Tim Hughes, a recent Salesian Lay Missioner joins Vicky and Fr. Steve and shares a bit about his faith journey focusing on building and maintaining a strong Christian foundation. Who are we? Who is Jesus? What does that mean for how I live my life?

Scripture Theme: “When the Jews from Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to him to ask him, “Who are you?” he admitted and did not deny it, but admitted, “I am not the Christ.” So they asked him, What are you then? Are you Elijah? And he said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” “No.” So they said to him, “Who are you, so we can give an answer to those who sent us? What do you have to say for yourself?” He said: “I am the voice of one crying gout in the desert, ‘make straight the way of the Lord.” (John: 1:6-8, 19-28)

Happy feast of the Immaculate Conception!

Welcome back to another episode! On this episode Fr. Steve and Vicky took the podcast on the road and sat with Sr. Elfie Del Rosario, FMA. She spoke about Mary and the many ways she guides us personally, as Salesian family and how she guided our founders. A beautiful episode of the Mothers love and unending support for us.

"Mary was a living presence in the Oratory of Valdocco, as inspiration, guide and teacher. Her presence filled the house and made them feel and experience the closeness of the one of God. Salesian Youth Spirituality encourages a simple, confident reliance on the maternal care of the Blessed Virgin Mary. (Frame of Reference 105-6)

Welcome back to Valdocco! This episode you'll meet one of our young adults, Izzy Rennella coming to us virtually from Miami, Florida. She shares her authentic witness and experiences as an educator and a student on the playgrounds impact in her life! I'm sure you'll experience the joy that is Izzy just by listening!

"The experience of the "playground" is a natural environment where young people can form and deepen friendship and trust. The playground is understood as the place of education to happiness and joy. It encourages values and attitudes of confidence, and a suitable place for the care of each young person, for the little word in the ear, where the relationship between educator and young person helps to overcome the formalism associated with other structures, roles and environments." (Frame of Reference pg. 139)

You can find sister on instagram under @srhaejin we hope you enjoy it!

"The experience of the "parish" is built on two main pillars: in the first place the belief that every young person has in his or her heart the desire for God, the desire for a full life, the unifying perspective of faith secondly, a series of initiatives suitable to young people, with the goal of helping them to discover and follow their vocation."

Welcome back to another episode of Valdocco! On this episode of you'll meet Fr. Lou Molinelli and listen to his take on the School that Prepares for Life!

“When we think of the origin of our Congregation and Family, we find first of all a community, which was not only visible, but indeed quite unique, almost like a lantern in the darkness of night: Valdocco, the home of a novel community and a pastoral setting that was widely known, extensive and open…such a community gave rise to a new culture, not in an academic sense but in that of a new style of relationship between young people and educators, between laity and priests, between artisans and students, a relationship which had its effect on the area and on the city itself…All this had as its root and raison d’etre the faith and pastoral charity, which tried to create from within a family spirit, and led to a deep affection for God and our Lady.” - (Fr. Juan Vecchi, AGC 373, "This is the acceptable time")
