith-filled discernment and compassionate action, and together they look to Jesus (with the halo), who points the way; the foreground shows the servants — listening, choosing, and finally sharing the transformed wine from the jars — so that the community receives the abundance of God.
Colors and grouping emphasize communion, service, and attentiveness: Mary’s gaze awakens awareness (TO LOOK), the presence of Christ gives depth and direction (TO LISTEN), the servants’ free and trusting gestures reveal interior assent (TO CHOOSE), and their act of carrying the wine manifests joyful service (TO ACT).
Near the top of the composition, the small floating cube serves as a subtle provocation — a reminder of how we can sometimes allow ourselves to be confined by inner fears, rigid attitudes, or even by new ideologies and modern systems that promise progress yet quietly limit our openness to the Spirit and to genuine human freedom.
The whole image is a reminder that when love listens to Christ’s word, the heart finds freedom to choose, to serve, and to share God’s transforming joy.
The poster for the 2026 Strenna has been produced in two different formats (horizontal and vertical) and is currently available in five languages (Italian, English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese).
