'+Description+': The 19th General Chapter had already lamented that there was "little or no Salesian movement' for lay missionaries". By the time the Constitutions were renewed, C. 5 contained reference to a "vast movement of persons", but concept of a Salesian Movement (in English at least, given more prominence by use of the capital S and M) was not further clarified until the 24th General Chapter. Then in 1997 in his letter recognising 25 years of the Salesian family as formally structured, indicated that the Salesian Movement cam about because of the more formalised understanding of the Salesian Youth Movement. As he puts in that letter: "It should be emphasized that the urgency of the Movement derives from the mission to the young and the poor. The Salesian community is well aware that the commitment to be "missionaries of the young" cannot be realized without a vast movement of persons working together with shared responsibility. From this requirement stems the need for the educative and pastoral community in all Salesian works. From the same requirement follows the effort to gather together in the neighbourhood a network of collaborators, friends and sympathizers willing to carry out "good works". Working alone carries with it the risk not only of isolation but also of inefficacy. We conclude therefore with the necessity of extending and giving competence to the Salesian Movement, and for this an animation is indispensable that is suited to its nature. From this standpoint the youth component is already organized. As regards adults, the animation belongs to all the Salesian Family and in particular to the central groups".

'+Context (examples of use)+': "4. Promote the Salesian Movement: Don Bosco involved many people in his educational and missionary ideas. At every level he asked that attention be paid to his youngsters and to needy people..." (''Charter of Salesian Identity'' Art 21.)

(:zapend:) (:zapform key=Type:) '''Term type''' ('EntryTerm' ''if no other applies)'' (1) (2) [Initialisms like AGC are regarded as acronyms; a term like 'Bro.' is an abbreviation; an example of short form instead would be the main part of a very long book title (most of DB's book titles! 'Giovane Provveduto' is a short form). A loan term is not translated whereas a calque is. A blend is where two (or more) morphemes or 'word' parts have been combined to form a single term, as in the case of 'austraLasia'. Choose variant when there exists at least one other common form of the term. ] (:zapend:)
