ADMA BARCELLONA, SHRINE OF ST. JOSEPH AND MARY HELP OF CHRISTIANS

On Saturday, 27th March, the various groups of the Salesian Family from the Barcelona-Spain Region (Catalonia, Balearic Islands and Aragon) were finally able to celebrate their feast, which had been prepared since the pandemic.

The Association of Mary Help of Christians of the Salesian mission of Barcelona-Rocafort was the main organiser and animator of the Day. It began with a Eucharist in its large and beautiful church, presided over by the FASA Provincial Delegate, Fr. Luis Fernando Alvarez Sdb, followed by an official function in which figures representing Don Bosco himself, Maria Mazzarello and Mamma Margaret were 'present'. They presented the participating groups in an impressive way: SDB, FMA, Salesian Cooperators, Volunteers, Past Pupils and Salesian Youth Movement. The physical presence and animator of Mrs. Laura Barneto, President of the Adma, Spain National Coordination, and the virtual presence of the new Salesian Provincial of Spain, underlined the importance of the meeting. The young people also had their moment of joy by organising a Valdocco-style 'festive oratory' with various games throughout the large school courtyard. In the photo we can see the representatives of the different groups together which stressed that this fraternal celebration was very positive.
