Salesians 2014 - what one region thinks
SAO PAULO: 12 January 2013 --  The SALESIANS 2014 Magazine, now in its 5th edition, should already have reached provinces in the EAO Region or be arriving as we write (according to numbers ordered last year).  Given that three members of the EAO Region were fundamentally were key members of the team that saw this Magazine reach publication and distribution stage, it is interesting to note what another region thinks of this particular edition, and how they, as a region, have managed it.  We are speaking of the combined provinces of Brazil, who undertook to print the magazine there but provide copies for Portugal, Angola, Mozambique and for Portuguese-speakers in Japan (of whom there are many).

The Salesian who is responsible for this undertaking in Brazil, Fr Nivaldo Pessinatti, recetnyl sent Fr Filiberto Gonzalex the following summary of comments and actions regarding Salesians 2014:

a) Graphics: very creative, light and attractive.
The 6 part division: very interesting and appropriate.
b) Articles: good diversity and yet well-integrated in their sections. The experiential style is always appropriate.
c) Photos: good quality and artistic. They display the multifaceted Salesian presence.
d) Printing in Brazil: Results excellent.
e) Distribution: beginning next week, provinces will receive the quantities ordered and will do local distribution. As for earlier years, we will see that it is sent to the most significant beneficiaries in the region.

Brazil printed 6,000 copies and generously sent Angola, Mozambique and Japan their copies free of charge.

The degree of appreciation, the superb collaboration across all kinds of possible boundaries and limitations, and the generosity of Brazil (or should we say their sense of Congregation and fraternal concern) immediately stands out from the above information.
