SALESIAN GENERALATE

Communication n. 10

July 18 2000

The health of the Rector Major

Today at noontime don Vecchi left the hospital "Gemelli" and went to the >salesian community of S. Callixtus in Rome. The doctors ordered him "complete rest". He appeared vigorous and he desires to start walking in the grounds of the Catacombs.

In order to allow him to rest well, we would like all eventual communications for the Rector Major to be directed to the Generalate in Via della Pisana.

I want to thank all those who have sent messages of encouragement and especially for the many prayers offered for his health all over the world.

Luc Van Looy, sdb
