TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8180OMELIA DELL'ASCENSIONE - ANNO C (Lc 24,46-53) di Don Stefano Bimbi Celebriamo la Solennità dell'Ascensione, un momento che non è solo un "arrivederci" di Gesù al cielo, ma un passaggio decisivo che ci coinvolge direttamente. Il Vangelo di Luca che abbiamo ascoltato ci presenta un Gesù che, prima di salire al Padre, affida ai discepoli una missione e una promessa.LA MISSIONE DI CRISTO: SOFFERENZA, RISURREZIONE E PERDONOGesù inizia spiegando ai discepoli che il suo percorso - la sofferenza, la morte e la risurrezione - non è stato un caso, ma il compimento di un disegno divino. Nel suo nome, il perdono dei peccati deve essere annunciato a tutti i popoli, a partire da Gerusalemme. Questo ci ricorda che la fede non è solo un'esperienza personale, ma è anche una chiamata a far parte della missione della Chiesa di portare al mondo intero la buona notizia. Tu sei chiamato non solo a ricevere il perdono di Cristo, ma a portarlo agli altri, ovunque tu sia. Come stai vivendo la chiamata a essere testimone del perdono di Cristo nella tua vita quotidiana? C'è qualcuno nella tua cerchia - un familiare, un collega, un amico - che ha bisogno di un ascolto attento, una parola di incoraggiamento, un atto di riconciliazione? A chi puoi annunciare il Vangelo perché si converta a Cristo?San Francesco d'Assisi è un modello potente di come vivere questa missione. Non si limitò a predicare con le parole, ma con la sua vita. Fu un esempio di umiltà. A chi lo elogiava diceva di essere la persona peggiore di tutte, perché se Gesù ne avesse trovata una peggiore avrebbe scelto lei per far risaltare meglio la sua potenza. Inoltre andò incontro ai lebbrosi e ai poveri per portare il conforto di Cristo. Volle persino incontrare il sultano d'Egitto per convertirlo al Vangelo. Non riuscì a portarlo alla vera Fede, ma avendolo favorevolmente impressionato ottenne il permesso per i cristiani di visitare i luoghi santi. Da allora la Custodia francescana di Terra Santa permette la presenza cristiana nei luoghi di Gesù.TESTIMONI CON LA VITAGesù aggiunge: "Di questo voi siete testimoni". Essere testimoni non significa solo parlare di Gesù, ma vivere in modo che la nostra vita racconti la sua presenza. In un mondo che spesso ci spinge a competere, a emergere, a pensare solo a noi stessi, essere testimoni di Cristo significa scegliere la via dell'amore come donazione, dell'onestà come rispetto degli altri, della generosità verso gli altri come risposta alla generosità di Dio verso di noi. Pensa a una situazione concreta: al lavoro, quando tutti cercano di fare carriera a scapito degli altri, tu puoi scegliere di collaborare con umiltà. Oppure, sui social, dove spesso prevalgono critiche e giudizi, tu puoi condividere parole che costruiscono.Un esempio straordinario è San Giovanni Bosco, che ha dedicato la sua vita ai giovani di Torino, spesso emarginati e senza futuro. Con il suo sorriso e la sua dedizione, ha mostrato loro che Dio li amava. Ogni ragazzo che ha incontrato è diventato per lui un'occasione per testimoniare Cristo. E tu, in quali momenti della tua giornata puoi essere un testimone credibile di Gesù? Quali scelte puoi fare per far vedere che la tua fede non è solo parole, ma vita?LA FORZA DELLO SPIRITO E LA GIOIA DELLA LODEPrima di salire al cielo, Gesù promette ai discepoli la "potenza dall'alto", lo Spirito Santo, e li invita ad aspettare la Pentecoste con fiducia. E loro, dopo l'Ascensione, tornano a Gerusalemme "con grande gioia", lodando Dio. Questo ci insegna due cose: primo, che non siamo soli nella missione; secondo, che la Fede è fonte di una gioia che nessuno può toglierci. Lo Spirito Santo è la forza che trasforma le nostre paure in coraggio, le nostre incertezze in speranza. E la gioia? È il segno che Cristo è con noi, anche quando non lo vediamo.San Filippo Neri, noto come il "santo della gioia", nel XVI secolo trasformava le strade di Roma in un luogo di festa e preghiera. Organizzava pellegrinaggi, incontri e momenti di allegria per i giovani, mostrando che la fede è motivo di felicità profonda. La sua capacità di ridere e far ridere, anche in tempi difficili, ci sfida: come puoi portare la gioia del Vangelo nei tuoi ambienti, magari con un sorriso o un gesto di speranza?Quali momenti della tua giornata o della tua settimana dedichi a lodare Dio, magari attraverso la preghiera, la Messa o mettendo in pratica le opere di misericordia corporali e spirituali? Conosci le opere di misericordia corporali e spirituali? Prendi l'impegno di metterne in pratica una alla settimana e poi verifica se lo hai fatto.UNO SGUARDO AL CIELO, I PIEDI SULLA TERRAL'Ascensione non è la fine della storia di Gesù, ma l'inizio della nostra missione. Cristo sale al cielo, ma ci promette il dono dello Spirito Santo e ci invita ad essere suoi testimoni, portare il suo perdono, vivere con gioia.Il mondo ha bisogno di qualcuno che ricordi la salvezza portata da Gesù. Qualcuno che indichi le realtà del Cielo. Non dobbiamo aver paura di essere diversi, di scegliere la via di Cristo in un mondo che spesso va in un'altra direzione. Come i discepoli dobbiamo tornare alla nostra "Gerusalemme" - la famiglia, il lavoro, le amicizie - con grande gioia, sapendo che lo Spirito ci guida.Preghiamo Maria, Regina degli Apostoli, affinché ci aiuti a vivere questa missione con coraggio e amore. E ora, prenditi un momento per rileggere il brano e rispondere in silenzio alle domande proposte sopra. Chiediti infine: Cosa mi sta dicendo Gesù oggi? Come posso rispondere alla sua chiamata con la mia vita?Che lo Spirito Santo ti guidi e ti doni la gioia di essere suo testimone!

