The General Administration posted a letter on July 3 regarding the reorganization of communications at the congregational level. Fr. Levi dos Anjos Ferreira, SCJ, is the general councilor with responsibility for communications. “As General Government, we are convinced that communication is one of the privileged means to respond to the mission entrusted to us: the responsibility of serving unity in dynamic fidelity to the spirit and intentions of the Founder ( cf. Cst 112),” wrote Fr. Levi.
An international team of young SCJs representing the various geographic areas of the congregation has been named to work together to enhance communication about and among the congregation’s entities. Frater Henry Nguyen, SCJ, represents North America on the committee (pictured lower left). Other members include: Fr. Rodrigo Alves de Oliveira Arruda (BRE), Br. Boris Signe Mouafo (CMR),
Dn. Tink Thomas Padapurakkal (IND), Fr. Jose Zeferino Policarpo Ferreira (POR) and Br. Ali Ernesto Villaroel Barreto (VEN). Fr. Sergio Rotasperti (GER) is the communications coordinator (he is pictured upper right); he and members of the team have already held several meetings via conference call.
Among the committee’s projects is a revision of the general website (www.dehoniani.org). Frater Henry is working with Mary Gorski (US Province) on updating the DehoniansWorldwide Facebook page.
