austraLasia 1305
Please bear with the repetition of 1305 in the email subject line (though not for the numbered item itself) - this numbering is required to come into line with what is recorded in the archived austraLasia collection on Bosconet. The discrepancy in numbering occurred when the server here gobbled up one of the mailouts. It's a long story...just don't ask!
From the home of Good News: Shalom! A new venture in an international community
JERUSALEM: 26th October 2005 -- "...8 from Africa, 7 from America, 14 from Asia, 14 from Europe". So reads SHALOM, the first hot-off-the-press newsletter from the Salesian Community of Ratisbonne, Jerusalem, which reached austraLasia on the evening of the 25th. In fact the issue is dated 24th October, and the newsletter explains that this will be a monthly venture, precisely dated the 24th. It further adds that we can expect a bonanza edition twice a year for Christmas and Easter .
This is good news from the very home of Good News itself! We are not dealing simply with a studentate newsletter - they come and they go - but with one of the more representative theological and formation centres in the Congregation, and one which receives any number of its members from the EAO Region in any one year. And it is in Jerusalem, an Apostolic See of significance....
The Ratisbonne Centre is planning a website, again something which will highlight its unique positioning in the world of major religions and the Salesian world, but in the meantime, Bosconet has offered to host at least the editions of SHALOM that will eventuate before the website is up and running. If you wish to catch up with the news from that part of the world, go to www.bosconet.aust.com and look for SHALOM top left on the homepage.