Roberto Alessandrini"Il santo educatore"Don Bosco nell'immaginario popolareBibliotheka Edizioniwww.bibliotheka.itTra la fine degli anni Venti e gli anni Quaranta del Novecento prende forma e si consolida l'immagine di Don Bosco che, tra le tante, diverrà iconica e sarà continuamente riproposta fino ad oggi.La beatificazione del sacerdote piemontese (1929) e la successiva canonizzazione (1934) mettono in moto un processo selettivo che privilegia una fotografia del santo scattata da Michele Schemboche, allievo di Nadar e tra i pionieri della fotografia in Italia.Il dipinto di Mario Caffaro Rore che rielabora la foto viene a sua volta fotografato per favorire un'ampia diffusione in immaginette e cartoline e ispira una serie di figurine Liebig alla metà degli anni Quaranta e, in parte, anche la monumentale biografia bestseller del santo, firmata, sempre nello stesso decennio, dal disegnatore belga Joseph Gillain, in arte Jijé.Roberto Alessandrini insegna Antropologia culturale all'Università Pontificia Salesiana di Roma e all'Istituto universitario Pratesi di Soverato (Catanzaro).Ha tradotto testi di René Girard, Anatole France e François Le Lionnais, curato l'edizione italiana della Bibbia contadina di Annamária Lammel e Ilona Nagy e pubblicato saggi sulle riviste Antigone, Orientamenti Pedagogici, Salesianum, Il confronto letterario, Lifelong, Lifewide Learning ed Educazione aperta.Tra i suoi libri recenti: Sagome inquiete. Ombre e silhouette dalle figurine al cinema (Franco Cosimo Panini, 2011), Bibbia e Arte (Claudiana-Emi, 2012) e, con Roberto Piumini, Antigone in Polesine (Scalpendi, 2025). IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8158OMELIA IV DOM. DI PASQUA - ANNO C (Gv 10, 27-30) di Don Stefano Bimbi Gesù è il Buon Pastore, un'immagine che parla direttamente al cuore, anche a noi oggi, che spesso ci sentiamo smarriti in un mondo caotico, pieno di voci contrastanti e incertezze. Questo passo ci invita a riflettere sulla relazione profonda che possiamo avere con Gesù, sul suo amore che ci protegge e ci guida, e sulla nostra identità di figli di Dio."LE MIE PECORE ASCOLTANO LA MIA VOCE E IO LE CONOSCO ED ESSE MI SEGUONO"Gesù descrive un rapporto di fiducia e intimità: le sue pecore riconoscono la sua voce e lo seguono. In un mondo pieno di distrazioni - tv, social media, notifiche continue sul cellulare, pressioni sociali - ascoltare la voce di Gesù può sembrare difficile. La sua voce non è rumorosa, non è un post virale o un trend, ma è quella voce dolce e costante che parla al nostro cuore, magari in un momento di silenzio, in preghiera, o attraverso la Parola di Dio. Gesù ci conosce profondamente, più di quanto noi conosciamo noi stessi: conosce i nostri sogni, le nostre paure, le nostre insicurezze. E ci invita a seguirlo, non come un obbligo, ma come un atto di amore e fiducia.Pensiamo alla fiducia in Dio che i santi hanno dimostrato. San Francesco d'Assisi era un giovane pieno di sogni e ambizioni mondane. Ma un giorno, mentre pregava nella chiesetta di San Damiano, sentì la voce di Gesù che gli diceva: "Francesco, va' e ripara la mia casa". Quella voce cambiò la sua vita: lasciò tutto per seguire Cristo, trovando una gioia che non aveva mai conosciuto prima. Anche tu puoi imparare ad ascoltare quella voce interiore che ti chiama a qualcosa di più grande. Quali "voci" ascolti di più nella tua vita quotidiana? Sono voci che ti avvicinano a Gesù o che ti allontanano da Lui? Come puoi creare spazio per la preghiera nella tua routine quotidiana? Riesci a sentire che Gesù ti conosce come il pastore che conosce ogni singola pecora? C'è qualcosa di te che vorresti affidargli oggi?"IO DO LORO LA VITA ETERNA E NON ANDRANNO PERDUTE IN ETERNO"Gesù fa una promessa straordinaria: la vita eterna. Ma non si tratta solo di una vita dopo la morte; la vita eterna inizia già ora, quando viviamo in comunione con Lui. Con la Grazia che ci arriva principalmente dai sacramenti partecipiamo già da ora alla vita soprannaturale. Per noi così concentrati sul presente - la famiglia, il lavoro, le relazioni - questa promessa ci ricorda che c'è un orizzonte più grande. Gesù ci dice che non siamo fatti per perderci, per rimanere intrappolati nei nostri peccati o nelle difficoltà e fatiche della vita. Anche quando sbagliamo, anche quando ci sentiamo lontani da Dio, Lui ci cerca, come un pastore che va a recuperare la pecora smarrita (che siamo noi). La vita eterna è una vita piena, una vita che ha senso perché è vissuta con Lui.Santa Teresa di Lisieux, la "piccola Teresa", è un esempio potente. Anche se era giovane e fragile, spesso si sentiva inadeguata e piena di limiti. Ma si affidò completamente a Gesù, scegliendo la "piccola via" dell'amore e della fiducia totale a Dio. Disse: "Tutto è grazia". Nonostante le sue insicurezze, trovò la vera vita in Cristo, una vita che continua ad affascinare milioni di persone. Anche tu, con la tua fragilità, puoi trovare questa pienezza. Cosa significa per te "vita eterna"? Ti capita di cercare la felicità in cose che non durano (successo, approvazione, piaceri momentanei)? Chiediti quali passi concreti puoi fare per vivere una vita più piena, in comunione con Cristo, già da oggi."NESSUNO LE STRAPPERÀ DALLA MIA MANO"Le parole di Gesù sono un balsamo per l'anima. Viviamo in un mondo in cui ci sentiamo spesso vulnerabili: le insicurezze sul futuro, le pressioni sociali, le tentazioni del demonio, le difficoltà relazionali. Ma Gesù ci rassicura: siamo nelle sue mani e nessuno può strapparci da lì. Questo non significa che non affronteremo sfide, ma che non saremo mai soli. La sua protezione è più forte di qualsiasi cosa: più forte delle nostre paure, più forte del male, più forte di tutto ciò che cerca di allontanarci da Lui.San Giovanni Bosco, che dedicò la sua vita ai giovani, è un esempio di questa fiducia. Don Bosco affrontò tantissime difficoltà: povertà, critiche, ostacoli nel suo lavoro con i ragazzi di strada. Ma non si perse mai d'animo, perché si sentiva guidato e protetto da Dio. Spesso diceva ai suoi ragazzi: "Affidatevi a Maria Ausiliatrice e a Gesù e non sarete mai soli". Anche noi possiamo trovare forza in questa promessa di Gesù.Quali sono le cose che ti fanno sentire vulnerabile o insicuro nella tua vita? Ti capita di dubitare della protezione di Dio? Puoi rafforzare la fiducia in Lui migliorando la tua preghiera quotidiana. Chiediti se c'è una situazione concreta in cui puoi chiedere a Gesù di tenerti nella sua mano e guidarti."IL PADRE MIO, CHE ME LE HA DATE, È PIÙ GRANDE DI TUTTI E NESSUNO PUÒ STRAPPARLE DALLA MANO DEL PADRE"Gesù ci ricorda che la nostra appartenenza a Lui non è casuale: è il Padre che ci ha affidati a Lui. Questo ci fa capire che c'è un progetto su ciascuno di noi e quanto siamo preziosi agli occhi di Dio. Non siamo qui per caso: siamo voluti, amati, scelti. E il Padre, che è "più grande di tutti", veglia su di noi. Per chi è incerto su quale sia il suo posto nel mondo, questa affermazione è un'ancora: siamo figli di un Padre che ci ama infinitamente, e questo dà senso alla nostra vita.Santa Chiara d'Assisi, che seguì San Francesco nella sua vocazione, ebbe la necessaria fiducia in Gesù. Chiara lasciò una vita di agi per seguire Cristo in povertà, affidandosi completamente alla provvidenza di Dio. Quando il convento delle sue suore fu minacciato dall'arrivo dei saraceni, Santa Chiara uscì con l'eucaristia confidando nell'aiuto del suo buon Gesù. Alla sua vista i musulmani scapparono lasciando in pace Chiara con le sue sorelle. Affidarsi a Gesù cambia il modo di affrontare le difficoltà. La Fede dona la certezza che il nostro Padre Celeste è onnipotente e sa Lui quando intervenire nella nostra vita e quando invece permettere il male per trarne un bene superiore. E tu ringrazi il Padre per l'amore e la protezione con cui ti ha guidato finora?"IO E IL PADRE SIAMO UNA COSA SOLA"Gesù rivela la sua unità con il Padre, un'unità che è il cuore della Trinità. Questo ci dice qualcosa di profondo sull'amore: Dio non è un'entità lontana, ma una comunione d'amore in cui siamo invitati a entrare. Per noi che cerchiamo relazioni autentiche e profonde, questa unità è un modello: l'amore vero non divide, ma unisce. E Gesù ci invita a vivere in questa comunione, non solo con Lui, ma anche con gli altri, costruendo relazioni basate sull'amore e sulla fede in Lui.San Giovanni Paolo II anche nei momenti più difficili - come l'attentato del 1981 - ha sempre testimoniato un'unione profonda con Dio, che si rifletteva nel suo amore per il gregge che Gesù gli ha affidato quando è diventato Papa. Poco dopo l'elezione a Sommo Pontefice disse: "Non abbiate paura! Spalancate le porte a Cristo!". Anche tu sei chiamato a vivere questa comunione, senza paura. Come puoi "spalancare le porte" a Cristo nella tua vita? Quali porte hai ancora chiuse?In conclusione, il vangelo di questa domenica ci parla di un amore che non ci lascia mai: il Padre e il Figlio ci tengono stretti nelle loro mani. È un invito a fidarci, a seguire la voce di Gesù anche quando il mondo ci confonde, a vivere con la certezza che siamo amati e protetti dal Padre celeste. Prendiamoci un momento per pregare e affidarci a Lui, chiedendogli di aiutarci a riconoscerlo come nostro Pastore e a seguirlo con tutto il cuore.

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the First Week of Lent Lectionary: 224The Saint of the day is Saint Dominic SavioSaint Dominic Savio's Story So many holy persons seem to die young. Among them was Dominic Savio, the patron of choirboys. Born into a peasant family at Riva, Italy, young Dominic joined Saint John Bosco as a student at the Oratory in Turin at the age of 12. He impressed Don Bosco with his desire to be a priest and to help him in his work with neglected boys. A peacemaker and an organizer, young Dominic founded a group he called the Company of the Immaculate Conception which, besides being devotional, aided John Bosco with the boys and with manual work. All the members save one, Dominic, would, in 1859, join Don Bosco in the beginnings of his Salesian congregation. By that time, Dominic had been called home to heaven. As a youth, Dominic spent hours rapt in prayer. His raptures he called “my distractions.” Even in play, he said that at times, “It seems heaven is opening just above me. I am afraid I may say or do something that will make the other boys laugh.” Dominic would say, “I can't do big things. But I want all I do, even the smallest thing, to be for the greater glory of God.” Dominic's health, always frail, led to lung problems and he was sent home to recuperate. As was the custom of the day, he was bled in the thought that this would help, but it only worsened his condition. He died on March 9, 1857, after receiving the Last Sacraments. Saint John Bosco himself wrote the account of his life. Some thought that Dominic was too young to be considered a saint. Saint Pius X declared that just the opposite was true, and went ahead with his cause. Dominic was canonized in 1954. His liturgical feast is celebrated on March 9. Reflection Like many a youngster, Dominic was painfully aware that he was different from his peers. He tried to keep his piety from his friends lest he have to endure their laughter. Even after his death, his youth marked him as a misfit among the saints and some argued that he was too young to be canonized. Pope Pius X wisely disagreed. For no one is too young—or too old or too anything else—to achieve the holiness to which we all are called.

