Italy. “Padre Antonio M. Claret” community of animators-educators is born Italy. In the afternoon of Friday, November 6, several young people of the Claretian parish of the Heart of Mary of Trieste gathered to bring to life the “Padre Antonio M. Claret” community of animators-educators, with their leader Fr. Massimo Proscia, CMF. Their aim is to become aware of whatever is taking place in the parish (activities, groups, oratory, choir, etc.), in order to be able to better co-ordinate, all together, the youth ministry and to plan the various activities of the pastoral course. To this end, they have entrusted themselves to the figure of Fr. Claret, founder of the Claretian Missionaries, whom they take as model and guide with the commitment of going deeper into the understanding of who this saint really is.
A group of boys and girls have already placed themselves at the disposal of the organizer of these tasks. The next meeting is scheduled for the 14th day of this month of November.
