WORD AND LIFE - A Theological Symposium

MAKATI (Manila): 22nd July 2008 -- In its Silver Jubilee Year, Don Bosco Center of Studies held "WORD AND LIFE, a theological symposium" on the 21st of July 2008 at the St. John Bosco Parish Church, Makati Manila. The symposium took up the theme of the coming Rome Synod: The Word of God in the Life and Mission of the Church.
    Four noted experts on the Bible brought to life the significant influence of the Word of God on the life of God's people from the time of Moses in the Old Testament through the New Testament times of St. Paul's early communities until our very day in the Philippine scene in the Church of the Poor. Over 700 participants, clergy, seminarians, religious and laity, from the different congregations and dioceses attended the day-long symposium.
    Bishop Broderick Pabillo SSl DD, Auxiliary Bishop of Manila and Delegate of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines to the Synod, presented the 'Themes and Proceedings of the Synod of Rome 2008' in his keynote address. 
    Fr. Jean Louis Ska SJ SSD, noted biblical scholar and expert in the Pentateuch and professor of Old Testament exegesis at the Pontificio Istituto Biblico in Rome, presented 'The Role of the Torah in the Covenated Community of Israel'.
    Fr. Gil Alinsanga SSP SSL, former Philippine Provincial Superior of the St. Paul Fathers and Brothers and professor of New Testament studies in different theological schools in Manila developed 'St. Paul's Proclamation of the Word to the early Christian communities'.
    Sr. Miriam Alejandrino OSB SSL SThD, former Mother General of the Benedictine Sisters of the Eucharistic King, professor of Sacred Scriptures in various theological centers in the Philippines presented her proposals in 'Breaking the Word in the Church of the Poor'.
______________
The Don Bosco Center of Studies  (www.dbcs.ph) stands on a three hectare land in Paranaque City, a suburb of Manila. It was originally established in 1972 as a residence for Salesian candidates to the priesthood who were then studying theology at the Ecclesiastical Faculties of the Royal and Pontifical University of Santo Tomas in Manila.
    In June 1983, the Center started its own Theology School. With the decree of the Sacred Congregation for Catholic education(no. 1557/86/4), it was granted affiliation to the Faculty of Theology of the Salesian Potifical University in Rome, enabling it to grant the ecclesiastical degree of Bachelor in Theology (BTh).
    In 1996, the Commission of Higher Education granted the government recognition to Masters Graduate courses in Theology (MATh) and Religious Studies (MRS). The Center offers diploma courses in Spirituality, Religious Studies, Catechetics and Youth Ministry as well as other updating courses in Pastoral Ministry and Consecrated Life.