He flew all the way from the United Kingdom to Waco, Texas, to be on this podcast. So James, tell us a little bit about what you've been doing here in central Texas these last couple of days. James: Yeah, I've been spoiled. I've just had the best cheese and ham roll, ever. I can tell you a lot about Texan food now. And brisket. But the quality of the experiences, the visiting the schools, meeting you at Baylor has been a terrific privilege. I'm very grateful. Yeah, today, this morning, in fact, we visited three schools in Waco Independent School District. We were shown around by the loveliest people, Adam, Caroline, and Christie. I think Adam and Caroline are on from your doctoral program. Jon Eckert: Yes. James: But they're like institutional coaches. I gather. We would call them improvement offices where I come from, but they had such a light touch. They knew everyone. They were so friendly with people, and I gather that they are also about compliance, but with the coaching aspects. So they were great. And the three schools we went to, we were Midway yesterday, which was amazing. And then this morning, Bells Hill Elementary, Cesar Chavez, and then GWAMA, Greater Waco Advanced Manufacturing Academy earlier. And yeah, what impressed me was speaking honestly as an English person, it is shocking to see police in a school. Very quickly, I was unaware of them. But we have our own issues in the UK with knives and all sorts. But the staff were, despite that, throughout just so calm, friendly, loving, and attentive to the students. Asking them, talking to them in front of us. And some wonderful experienced people, trauma informed. There was someone who was training to be a social worker this morning who just came out of her office and gave us a short speech without any preparation, speaking from the heart, talking about what she was doing, how much the children matter. If you've got people like that, then you are going to be doing the right stuff. So yeah, I was impressed. But also from the type of education, obviously Texas is massive. The school footprint, I've never been into such big schools, even the elementary and yesterday with Midway, that was the biggest school I've ever been in. It took us a long time to walk around. And all of the stuff, like this morning at GWAMA, we saw robotics, drones, they have the construction academy, welding, forklift truck driving. Yesterday we saw them building an airplane. When I was doing metalwork at school, it was for like a baked potato holder. They were building an airplane. And I would love that as a student. I would be inspired by that even if I was building a small part of the airplane. Rebuilding tractors yesterday. So that's practical. That's 21st century teaching, but visible, practical, hands-on. Jon Eckert: And then the engagement that you see that's possible there through starting a cafe restaurant through the airplanes. Just to be clear to the audience, the students are not doing this on their own. It's a two-seat airplane that would be like a Cessna, and they have engineers coming in to help build. I still am not going to be the first person that volunteers to fly in that, but it was impressive to see. And I do feel like in central Texas, there are a number of schools doing a lot to try to meet the needs of the community by educating kids in ways that engage them, use the skills that they've been given, help them become more of who they're created to be in a way that benefits the community. And even the principal yesterday, Allison Smith, was sharing about the new factory that's coming in that's got a gigantic footprint, and it's going to be a huge benefit to the tax base. Before they came, they met with the high school to see if there were ways that they could integrate some of the needs they have with what the high school's developing in their students. Because at Midway, about half the students go on to a post-secondary education. And so there have to be opportunities for kids to step into things that allow them to be gainfully employed and meaningfully use the skills that they have. And many of the kids were doing things that I couldn't even fathom doing. And they're just leaning into it and gaining expertise, which is for 16, 17, 18 year olds is truly remarkable. James: Isn't that also a bit like a UDL mindset? If the manufacturer comes in and has that intelligence to ask about what would you need? What would be helpful? And then you're designing the education from the ground up. Jon Eckert: That's it. And I'm glad you brought up Universal Design for Learning, because that's something that we haven't really gotten into. Why you're here and what you do in the United Kingdom, because we actually, Eric Ellison, met you a while ago. But you were the reason why we were at a UNESCO conference in Paris where we got to work with educators from six continents that were all interested in UDL and what it means to educate each kid around the world. And there's 250 million kids that don't have access to a school. And then we're in these amazing schools where the biggest schools you've been in that are offering all these different opportunities. And so we're getting to see it, but what does it really look like from your perspective, from your organization as it relates to UDL? James: Yeah. So interesting, I am a teacher, head teacher, classroom teacher from some 25 years. And for me, it's all about practical teaching and talking to parents, making things work. But at a very practical level. And one thing that drew me to my organization, which is the IFIP, International Forums of Inclusion Practitioners, was that when I met Daniel, who's a fabulous person to work for, it's much more practitioner based. It's all about pedagogies. I felt at home straight away. But also, how do we train teachers? How do we bring them on into inclusive practice? And the IFIP is all about the voice of teachers. Daniel would say inclusionistas, all manner and range of people, teachers, specialists, therapists, but parents as well, who are committed to a more equitable and enriching education. So the majority of what we do is training. We have things like our GITI program, which is a global inclusive teaching initiative. But we do events. And that's something that Daniel, one of his strengths, he speaks all over the world. He's written many books. We were so, so grateful to have the event at UNESCO in Paris. So we were co-hosting. Daniel had been talking about that for two years beforehand. And we didn't believe him. He made it a reality. He dreamt about it, and it happened. And the same more recently in Brazil. We went to the G-20 ministerial meeting. He was talking about that. So he sees things and it falls to me to follow behind him and try and make some of the practicalities work. But yeah, the inclusion piece covers so many flavors. And I think what you mentioned just now, we talk about inclusion. Well, if the 250 million aren't in school, well, that's a level of inclusion that puts lots of other schools into a completely different context. Where does the inclusion start? And even in some of the schools I visited, I've been very lucky to visit schools around the world who would say they're inclusive and they may have a sensory room, or they may have, but they aren't necessarily inclusive. But for me, one of my favorite schools I've visited was in Rome, [foreign language 00:08:28], Our Lady of Good Counsel. It was run by Silesia nuns. And they said in the words of their founder, Don Bosco, "Young people need not only to be loved, but they need to know that they're loved." And it's very reassuring as a practitioner, a teacher, former head teacher, to come here to Texas and you see that. You see that palpably going on. And I feel at home. The elementary school this morning, because I was a primary school teacher, it was just like, I know this. I understand this. I could probably take a lesson. But they had some great ideas. And teachers, I'm a teacher, you love stealing good ideas. Jon Eckert: Well, and I think this is the beautiful thing about the jobs that we get to do. We get to see all the amazing things that are happening in schools. So much of what's in the news and what gets publicized are the things that aren't working. And the tragedy that there are 250 million kids who don't have access to schools, that is tragic. But in schools, there are amazing things happening all over the world. And getting to see them is this encouraging, oh, it gives you hope. And I wish more people could see that. I do think there are challenges though, because when we think about inclusion, we've moved as a country toward inclusive education, the least restrictive environment for students, and bringing students into a place where they can flourish. But we really, as Erik Carter, who runs our Baylor Center for Developmental Disability, you met with him yesterday. He talks about moving from inclusion to belonging. And I think we even need to think about belonging to mattering. So you keep hearing more and more about what does it means to matter and seeing your gifts being used with others. And that's what we saw yesterday. It wasn't individual students. It was teams of students doing this and each member of the team had a different role, whether it was robotics or it was the plane or the cafe. And the educators needed to step in. So the principal was talking about, I need an educator who's willing to step up and do this so that this can happen. And that's the thing that I think people that haven't been in schools for a while don't see what it means to really help kids belong. They have a sense of what inclusion was, maybe when they were in school, where there was a class down the way that was a Sensory room, which is a nice room for just, here's where we're going to put a kid who's out of control that we can't manage in so many places. It's like, no, there's so many schools that are doing so much more than that. So what are some other hopeful things you've seen through IFIP? James: Well, I think, yeah, you see a lot and on social media, and you must have found this, there's so much many aphorisms about inclusion and metaphors about what inclusion is. It's a mosaic. It's a banquet with many tastes. It's symphony orchestra with many sounds. Inclusion is a garden. That's quite a good one actually, the metaphor. And that's something that Sir Ken Robinson from the UK has talked a lot about. And there's lots of analogies with growing and flourishing, which that's a word you've taught me in my visit here. But I do feel sometimes that it is all good to talk about that. I don't disagree. But there's some recently inclusion makes every day feel special. Yeah, it does. Inclusion is the antidote to the division in the world. It is. But will that help the early career teacher struggle with their class? Will that give them the practical steps that they need? So I think all of those things are true, and we must love the students. But I would say that's just comes a standard with being a decent human being. I would expect that from you, from anyone. You treat people with a respect. But for me, I feel more inclined to say, what are the practical professional steps? What's the pedagogy? What are the teaching principles that will help me to, as we were saying yesterday, maybe to hesitate before ask another question in class and listen. And listen. That's inclusion, isn't it? Wait for someone to answer and maybe then not say anything. It's actually stepping back. So for me, I'm very impressed by... I mean, I was brought up on quality first teaching, we would call it in the UK, which is about high quality, inclusive teaching for every child. So you mustn't differentiate in a way that you've got the low table. No one wants to be on the low table. You want to have high challenge on every table. And we used to say, you want your best teacher on the lowest table. It's not like you just put a teaching assistant or some volunteer on the lowest table. It's got to be focus lesson design, involvement, interaction, metacognition. So responsibility for your own teaching, for your own learning. Sorry. And I love the dialogic approach. Someone said yesterday, Socratic circle that I've picked up. But it's like you would encourage a child to talk about what they understand because very quickly then you assess what they actually know. Sometimes you'd be surprised by what they know. But for the same reason, UDL appeals to me, to my sensibility, because it offers very practical steps. And crucially at the design stage, it's not like I'm going to apply this assistive technology to a lesson I created a year ago and will do the best we can, and that child will now be able to do more than they could. But if I design the lesson, and one of our colleagues, Helena Wallberg from Sweden, who was a co-author on the Global Inclusive Teaching Initiative, she talks about lesson design. It's a far sexier way than lesson planning. So teachers are professionals, they're artists. They need to use their profession. Jon Eckert: So when you start thinking about design, I use Paideia seminars because Socratic seminars are great, but Socrates taught one-on-one. We don't usually get the luxury of doing that. So how do you bring in the gifts of each student, not so that you're doing something kind or helpful for that individual, but so that the whole group benefits from the collective wisdom in the classroom? And so the inclusive education is not to benefit one single individual, it's to benefit all of us because of what you draw out. And that's where design, I think, is more helpful than planning. And so when we think about this in this state that we're in right now, we've never been in a better time to educate. We have more tools than we've ever had. We know more about how people learn than we have in the history of the world. James: Yeah. Jon Eckert: And yet sometimes that can make things feel overwhelming. So that beginning teacher that you mentioned. The only thing that beginning teacher knows is no one in the room learns exactly the way she does. That's all you know. And so then how do you use tools... And we've talked a little bit about this artificial intelligence. Amazing tool for adapting reading levels, for adapting basic feedback, for giving an educator a helpful boost on lesson design because it can synthesize from large language models. It can do work that would've taken us hours in five