Aleppo's Salesian Youth Center Stages Musical


Aleppo’s Salesian Youth Center
Stages Musical Despite the War

(ANS – Aleppo, Syria – March 30) – From March 21 to 23, the young people of the Salesian youth center in Aleppo staged a musical entitled His Love Transformed Me, a story based on Don Bosco’s dream of 1844, in which lambs become shepherds. The musical was produced with over 100 university and high school students and was the fruit of a formative journey that took place during the first pastoral semester, led by Fr. Pier Jabloyan, director of the Salesian community in Aleppo. The show was attended by families and young people from Aleppo, the youths of the Salesian youth centers in Damascus and Kafroun, and a group of young people from the Al Fidar school in Lebanon. Various priests, nuns, and bishops were present at the performance, including Greek Melkite Bishop Jean-Clement Jeanbart, Latin Bishop George Abi Khazen, and Maronite Bishop Joseph Tobji.
