for 2020-2021
Last Sunday Fr. Tim Zak, provincial, published a letter with some appointments for the next pastoral year of our province, which will begin on July 1, 2020.
Of chief interest is the appointment of several directors (religious superiors of the SDB community).
The term of the director is 3 years, and normally he may be reappointed for a 2d term in the same community (Const. art. 177). In recent years it hasn't been unheard that individuals are "extended" to a 3d term. And for this new round of appointments, the province is going further yet:
 |
| Fr. Jim Heuser |
Fr. Jim McKenna, director of the community of the Marian Shrine-Don Bosco Retreat Center in Haverstraw-Stony Point, N.Y., for the last 9 years, has been appointed for one more year.
 |
| Fr. Jim McKenna |
Fr. Lou Molinelli, director of the community of Archbishop Shaw HS in Marrero, La., and the 2 Salesian-led parishes in Harvey for the last 9 years, has been appointed for one more year.
 |
| Fr. Lou Molinelli |
Fr. Matt DeGance as director of the community in Belle Glade, Fla., whose pastoral mission is care for St. Philip Benizi Parish;
and Fr. Alain Leonard as director of the community in Sherbrooke, Que., whose apostolate includes pastoral care at Seminaire Salesien (Le Salesien), a co-ed high school with a lay board of directors.
Fr. Luc Lantagne was named director of the community in Montreal, which runs the Don Bosco Youth Centre. Fr. Luc is also the missions procurator for Canada.
The provincial nominates directors with the consent of the provincial council. The nominations must be confirmed by the Rector Major, as these have been.