seconds. But it can't replace the human being. And so how do you see tools like artificial intelligence feeding into UDL so that it becomes more human, not less? James: So where I am, there's a shortage of specialist teachers, for example, and therapists. And Daniel's been doing a lot of work in India and parts of Asia where there isn't the expertise. So I think maybe AI can help in those places. But even he would say that will not replace a specialist. You can never replace a specialist who has the intuitive and curiosity to see what an AI system can't. But it may empower parents who have no kind of training as a teacher might have for neurodiverse situations of how do I deal with my child when they're like this? And similar for teachers and who are looking for... They've tried everything. What do I try now? So we've been working on one on an AI system that's based on all of the research that Daniel's done. It's not released yet. We've got a working title of 360 Assessment, which doesn't really mean anything, but it was meant to be assessing the whole child. And he's, through his work in many schools over many years, many thousands of hours, he's put all of this stuff into the data for the AI system coupled with his books. So when you ask a question, it will do a quick spin round and come back with some suggestions. And it's quite fun to use, I think, as a tool to empower parents to signpost them. And for teachers, it's a useful tool. I don't think it's the panacea, but I think you have to use these technologies sensibly. But my daughter, who's a nursery nurse, and she tried to break it by saying, oh... We tried it, the computer. My child is two years old, but can't pronounce S. should I be worried? And it came back with the correct answer, said no, there's nothing to worry about. Up to four years old, some children won't be able to pronounce the sound S properly. And then it gave her the advice that she would give, because a manager of a nursery nurse, the advice you'd give to her staff. Now all of her team have just started that. None of them have any experience. So that, I could see, could be useful for training numbers, the ratio of good advice to people. That's the way I see it working in the short term. Jon Eckert: No, and I think that's great because it enhances the human's ability to meet the need of the human right in front of them. Because I will always believe that teaching is one of the most human things that we do. James: It is. Jon Eckert: And so any way that we can enhance that with any tool, whether it's a pencil or an artificial intelligence tool that allows you to give feedback and synthesize things and help with design. I also believe we just need to give credit where credit's due. I don't love it when we don't give credit for tools that we use. So if you're using UDL, they're a great people cast. We're about to have a call with them later today. They do great work. And so the same thing. If you have a digital tool, share that so that we know here's what we did and here's how we can spread that collective expertise to others. And so what role does IFIP play in bringing networks of people together to do that? Because in your convenings, that's one of the main things you do. So can you talk a little bit about that? James: Yeah. Well, in the title if you like, in our forums, one of the things that Daniel is very keen on is sustainable growth. So we want to introduce people to each other. And it's surprising with head teachers and principals who struggle. I've just come back from Brazil from a UNESCO GEM, which is a global education meeting, where the focus was on the quality of the leadership. And we need to give, empower our leaders. They're often working on their own. One of the roles of the IFIP is to join them together. So we're launching in January at the BET Show, which is the biggest technology show in the world, apparently, in London Excel Center, our Global School Principals Forum. So we have a forum for them. We have a forum for specialists, forum for pastoral leads. And we've also got regional forums of South America, North America, Asia, just to try to bring people together. Because when you share the experience, and I've been really grateful this morning for the opportunity to walk through and see some American schools that you share the ideas, you see the similarities. That's the power and that's so important. Jon Eckert: No, and that's been our experience. Whether we're just in the states or internationally, there's so much good work going on. We just need to have ways of connecting human beings who are doing it, so it doesn't feel like it's another thing to do, but it's a better way to do what we're already doing. And so I feel like that's what UDL does. I feel like that's what IFIP is about. And that the most meaningful part of our time in Paris at UNESCO was not in the panels, it was in the conversations that happened over lunch, in the hallways. The panel may have sparked a conversation, but it's hey, what are you doing here? And what are you doing there? And I walked away with multiple connections of people that we'll continue to talk to because, again, there's so much good work going on. Yeah, go ahead. James: My memory of the... Because it was a very stale affair, wasn't it? And the bureaucratic approach, UNESCO, because you feel like you're a United Nations and lots of people talking were sat down for hours and hours, was when you lifted your hand and actually ask a few questions. That's inclusion, isn't it? Eric was saying that people who were leaving the room walked back in to listen because that was interesting and someone was asking them how they feel and bringing it back into reality. That's so important. But I also think inclusion, there is an interesting power dynamic with inclusion. A guy called Michael Young who's a professor of education at UCL, talks about the right for all children and young people to be taught powerful knowledge. What knowledge are we giving them? How are we empowering them? So I think inclusion is all about discovering your power within, if you like. That's so important so that they begin to see. And some of the teachers are saying this morning, kids know what they see, what they've experienced. And if you introduce new ways of dealing with anger or with pain, they don't have to fight. They don't have to resort to what they've necessarily seen. Then give them new strategies. That's empowering those children. Jon Eckert: Well, and Adam and Caroline who were taking you around, they're behavioral interventionists. And they are always busy because there are kids that are struggling with how to manage the feelings that they have. And if they don't have people giving them those strategies, how do they grow? And again, that's very human teaching, and Adam and Caroline are great models of that. James: They were wonderful. So good, and it was the light touch that impressed me. Because I've worked with, as I say, school improvement offices. And the trick is not to push people down. It's to make them think twice about what they've done or how they could ask a question better. And their observations of the displays on the walls and just the language teachers and teaching assistants use has a profound effect. I do believe that inclusion is about the students look at the way their teachers behave. It's nothing to do with this pedagogy or the post. It's about how did they respond to me? How did they respond to the other person in the class? What's important to them? How do they talk? That's the inclusion that you teach. Empowering them to make the similar choices when they're older. Jon Eckert: That's well said. So our lightning round, I usually ask four or five questions that have relatively short answers. So first one, what's the worst advice you've ever received as an educator? James: Oh, as an educator? Worst advice. Jon Eckert: Oh, it could be as a human being if you want. James: Well, when I was young, my dad had many qualities and taught me many good things. But one of the worst things he said to me was, "Don't use your money, use theirs." So he would borrow money. And that got me off to a terrible start in life. And I learned through my own experience that it was better to use... Well, I was always using my own money. Jon Eckert: Yes. Yes, okay. James: But I could use it better. But bless him because he's no longer with us. But that was one piece. Jon Eckert: No, that's a tough start. James: Yeah. Jon Eckert: Thank you for that. What's the best advice you've received? James: The best advice, I think, was to go back to university. Jon Eckert: Okay. James: I dropped out of school to get engaged, because that's what you do when you're 19. And I was going to get married, but it didn't happen. And then I went to do a summer job, which lasted for 10 years. Jon Eckert: That's a long summer. James: But my blessed teacher, Michael Brampton, who gave me a love for painting, history of art, he kept on pestering me go back to university. I went back as a mature student and loved it. I think people should start degrees when they're near in the thirties because you appreciate it so much more. Jon Eckert: Yes. James: So that advice he gave me led to such a change in my life. Jon Eckert: Yes. Well, and then you went on to get a degree in art history, philosophy, then a master's in computer science. So you went all in. James: Yes. And that took me into education. And the time I went in, there weren't many teachers that were doing anything with computers. Jon Eckert: So as you get to see all this around the world, what's the biggest challenge that you see schools facing that you work with? James: I think it's manpower. Jon Eckert: Okay. James: I think there's a real manpower issue and belief that school can make a difference. I think one of the things that we believe in IFIP is that positive change is possible. And sometimes it's shocking going to schools. And if you do make people see that the positive change is possible, it transforms them. So advocacy, shared vision. And one of your colleagues was saying this morning, just changing the mantra can make a profound difference. Jon Eckert: Yeah. So what makes you the most optimistic as you get to see all the schools all around the world? James: Yeah. Well, I've just come back from Stockholm in Sweden, and I was really, really impressed by the school there. It was one of the best schools in Stockholm. It was a school that had in their entrance hall, you'd expect it to be very austere and you don't want to see any bad stuff in your entrance hall. But they had a table tennis table set up and they had a piece of found art or hanging above. And it was the whole sense of the school's about children started there, about young people. But in Sweden, it's all about sustainability. Everyone is expected to clear up after themselves, be mindful of other people, respectful. Even in the hotel where I stayed, I had to sort my rubbish in my room. It's that approach that starts from not just in school, across the board. Jon Eckert: Yeah. James: So that impressed me. Jon Eckert: Yeah, that's a beautiful example. One of my favorite schools outside of Nashville, Tennessee, they don't have custodians that clean up the building. They have 20 minutes at the end of the day where the students do all of the cleaning, including the bathrooms. Which you start to take care of stuff better when you're the one who has to clean it up. And the peer pressure to take care of it shifts a little bit. So it's a great word. All right, one other thing. Oh, best book that you've read last. James: Can I give you two books? Jon Eckert: Absolutely. James: I mean, I've got into fiction in a big way recently. So I use Audible, the app. Jon Eckert: Oh, yes. James: And I've been working through all kinds of classics that I never read properly. Just reread The Hobbit and Tom Sawyer. But I've gone through... The Name of the Rose stuck with me recently. I so enjoyed reading it. And I've just got into Robert Harris. He's written Conclave, which has just come out as a feature film. And a series of books called Imperium about Cicero and Oratory and how the Roman Empire was lost. But they aren't the books. Jon Eckert: I love that. Go ahead. James: But the two books, one is by an English specialist called Mary Myatt. And one of the really practical books that she wrote was The Curriculum: Gallimaufry to coherence. Gallimaufry is a word, I'm not sure if it's Gaelic, but it means a mess. So going from a mess to coherence. And that book is all about how it's important that children struggle. That learning only happens. We try to protect kids all the time that way. No, they should struggle. You imagine if everything's easy. And then she says this, if everything's easy, it's hard to learn. There's nothing to hold onto. There's no scratch marks. You need some of that. So Mary Myatt, that's a brilliant book. The other book is by Duncan Green called How Change Happens. And that's all about this idea of power. And he talks about power within, that's your self-confidence power with when you've got solidarity with people. Power to change things and then power over people. But it strikes me that as he shows in his book, where you've got instances where you've got the 'I Can' campaign in South Asia, all about women who were being violently treated by men, reclaiming their self-worth. It's like invisible power. Where does it come from? The change. You can't see any difference, but inside they've changed dramatically to stand up collectively against something. And that's what we need to do with students. Build that self-power inside. Jon Eckert: Great recommendations. And we talk a lot about struggling well and where that fuel comes from. And so, love that book by Mary Myatt. I'll have to get the spelling of that from you when we get off. My also favorite thing about that is I asked for one book recommendation and I wrote down at least seven. So, well done James. All right, well hey. We really appreciate you coming over. We look forward to potentially doing a convening where we get to bring great people together who want to work on serving each kid well in this way that benefits all of us. So hopefully that will happen sometime in the coming year. But really grateful for your partnership and a chance to go visit schools and have you on the podcast. James: Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Thank you.

