Rector Major Publishes Commentary on 2020 Strenna

Rector Major Publishes Commentary 
on 2020 Strenna


It took an uncharacteristically long time for the text of the Rector Major's (Fr. Angel Fernandez Artime) explanation (commentary) of this year's strenna or Salesian theme to be published.  As noted almost 2 weeks ago, he presented it orally (in Italian) to the Salesian sisters and other members of the family gathered at the sisters' generalate.  See https://sdbnews.blogspot.com/2019/12/good-christians-and-upright-citizens.html

The commentary is quite lengthy (as usual), and after the original Roman English text was delivered to me a few days ago, I spent 3 days refining its grammar, typos, and style into something that (we hope) will be easier for our confreres and other members of the Salesian Family to read.

Actually, I don't know where the text originated; it hasn't been published at the Congregation's website.  It was forwarded to me by one with whom I frequently collaborate on Salesian matters.
