El Baba: Evangelist Y

Isabella Peru – the Vatican city

Young people like “Berkano de Vida” and teachers as ministers and missionaries: These two pictures of the world of the school presented by Pope Liu fourteen to the brothers ’fans in Christian schools – founded by San Juan Baotista de la Sally – this morning, May 15, in Clementina’s room. In the background of the meeting, a special anniversary: ​​the third centenary of the edition of the bull In the Apostolic DignityThe thirteenth Benedict approved on the institute and al -Qaeda (January 26, 1725), and the seventy -fifth anniversary of the Pius XII announcement from La Sal as a “heavenly shepherd for all teachers” (1950).

Young people know how to do great things, but they must grow in harmony

Despite their history, although the Christian school brothers were not lost today: the ink emphasized it in his speech, noting how Salle’s ability to respond creatively in the many difficulties of his time, as well as adventure through new paths often unquestioned “(this French and traditional model, for example, who launched the” refrigerated revolution “.

Young people, like them at all times, are a volcano of life, energy, feelings, and ideas. This can be seen in the great things they can do, in many fields. However, they also need help, so that this wealth grows in harmony and to avoid, although it is different from the past, they can still prevent their health development.

Isolation, superficial, individual: today’s challenges

“In fact, today yesterday, young generations face many obstacles:”

Think of isolation from relationships that are increasingly characterized by superficiality, individual and emotional instability; The spread of studied models is weak of relativity; The spread of rhythms and lifestyles in which there is not enough space to listen, think and dialogue, in school, in the family, and sometimes among the contemporaries themselves, with a feeling of unity derived from it.

Helping students to provide their best

The Pope says that “difficult challenges” must become “the release of trampoline” to develop new tools and languages, which “touch the hearts of students, help them and motivate them to face every obstacle in front of themselves in life, according to God’s designs.”

“The altar is the chair”

Central, then, will also be the formation of teachers, according to this principle that Salle loved, meaning that “teaching lived as a service and a task, such as dedication in the church”:

San Juan Potista de la did not want to obtain priests among Christian school teachers, but only “the brothers”, so that all their efforts, with the help of God, were directed to teach students. He liked to say: “His altar is the chair”, and thus promoting in the Church of his time is a reality until then unknown: the investment of ordinary teachers and education in society is a real “ministry”.

The synergy is necessary between the components of the composition

After the aftermath of Pope Francis, Leo fourteen remembers the principle of “evangelism and educating evangelization”, and finally emphasizes the importance of “synergy” among all “formative components”.
