Memorias ba Oratorio:  Memoirs of the Oratory available in Tetum

DILI: 11th February 2006 --  The translation of the Memoirs of the Oratory into Tetum has been a labour of great love for Fr Rolando Fernandez, who already has a name for important translations into Tetum such as the New Testament, published in 2000.  He has done a provisional translation of MO which he would now like Timorese around the world to look through and comment on.  Since the text is still in simple Word format, it will be easy enough for him to make necessary changes, while in the meantime he seeks both funding and suitable arrangements for publication.
In the meantime the text is available, in Word format, from Bosconet.  There is a link under the 'special' section on the homepage (well down on the right hand side) which will take interested readers to the 'useful Salesian texts' page and from there you can access both the English and now the Tetum version of MO. Alternatively you could simply search from the homepage on Memorias.
Bosconet is particularly happy to host texts of this kind in the languages of the region, especially in situations of diaspora where members of a language other than English have less access to Salesian material in their own language.  This could be particularly born in mind for the Chinese and Vietnamese diaspora.  In recent discussions amongst the provincials of the region, it was noted that Chinese with Salesian connections are to be found in very large numbers throughout the region in Salesian parishes and other works.
