Quelques enjeux et défis pour le synode des jeunes Mercredi 3 octobre s’ouvrira le synode des évêques sur « les jeunes, la foi et le discernement vocationnel ». Celui-ci se déroulera à Rome du 3 au 28 octobre sous la présidence du Pape François en présence de représentants du monde entier. Après deux ans de préparation marqués par divers processus et démarches de consultation afin de permettre une réelle écoute des jeunes eux-mêmes, ce temps fort de prière, d’écoute, d’échanges et de discernement prendra appui sur la nouvelle constitution apostolique sur le Synode des Evêques Episcopalis communio publiée récemment par le Pape François. Voulu dans la continuité des deux synodes sur la famille, ce synode ordinaire - temps ecclésial privilégié de « marche ensemble » à l’écoute de l’Esprit - s’inscrit comme une étape importante de la dynamique de transformation missionnaire de l’Eglise portée par le Pape François et souhaitée par de très nombreux fidèles et paste...

Holy Father, Synod fathers, participants and young people The second part of the “Working Document” highlights the link between the fullness of life and the realization of one’s vocation, intended as God’s dream for a person through which one attains his or her happiness in order to contribute to the happiness of others. This being the case, vocational accompaniment is a process, which not only aims at understanding one’s specific life choice, but also living the choice of life in enduring love and commitment. This calls for consideration of the spaces within which to foster and accompany vocations in the young. In most cases, the basic sense of purpose in life develops in the family and then complemented by other environments where the young people spend their lives. As a Salesian Sister engaged with young people who find themselves on the streets and in charitable institutions in Kenya, i realize that many Kenyans are “caught in between” a social, economic and political syst...