Friends of the Rosary, Today, the Catholic Church celebrates the Memorial of St. John Bosco (1815-1888), the Italian priest who founded the Society of St. Francis de Sales (Salesians) and the Daughters of Mary Auxiliatrix, Help of Christians. He was the great apostle of youth, an enlightened educator, leader, and innovator centered on persuasion, authentic religiosity, and love for young people. Don Bosco formulated a system of education based on “reason, religion, and kindness.” Known also as the new St. Vincent de Paul, John Paul II named him “teacher and father to the young.” Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary! + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York • January 31, 2025, Today's Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET Enhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

1) Los procesos: Algo que te tiene que quedar en claro, y lo vemos muy bien en el evangelio de hoy, es que la vida es un proceso. Por ende, vos no cambias de un día para el otro, no pasas de una cosa a otra de un día para el otro. Las cosas de tu vida son como un camino y un proceso con el que vas luchando día a día. Por ejemplo, una persona adicta tiene que trabajar día a día. Pero esto es en todos los ámbitos de tu vida. Incluso en tu vida de oración y tu espiritualidad, es de a poco y despacio. Hay veces que la ansiedad nos gana y queremos lograrlo todo ya. Esa será tu mayor lucha, porque irás viviendo metas dentro de este proceso, para lograr ese objetivo. Acordate que el objetivo es lo final y las metas son los procesos que te vas poniendo. Tu vida es un proceso, las cosas no cambian de golpe, asumilo. Las personas tampoco cambian de golpe. Si te dijo que quiere cambiar, acompáñalo, ayúdala.. pero recordá que es un proceso y no todo se logra de golpe. 2) Lo pequeño: Es bueno que si querés cambiar comiences con lo pequeño, pequeñas acciones, actitudes, que llevan a hacer luego mucho. Aprender a valorar y respetar el tiempo es fundamental. Tus pequeños logros con el tiempo se van a convertir en grandes batallas logradas. Me viene el ejemplo del que hace dieta: el que hoy no hayas comido chocolate logrará en unos días tener el resultado de haber bajado unos gramos, y dentro de unos días más esos gramos darán el resultado de un kilo o unos kilos bajados. Pero comenzó con algo concreto y pequeño, como “privarse de comer algo tan simple pero también tan complicado (para los que nos gusta) como el chocolate”. Por eso, si querés iniciar cambios en tu vida, comienza con pequeñeces. 3) Don Bosco: En él vemos en primer lugar un proceso interno con “su carácter”, pues hasta en algún momento se fue a las manos con alguien… Cómo será que trabajará este tema con su director espiritual, y hasta pone el nombre “salesianos” a su congregación en encomienda a San Francisco de Sales (ya que es el patrono del buen carácter). ¿Ves? Las cosas no se logran de un día para el otro. El otro proceso es externo que tiene Don Bosco comenzó con algo tan pequeño como su oratorio. Que luego vemos hoy que los salesianos se extendieron por todo el mundo y hasta Dios le encomendó a Don Bosco, en un sueño, la Patagonia (Argentina). Porque la vida, para llegar a la felicidad, es un proceso, pero se inicia teniendo en claro qué es lo que quiero y la voluntad de Dioa. Se comienza con poco y se llega a mucho, pero despacio, porque la vida no es para arrebatados, sino para valientes que trabajan día a día por lo que quieren, con paciencia y esforzándose por tener buen carácter. Algo bueno está por venir.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint John Bosco, Priest Lectionary: 321The Saint of the day is Saint John BoscoSaint John Bosco's Story John Bosco's theory of education could well be used in today's schools. It was a preventive system, rejecting corporal punishment and placing students in surroundings removed from the likelihood of committing sin. He advocated frequent reception of the sacraments of Penance and Holy Communion. He combined catechetical training and fatherly guidance, seeking to unite the spiritual life with one's work, study and play. Encouraged during his youth in Turin to become a priest so he could work with young boys, John was ordained in 1841. His service to young people started when he met a poor orphan in Turin, and instructed him in preparation for receiving Holy Communion. He then gathered young apprentices and taught them catechism. After serving as chaplain in a hospice for working girls, Don Bosco opened the Oratory of St. Francis de Sales for boys. Several wealthy and powerful patrons contributed money, enabling him to provide two workshops for the boys, shoemaking and tailoring. By 1856, the institution had grown to 150 boys and had added a printing press for publication of religious and catechetical pamphlets. John's interest in vocational education and publishing justify him as patron of young apprentices and Catholic publishers. John's preaching fame spread and by 1850 he had trained his own helpers because of difficulties in retaining young priests. In 1854, he and his followers informally banded together, inspired by Saint Francis de Sales. With Pope Pius IX's encouragement, John gathered 17 men and founded the Salesians in 1859. Their activity concentrated on education and mission work. Later, he organized a group of Salesian Sisters to assist girls. Reflection John Bosco educated the whole person—body and soul united. He believed that Christ's love and our faith in that love should pervade everything we do—work, study, play. For John Bosco, being a Christian was a full-time effort, not a once-a-week, Mass-on-Sunday experience. It is searching and finding God and Jesus in everything we do, letting their love lead us. Yet, because John realized the importance of job-training and the self-worth and pride that come with talent and ability, he trained his students in the trade crafts, too.

