EAO Good Night Talk (41)                                                                  

 

   August 1, 2017

 

Accompaniment - one of Salesian key words

 

Dear Friends and Salesian Family members!

 

  

     I’m more and more deeply convinced that we need more time to sit down and reflect, also to kneel down and pray for the things we reflect. Just few weeks ago we had a good chance of the yearly spiritual retreat with the Rector Major in a Benedictine Abbey near Florence. When I reflect on past 3 year experience as regional councilor, I realized very strongly our renewed commitment to accompaniment. Indeed at present with Fr. Angel we dedicate substantial time to accompany 90 SDB provincials around the world. Straight after their appointment they are called to Rome for a personal talk with all council members and there are other three more occasions during their 6 year term.

 

   Don Bosco was accompanied by many people, from Don Calosso up to Don Cafasso. We acknowledge a strong family spirit at Valdocco as the best environment for growth in faith, vocation and mission for the young. Everybody was accompanied and in turn the first Salesian generation were able to accompany the youngsters and young Salesians.

 

  With honesty we acknowledge a huge deficit of accompaniment in our communities today. There are many reasons – no time, not considering it important or simple don’t know how to accompany our youth and our confreres. But if I’m not accompanied by somebody else, it’s also very difficult to expect that I will be able to journey together with others.

 

  During this summer time (winter in the southern part of the EAO region) I’m praying that we are able to help our provincials to accompany better their rectors, that the rectors and other mature Salesians would dedicate enough time and energy for accompaniment of their confreres, lay mission partners, Salesian family members and especially for the young who show signs of vocation.

 

  And we believe that the first and most important attitude on the journey is the ability to listen – with calm, patience and faith vision. Let’s make this summer a time of listening, walking together, praying together and helping to discover the dream of God about each of one of us!

 

In Don Bosco

    Grazie per la Buona Notte
    Ritengo anch’io che l’ACCOMPAGNAMENTO sia molto importante ,
    nel contesto missionario in Giappone.
    Bisogna continuare ad accompagnare I nuovi battezzati.

    Your newsletter refers to acompagnamento di nuovi rettori ,superiori etc,and youth .
    I will act on it…today.
    May God bless your work , from Padre P.

    Dear Father,
    Yours is really a very inspiring talk. Thanks a lot.
    I do appreciate and agree fully to what you said. This is what the young among us and also our elderly most in need of in this world of coldness and individualism as you and our Pope Francis observe.
    We have just had our Retreat with Bishop Ha, a Franciscan as our wonderful and very inspiring preacher on the topic of Fraternity and Communion in the community that made us experience the presence of God among us.
    Now, our elderly are having their Retreat in Braga House. And there will be the last one follows for about 40 confreres, in English. preached by the former master of Novices of Philippines and provincial of FIS, Please pray for us all. United in prayers.

    共に歩む同伴 – サレジオのキーワードの一つ



     友人の皆さん、サレジオ家族の皆さん!

     腰を下ろしてふり返る時間、ふり返ったことをひざまずいて祈る時間が私たちにはもっと必要だと、私はますます深く確信するようになりました。私たちは数週間前、フィレンツェの近くにあるベネディクト会の修道院で総長と共に年の黙想をする機会に恵まれました。地域顧問としてのこの3年を振り返ったとき、私たちが共に歩む同伴に新たに取り組んでいることに、とても強い印象をもって気づきました。実に、私たちは現在、アンヘル神父と共に、世界中の90人の管区長に同伴するために多くの時間をさいています。管区長たちは任命されるとすぐにローマに招聘され、最高評議員全員と、一人ひとり話す機会を持ちます。6年の任期中には、さらに3度、このような機会があります。

     ドン・ボスコは多くの人に同伴されました、ドン・カロッソからドン・カファッソに至るまで。私たちは、ヴァルドッコの豊かな家庭的精神が若者の信仰、召命、使命の成長のために最良の環境であると認識しています。ヴァルドッコでは皆が共に歩んでもらっていました。そうして最初の世代のサレジオ会員は、子どもたちと若いサレジオ会員に同伴することができました。

     今日、私たちの共同体には共に歩む同伴が大きく欠けていると、私たちは正直に認めます。さまざまな理由があります - 時間がない、重要と思っていない、あるいはただ若者や会員にどのように同伴したらよいかわからない、などといった理由です。しかし、私自身が誰かに同伴してもらわなければ、私がほかの人々と共に歩めると期待するのは難しいでしょう。

     この夏(EAO地域の南半球では冬)、管区長たちを助けることができるようにと私は祈っています。そして管区長が院長によりよく同伴し、院長やほかの円熟したサレジオ会員が兄弟会員、信徒ミッション・パートナー、サレジオ家族のメンバー、そして特に、召命のしるしの見られる若者に同伴するために、十分な時間とエネルギーをかけますようにと。

     そして私たちは、この歩みにおける第一の、最も大切な姿勢は、耳を傾ける力だと信じています - 穏やかに、忍耐強く、信仰のまなざしをもって。この夏を、耳を傾ける時、共に歩み、共に祈り、私たち一人ひとりへの神の夢を発見できるよう助ける時にしましょう!

