Safety Beach, Australia, October 18, 2015 - On the weekend starting 9th of October fifteen young Salesian mentors gathered together and explored what this question means. Starting with the broad perspective, the definitions, and secular understandings of faith. Discussing their own perspectives on faith and developing an insight into each other's experience.


The weekend was the third of three annual ASYM retreats. Each year ASYM have a community, mission and faith retreat. These are a chance for ASYM to grow together in community, share their faith and live out their mission.


As the weekend progressed members talked about Don Bosco's faith, aspects of Christian faith, the relationship of faith and reason and faith like a child. They discussed the ways that they personally experience their faith such as music, the Sacraments, art, the Rosary, action and service, as well as sharing in moments of prayer, reflection and recreation.