Friday of the Third Week in Ordinary Time Memorial of St. John Bosco, 1815-1888; ordained in 1841, and began serving young people; after serving as chaplain in a hospice for working girls, Don Bosco opened the Oratory of St. Francis de Sales for boys; by 1856, the institution had grown to 150 boys and had added a printing press for publication of religious and catechetical pamphlets; with the encouragement of Pope Pius IX, John gathered 17 men and formed the Salesians Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 1/31/25 Gospel: Mark 4:26-34

1 At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Who thinkest thou is the greater in the kingdom of heaven?In illa hora accesserunt discipuli ad Jesum, dicentes : Quis, putas, major est in regno caelorum?  2 And Jesus calling unto him a little child, set him in the midst of them,Et advocans Jesus parvulum, statuit eum in medio eorum,  3 And said: Amen I say to you, unless you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.et dixit : Amen dico vobis, nisi conversi fueritis, et efficiamini sicut parvuli, non intrabitis in regnum caelorum.  4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of heaven.Quicumque ergo humiliaverit se sicut parvulus iste, hic est major in regno caelorum.  5 And he that shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me.Et qui susceperit unum parvulum talem in nomine meo, me suscipit : Don Bosco founded the Salesian Fathers and the Order of our Lady, Help of Christians, for the education of poor boys and girls. He died A.D. 1888.

Ref.: P. Elmar Busse ISch, Institut der Schönstatt-Patres, Dernbach (Westerwald) (Bistum Limburg) "Fröhlich sein, Gutes tun und die Spatzen pfeifen lassen!" Die heitere Lebensweisheit stammt von dem begnadeten Jugendseelsorger Don Giovanni Bosco, der seinerzeit Klein und Groß anzog wie ein Magnet. Durch Sport, Spiele und Bildungsangebote gelang es Don Bosco, den verwahrlosten Jugendlichen im Norditalien des 19. Jahrhunderts eine Zukunftsperspektive zu eröffnen und sie für Gott zu begeistern. An seinem Gedenktag spricht in der Lebenshilfe der Familienseelsorger P. Elmar Busse von der Schönstatt-Bewegung darüber, wie das Erziehungsmodell Don Boscos auch in unseren Familien umgesetzt werden kann. Giovanni Melchiorre Bosco (* 16. August 1815 in Becchi, 31. Januar 1888 in Turin) war Priester, Jugendseelsorger und Ordensgründer. Er wurde 1929 selig- und 1934 heiliggesprochen und gilt als Patron der Jugend. Der von ihm gegründete Orden, die Salesianer Don Boscos, hatte schon zu seinen Lebzeiten 773 Ordensmänner und 276 Novizen. Heute gehören die Salesianer zu den größten Orden weltweit. Ebenfalls zur Don-Bosco-Familie gehören die Don-Bosco-Schwestern und die Salesianischen Mitarbeiter Don Boscos.

Esta reflexión destaca la alegría cristiana como un fruto de la confianza en Dios, inspirada en el ejemplo de San Juan Bosco. A través de su vida, Don Bosco mostró que la santidad se vive con gozo y servicio, especialmente hacia los jóvenes. Se resalta su pedagogía del amor, basada en la cercanía y la bondad, y se invita a imitar su entrega, viendo en los más vulnerables el rostro de Cristo. Con citas bíblicas, se enfatiza la humildad, la esperanza y el compromiso de ser testigos auténticos del Evangelio, haciendo de nuestro servicio un canto de alabanza a Dios. - Abba Jimmy (Theoloscience)

"Fröhlich sein, Gutes tun und die Spatzen pfeifen lassen" ist ein bekanntes Wort vom heutigen Heiligen und es klingt freundlich und easy und locker und leicht. Aber das war es nicht wirklich. Bis dahin war es ein sehr weiter Weg. Johannes Bosco wächst in sehr ärmlichen Verhältnissen auf. Seinen Vater verliert er früh, aber seine Mutter liebt ihn und seine Brüder sehr und gibt ihm ein grenzenloses Vertrauen in Gott mit auf den Weg. Johannes ist ein fröhlicher Mensch, der die zauberhafte Gabe hat, auf Menschen zugehen zu können, sie wunderbar zu unterhalten und leicht und locker auch von Gottes Liebe zu erzählen. Er wird Priester und erlebt in Turin das harte Leben der Jugendlichen, die aus den Dörfern in die Städte ziehen, um Arbeit zu finden, aber unversorgt und überfordert oft im Gefängnis landen. Dort findet Don Bosco seine Lebensaufgabe."Erziehung ist eine Sache des Herzens", sagt er und hat mit seiner Pädagogik einen ganz neuen Weg eingeschlagen: Er hat die Jugendlichen gefördert, ihnen zugehört, sie begleitet. Ihm ging es dabei immer um eine ganzheitliche Erziehung. Er will den Jugendlichen immer auf Augenhöhe begegnen. Sein Erziehungsstil, der auf Liebe, Einsicht, Glaube und Prävention setzte, statt auf harte Strafen, war revolutionär für die damalige Zeit. Und es gibt so viel zu tun, dass er nach Gleichgesinnten sucht, die ihm helfen, den vielen tausend Jugendlichen gerecht zu werden, ihnen Heimat, Geborgenheit und Ausbildung zu verschaffen. Es entstehen die großen Frauen- und Männergemeinschaften der salesianischen Familie, die bis heute in über 133 Ländern im Dienst von Kindern und Jugendlichen stehen, um Zukunftsperspektiven zu schaffen."Fröhlich sein, Gutes tun und die Spatzen pfeifen lassen" muss die Grundhaltung des Herzens sein, wenn man bis an die Ränder gehen will, Jugendliche aus den Gefängnissen und den Spiralen der Gewalt holen will und sich sicher ist, dass selbst im noch so rauen Burschen ein guter Kern steckt. "Ich will euch hier und ewig glücklich sehen." - Von diesem Wunsch war das ganze Leben Don Boscos bestimmt. Wie kein anderer hat er mit seinem ganzen Lebenseinsatz junge Menschen begleitet. Jeder einzelne junge Mensch war für ihn wichtig, weil er wusste und fest glaubte, dass Gott jeden Menschen liebt.

Zitate von Don Bosco 1. „Das Beste, was man auf der Welt tun kann, ist Gutes tun, fröhlich sein und die Spatzen pfeifen lassen.“ 2. „Die kleinen Kreuze, die einer auf Erden getragen hat, werden eine Ehrenkrone im Himmel bilden.“ 3. „Seid immer um das besorgt, was der Herr von euch sagen wird, nicht um das, was die Menschen Gutes oder Schlechtes von euch sagen werden!“ Pfr. Thomas Gehlfuß

Delivered by Father Peter Tukan, SDB from Salesian Don Bosco Gerak in the Diocese of Labuan Bajo, Indonesia. Hebrews 10: 32-39; Rs psalm 37: 3-4.5-6.23-24.39-40; Mark 4: 26-34 STEADFAST IN HOPE   Our meditation on this day has the theme: Steadfast in Hope.  Every January 31, the Salesian Society of Don Bosco (SDB), the Salesian Family, and many others who live the spirit of Saint John Bosco celebrate it as a feast, which is the day of the death of the saint from Turin, Northern Italy. He was a diocesan priest of the Archdiocese of Turin, endowed with a special charism by the Holy Spirit, to work for the education of the most abandoned and poor young people.   He founded a men's consecrated life society named SDB (Salesian of Don Bosco), and a women's society named FMA (Daughters of Mary Help of Christians). He also founded a lay collaborator called the Salesian Cooperator. He followed the spiritual intuition and teaching of Saint Francis of Sales, Bishop of Geneva (Switzerland) who lived more than 200 years before Don Bosco, so the institutes and large families he founded are called the Salesians. The education system for young people popularized by Don Bosco, recognized by the Church and used as an effective Catholic education system, is called the preventive system.   Early in his work for the good and salvation of adolescents and youth of the city of Turin, Don Bosco for the fist time found their lives and circumstances to be very poor. They were the same as garbage thrown away and trampled or destroyed. Family and community life with the condition of the young generation like this is clearly included in the category of humanitarian emergency. Poverty, ignorance, crime, illness, harassment and forced labor in factories or industries, were common situations of the young generation at that time. It seems that the loss of hope for the Church and society was very real.   But Don Bosco was steadfast in his faith and humanitarian initiative underpinned by a change mentality for the better. Don Bosco was an original product of the enlightenment after the medieval period of the world. He wanted changes and new methods in education. He wanted his steadfastness of faith and humanitarian initiative to bring in society and the Church a hope of newness. It should start with the education of the younger generation, which in turn will create change and spread it around the world.   The Letter to the Hebrews of today's reading reinforces us that, like Don Bosco, we have the responsibility to hold fast to hope, which is manifested by mutual concern and support in love among us. The light and strength that we have must be shareable. What is with us and what is shared will be added more and more by God. Let us pray. In the name of the Father... O Lord Jesus, make us bearers and spreaders of hope to our neighbors. Our Father who art in heaven... In the name of the Father...

