Cross-Cutting Areas of Animation

Across all sectors, Salesian Youth Ministry integrates key areas of animation:

Education & Culture

Promoting academic excellence and cultural enrichment through holistic educational programmes.

Evangelisation & Catechesis

Fostering spiritual growth and moral development through faith-based guidance. We deepen their faith through catechetical programmes and devotion to the Eucharist and Mary Help of Christians.

Groups & Salesian Youth Movement (SYM)

Creating a group-experience for young people facilitating their social-emotional growth, and propagating the Salesian Youth Spirituality through the SYM.

Vocation and Career Animation

Accompanying young people in the realisation of life as a call, that has a specific purpose, and career is only a means to achieve the purpose. One has to choose also specific vocation in the church: single life, marriage, or religious-priestly life. We propose to some to join the Salesian life.

Family Ministry

Supporting families of our youth through parent meetings in schools, through preparation for marriage in parishes, and formation of our young people to responsible relationships.

Integral Ecology

Through Green Clubs promoting ecological education, spirituality and lifestyle change, sustainable agricultural practices, and environmental stewardship through tree-planting and sustainable waste disposal practices.