     ドン・ボスコのうちに。

     EAO地域顧問 ヴァツラフ・クレメンテ神父, SDB

    Dear Father!
    During the summer apostolic times, it is a great gift from God to meet the young people, especially the poor in the mission area. May the Lord have mercy on the Lord to give thanks to you, so that through the commitment of you and each member of the Salesian family, young people are becoming increasingly aware of the image of God, of Don Bosco. In the heart of the world today.

    Đồng hành: một trong những từ chìa khóa của người Sa-lê-diêng

    Các bạn hữu và các thành viên trong gia đình Sa-lê-diêng thân mến,

    Càng ngày Cha càng thâm tín sâu xa rằng, chúng ta cần phải dành nhiều thời gian hơn nữa để ngồi lại và suy tư, thậm chí phải quỳ gối xuống để cầu nguyện dựa trên những gì chúng ta suy nghĩ. Vài tuần trước đây, các Bề Trên trong Ban Thượng Cố vấn cùng với Cha Bề Trên cả đã có cuộc tĩnh tâm năm tại đan viện dòng nữ Biển đức gần thành phố Florence. Trong tuần tĩnh tâm, Cha đã có dịp nhìn lại kinh nghiệm suốt 3 năm qua, trong vai trò Tổng Cố vấn – Bề Trên miền, và Cha đã nhận thức rất mãnh liệt về việc cần canh tân trong bổn phận đồng hành. Qủa thật, hiện nay cùng với Cha Bề Trên cả, các Bề Trên trong Ban Thượng Cố vấn đã dành nhiều thời gian quý báu để đồng hành với 90 Cha Giám tỉnh trên khắp thế giới. Sau khi được bổ nhiệm, các Cha Giám tỉnh đã được mời về Rôma để gặp gỡ cá nhân từng vị trong Ban Tổng Cố vấn, và trong nhiệm kỳ 6 năm làm Giám tỉnh, các Ngài còn có 3 dịp khác đến Rôma để tiếp tục được đồng hành.

    Don Bosco ngày xưa cũng đã được nhiều Bề trên đồng hành với, từ Cha Calosso đến Cha Cafasso. Chúng ta thấy rất rõ tinh thần gia đình tại nguyện xá Valdocco, và đây là môi trường rất tốt để nuôi dưỡng đức tin, để phát huy ơn gọi và làm triển nở sứ mệnh truyền giáo nơi các bạn trẻ. Mọi người ở đây đều được đồng hành, và đến lượt họ, thế hệ Sa-lê-diêng đầu tiên cũng hăng hái đồng hành với các bạn trẻ và với các anh em Sa-lê-diêng trẻ tuổi.

    Thành thật mà nói, chúng ta ngày nay nhận thức rất rõ thực trạng đang thiếu vắng sự đồng hành tại các cộng thể. Có nhiều lý do để nêu ra, ví dụ chúng tôi không có thời gian, chúng tôi thấy việc đó không quan trọng lắm, hoặc đơn giản vì chúng tôi không biết cách đồng hành với các hội viên và với các bạn trẻ… Nếu chúng ta không được người khác đồng hành với, thì rất khó để kỳ vọng rằng, chúng ta cũng biết cách để đồng hành với các hội viên và các bạn trẻ khác trong tương lai.

    Vào mùa đông hiện nay (đa số các nơi trong vùng EAO bắt đầu vào mùa đông), Cha cầu nguyện xin Chúa nâng đỡ để các Cha Giám tỉnh biết cách thực thi việc đồng hành với các Giám đốc 1 cách tốt đẹp hơn. Để rồi đến lượt mình, các Cha Giám đốc và các hội viên lão thành cũng biết dành nhiều thời gian và sức lực để đồng hành với các hội viên trong cộng thể, đồng hành với những người đời đang cộng tác trong sứ mệnh, đồng hành với các thành viên trong gia đình Sa-lê-diêng, nhất là đồng hành với các bạn trẻ đang có dấu hiệu về ơn gọi.

    Chúng ta xác định rằng, thái độ đầu tiên và quan trọng nhất trong lộ trình đồng hành là việc biết lằng nghe nhau trong tĩnh lặng với sự kiên nhẫn và với cảm thức đức tin sâu xa.

    Thời gian này, chúng ta hãy phát huy việc biết lắng nghe nhau, cùng đồng hành với nhau, cùng nhau cầu nguyện và cùng giúp nhau khám phá ra ước mơ của Thiên Chúa nơi mỗi người.

    Trong Don Bosco

    Cha Vaclav Klement