Dibawakan oleh Yen Asmat dan Chaca Laiskodat dari Paroki Santo Vitalis Cewonikit Ruteng di Keuskupan Ruteng, Indonesia. Ibrani 10: 32-39; Mazmur tg 37: 3-4.5-6.23-24.39-40; Markus 4: 26-34 BERTEGUH DALAM PENGHARAPAN   Renungan kita pada hari ini bertema: Berteguh Dalam Pengharapan.  Setiap tanggal 31 Januari, Serikat Salesian Don Bosco, Keluarga Salesian, dan banyak pihak yang menjalani semangat hidup Santo Yohanes Bosco merayakannya sebagai pesta, yaitu hari kenangan wafatnya orang kudus asal Turin, Italia Utara itu. Ia seorang imam diosesan Keuskupan Agung Turin, yang dikaruniai karisma khusus oleh Roh Kudus, untuk bekerja bagi pendidikan orang-orang muda yang terlantar dan termiskin.   Ia mendirikan Serikat hidup bakti pria yang dinamakan SDB, dan wanita yang dinamakan FMA (Puteri-Puteri Maria Penolong Umat Kristiani). Ia juga mendirikan kolaborator awam yang dinamakan Kooperator Salesian. Ia mengikuti semangat kerohanian dan ajaran Santo Fransiskus dari Sales, Uskup di Jeneva (Swiss) yang hidup 200 lebih tahun sebelum Don Bosco, maka tarekat-tarekat dan Keluarga besar yang didirikannya dinamakan Salesian. Sistem pendidikan orang-orang muda yang dipopulerkan Don Bosco, diakui oleh Gereja dan dimanfaatkan sebagai sistem pendidikan Katolik yang efektif, namanya sistem preventif atau sistem pencegahan.   Di awal kerjanya bagi kebaikan dan keselamatan para remaja dan orang-orang muda, Don Bosco menemukan hidup dan keadaan mereka sangat memprihatinkan. Mereka sama dengan sampah yang dibuang dan diinjak-injak atau dihancurkan. Kehidupan keluarga dan masyarakat dengan kondisi generasi muda seperti ini, jelas masuk dalam kategori darurat kemanusiaan. Kemiskinan, kebodohan, kejahatan, sakit, pelecehan dan pemaksaan kerja di pabrik atau industri, merupakan situasi umum generasi muda saat itu. Nampaknya kehilangan harapan bagi Gereja dan masyarakat sangat nyata.   Tetapi Don Bosco berteguh dalam iman dan prakarsa kemanusiaannya yang didukung oleh sebuah mentalitas perubahan ke arah yang lebih cerah. Don Bosco adalah produk asli zaman pencerahan setelah abad pertengahan dunia. Ia ingin perubahan dan metode baru dalam pendidikan. Ia ingin supaya keteguhan iman dan prakarsa kemanusiaannya dapat menghadirkan di dalam masyarakat dan Gereja sebuah harapan akan kebaruan. Ia harus mulai dengan pendidikan generasi muda, yang pada gilirannya akan menciptakan perubahan dan menyebarkannya ke seluruh dunia.   Surat kepada orang Ibrani menguatkan kita bahwa, seperti Don Bosco, kita memiliki tanggung jawab untuk berpegang teguh pada pengharapan, yang diwujudkan dengan saling memperhatikan dan mendukung dalam cinta kasih di antara kita. Terang dan kekuatan yang ada pada kita harus dapat dibagikan. Yang ada pada kita dan yang dibagikan akan semakin ditambahkan oleh Tuhan. Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa ... Ya Tuhan Yesus, jadikanlah kami sebagai pembawa dan penyebar harapan kepada sesama kami. Bapa kami yang ada di surga... Dalam nama Bapa ...

Education intégrale 2025-01-25 La pédagogie de Don Bosco et la méthode préventive by Radio Maria France

1) La alegría física: Puede ser externa o interna. La externa se refiere al humor, por ejemplo, un buen chiste que te hace pasar un buen momento. Mientras que la interna es un gozo que toca el corazón, que te mueve. Como esa mamá que acaba de tener a su hijo o su hija en brazos o ese papá que muestra a su bebé a todo el mundo. Son esas alegrías que te inflaman el pecho, te llenan de orgullo y te animan a llevar el día con mucha fuerza. Esta alegría propiamente física te genera cosas, que te dan ganas de hacer más cosas, que te hacen poner una actitud distinta y andar con una sonrisa. 2) Alegría psíquica: El tener la capacidad de ver lo positivo del día y de la vida. Aprender a ver que en tu vida hay cosas positivas, incluso en tanto mal. Es ponerle actitud a la vida y saber que en todo siempre hay algo bueno. No todo es malo. Cuando logras descubrir eso, las balas de la tristeza no entran en tu corazón. No veas que todo es feo. Seguro que ayer algo bueno tuviste, y antes de ayer también, y antes de antes de ayer también. En fin… aprende a mirar la parte del vaso lleno y no solo la parte del vaso vacío. 3) Alegría espiritual: Es aquella alegría que solo se logra en ese encuentro con Jesús. Eso que te hace saltar de gozo como a Isabel frente a María. El saberte tocado y tomado por Dios te lleva a Él y te llena tanto de Él que te hace cometer locuras de amor, como a Francisco de Asís o a Teresa de Calcuta o al mismo Don Bosco. El lograr eso de tener una conexión con Dios de una manera total (que reconozco que es difícil, no es fácil), es un proceso, es un camino. Pero, cuando lo logras, esa presencia de Dios te va a llevar a mantener siempre ese espíritu de alegría. Hoy vos sos una alegría para mucha gente, incluso para mí. ¡Gracias! Trata de proponerte sacarle una sonrisa a alguien. Algo bueno está por venir. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/misioneros-digitales-catlicos/support

C dans l'air du 3 décembre - Barnier sur le départ... et maintenant on fait quoi ?Evoqué depuis des semaines, le scénario d'une chute du gouvernement se précise depuis que le Premier ministre a actionné lundi l'article 49.3 de la Constitution, engageant la responsabilité de son gouvernement sur le projet de loi de la Sécurité sociale. Dans la foulée, le Nouveau Front populaire et le Rassemblement national ont déposé une motion de censure. Elles seront examinées à partir de ce mercredi 16 heures à l'Assemblée nationale. En attendant, l'entourage du Premier ministre accuse "la garde rapprochée de Marine Le Pen" d'avoir "refusé à trois reprises une rencontre à Matignon". Il est "étonnant de voir le RN dire qu'ils ont été reçus trop tardivement", a fustigé l'entourage de Michel Barnier auprès de médias, dont franceinfo, mardi matin alors qu'au sein du gouvernement le ministre de l'Intérieur a appelé Marine Le Pen " à la responsabilité". "On risque un chaos, on risque la crise financière (...) On a une partie de la classe politique qui joue à la roulette russe", a notamment affirmé Bruno Retailleau. Le Premier ministre a annoncé qu'il interviendrait ce mardi lors du 20 heures de TF1 et de France 2.Pour faire chuter le gouvernement, 288 députés devront voter la censure. Mercredi, la motion de la gauche sera discutée en premier. Sauf rebondissements de dernières minutes, elle devrait être adoptée, le RN ayant dit qu'il la voterait. Le parti de Marine Le Pen, malgré quelques concessions de l'exécutif, votera la censure avec l'ambition de mettre au tapis le gouvernement Barnier. Mais pour la suite c'est le grand flou, sur les finances, sur la succession à Matignon et sur l'avenir du quinquennat Macron. Une situation scrutée par les marchés et qui inquiète les acteurs économiques, alors que sur le front de l'économie les plans sociaux se multiplient. Auchan, Michelin, Valeo, Vencorex, Don Bosco, Saunier Duval… … Annoncée depuis plusieurs mois, la vague de défaillances d'entreprises et des licenciements est bel et bien là. Le Conseil national des administrateurs judiciaires et des mandataires judiciaires indique que "le volume des défaillances devrait probablement atteindre à la fin de l'année 2024, le seuil des 65 000 entreprises ". Plus de 160 000 emplois seraient touchés à court et moyen terme par ces défaillances. Un chiffre spectaculaire, mais qui a augmenté moins vite que le nombre de faillites, en hausse de 20 % par rapport à 2023 dont de nombreuses PME. Dans ce contexte, la secrétaire générale de la CGT, Sophie Binet, a alerté, fin novembre sur une "accélération très forte de la dégradation de la situation" en matière de plans sociaux, et a appelé à des mobilisations devant usines et préfectures le 12 décembre prochain. D'ici là, ce jeudi, sera organisée une journée nationale de grève dans la fonction publique pour faire barrage au 1,2 milliard d'euros d'économies, prévues dans l'administration par le gouvernement pour le budget 2025.Quels sont les scénarios sur la table ? Que va faire Emmanuel Macron alors que des appels à sa démission sont d'ores et déjà lancés ? A quoi faut-il s'attendre en matière économique et sociale ? Enfin quels regards portent les Français sur l'état de la société et la situation politique actuelle ? Pour la douzième année consécutive, l'Ipsos vient de publier l'enquête Fractures françaises, pour le Monde, le Cevipof, la Fondation Jean-Jaurès et l'Institut Montaigne. Après une année politique très mouvementée, cette grande étude témoigne d'une défiance toujours plus forte des Français envers la classe politique dans un climat social qui demeure difficile. Ainsi 55 % des Français déclarent rencontrer des difficultés à subvenir aux dépenses courantes de leur foyer. Sans surprise la préoccupation pour le pouvoir d'achat reste de loin la plus citée par les Français (38%).

C dans l'air du 29 novembre - Budget : crise de nerfs... et crise économique ?Alors que la bataille parlementaire se poursuit à l'Assemblée et que la menace d'une censure du gouvernement Barnier se rapproche, sur le front économique les plans sociaux s'enchaînent. Auchan, Michelin, Valeo, Vencorex, Don Bosco, Saunier Duval… … Annoncée depuis plusieurs mois, la vague de défaillances d'entreprises et des licenciements est bel et bien là. Le Conseil national des administrateurs judiciaires et des mandataires judiciaires indique que "le volume des défaillances devrait probablement atteindre à la fin de l'année 2024, le seuil des 65 000 entreprises ce qui représente un pic significatif". Plus de 160 000 emplois seraient touchés à court et moyen terme par ces défaillances, en particulier dans les secteurs de l'industrie et du logement. Un chiffre spectaculaire, mais qui a augmenté moins vite que le nombre de faillites, en hausse de 20 % par rapport à 2023 et qui surpasse les pics de 2012, lié à la crise de la dette dans la zone euro, ou de 2009, provoqué par celle des subprimes.Et ce ne serait que le début. Selon Marc Ferracci, ministre délégué chargé de l'Industrie, il faut s'attendre à "d'autres fermetures d'usines" dans les prochains mois et des "milliers d'emplois" seront probablement détruits "dans des filières qui sont dans des situations préoccupantes". "La chimie, la filière automobile, en particulier les équipementiers, la métallurgie... sont des filières soumises à une très forte concurrence internationale", notamment chinoise et américaine, a souligné le ministre début novembre alors que Donald Trump a promis à son retour à la Maison-Blanche d'augmenter les droits de douane et de relancer la guerre commerciale.La secrétaire générale de la CGT, Sophie Binet, alerte, elle aussi, sur une "accélération très forte de la dégradation de la situation" en matière de plans sociaux, dans l'industrie principalement, mais également d'autres secteurs, dans une interview aux Echos, publiée mercredi 27 novembre. Selon elle, "près de 250 plans de licenciements" sont "en préparation, concernant entre 170 000 et 200 000 emplois". La cheffe de la centrale syndicale qui tire également à boulets rouges sur la politique de l'offre menée depuis le premier quinquennat d'Emmanuel Macron, "un naufrage politique", selon elle, prône pour la mise en œuvre de plusieurs mesures d'urgence, comme "un retour aux prix régulés" de l'énergie pour l'industrie, la mise en place par l'Europe de barrières douanières "plus protectrices" mais aussi "un renforcement de la loi Florange", qui oblige un employeur à chercher un repreneur en cas de projet de fermeture, et son élargissement aux PME de 50 salariés ou plus. Sophie Binet a appelé "les salariés à se mettre en grève et occuper leurs usines pour empêcher les licenciements", ainsi qu'à une journée de mobilisations devant usines et préfectures le 12 décembre prochain.Alors quelle est la situation économique de la France ? Pourquoi cette explosion des faillites et des plans sociaux ? Effet rebond post-Covid ou crise durable ? Que se passe-t-il dans le secteur du logement ? Pourquoi trouver un logement locatif est-il devenu de plus en plus dur ? Enfin face à une Amérique de plus en plus protectionniste, quelle stratégie européenne ?

This week, two segments plus Sean Swain Don Bosco Park Defense in Bologna First up, an interview submitted by audio comrades in Italy about the struggle against the cementization of the city of Bologna and the defense of Don Bosco park from the expansion of a university, highways… the whole urban landscape without the input of the residents so the city can move a school rather than renovate it. This struggle, including the occupation and defense of the park, represents an innovation in urban struggles in Italy which consciously takes inspiration from the struggle to Stop Cop City in so-called Atlanta and the activities of the park defenders has forced the left-leaning municipal government and mayor to temporarily suspend the cutting of trees.

Full Text of ReadingsFourth Sunday of Lent Lectionary: 31, 32The Saint of the day is Saint Dominic SavioSaint Dominic Savio's Story So many holy persons seem to die young. Among them was Dominic Savio, the patron of choirboys. Born into a peasant family at Riva, Italy, young Dominic joined Saint John Bosco as a student at the Oratory in Turin at the age of 12. He impressed Don Bosco with his desire to be a priest and to help him in his work with neglected boys. A peacemaker and an organizer, young Dominic founded a group he called the Company of the Immaculate Conception which, besides being devotional, aided John Bosco with the boys and with manual work. All the members save one, Dominic, would, in 1859, join Don Bosco in the beginnings of his Salesian congregation. By that time, Dominic had been called home to heaven. As a youth, Dominic spent hours rapt in prayer. His raptures he called “my distractions.” Even in play, he said that at times, “It seems heaven is opening just above me. I am afraid I may say or do something that will make the other boys laugh.” Dominic would say, “I can't do big things. But I want all I do, even the smallest thing, to be for the greater glory of God.” Dominic's health, always frail, led to lung problems and he was sent home to recuperate. As was the custom of the day, he was bled in the thought that this would help, but it only worsened his condition. He died on March 9, 1857, after receiving the Last Sacraments. Saint John Bosco himself wrote the account of his life. Some thought that Dominic was too young to be considered a saint. Saint Pius X declared that just the opposite was true, and went ahead with his cause. Dominic was canonized in 1954. His liturgical feast is celebrated on March 9. Reflection Like many a youngster, Dominic was painfully aware that he was different from his peers. He tried to keep his piety from his friends lest he have to endure their laughter. Even after his death, his youth marked him as a misfit among the saints and some argued that he was too young to be canonized. Pope Pius X wisely disagreed. For no one is too young—or too old or too anything else—to achieve the holiness to which we all are called.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint John Bosco, Priest Lectionary: 325The Saint of the day is Saint John BoscoSaint John Bosco's Story John Bosco's theory of education could well be used in today's schools. It was a preventive system, rejecting corporal punishment and placing students in surroundings removed from the likelihood of committing sin. He advocated frequent reception of the sacraments of Penance and Holy Communion. He combined catechetical training and fatherly guidance, seeking to unite the spiritual life with one's work, study and play. Encouraged during his youth in Turin to become a priest so he could work with young boys, John was ordained in 1841. His service to young people started when he met a poor orphan in Turin, and instructed him in preparation for receiving Holy Communion. He then gathered young apprentices and taught them catechism. After serving as chaplain in a hospice for working girls, Don Bosco opened the Oratory of St. Francis de Sales for boys. Several wealthy and powerful patrons contributed money, enabling him to provide two workshops for the boys, shoemaking and tailoring. By 1856, the institution had grown to 150 boys and had added a printing press for publication of religious and catechetical pamphlets. John's interest in vocational education and publishing justify him as patron of young apprentices and Catholic publishers. John's preaching fame spread and by 1850 he had trained his own helpers because of difficulties in retaining young priests. In 1854, he and his followers informally banded together, inspired by Saint Francis de Sales. With Pope Pius IX's encouragement, John gathered 17 men and founded the Salesians in 1859. Their activity concentrated on education and mission work. Later, he organized a group of Salesian Sisters to assist girls. Reflection John Bosco educated the whole person—body and soul united. He believed that Christ's love and our faith in that love should pervade everything we do—work, study, play. For John Bosco, being a Christian was a full-time effort, not a once-a-week, Mass-on-Sunday experience. It is searching and finding God and Jesus in everything we do, letting their love lead us. Yet, because John realized the importance of job-training and the self-worth and pride that come with talent and ability, he trained his students in the trade crafts, too.
