ADMA Formation Program Strengthens Mission of Salesian Family in Panjim Province
The Salesian Province of Panjim hosted a comprehensive formation program for members of the Association of Mary Help of Christians (ADMA) at the Don Bosco Provincial House, Odxel, on August 17. The day-long program, led by Provincial Delegate for the Salesian Family, Fr Anisio Mota, aimed at deepening the understanding and commitment of ADMA members.
The program began with the Holy Eucharist celebrated by Provincial, Fr Clive Telles, setting a reflective and spiritual tone. In his sessions, Fr Mota provided an in-depth explanation of the 18 Regulations of ADMA, using practical examples to help the 42 participants integrate them into their daily lives. He also addressed the specific needs of ADMA groups, highlighting the importance of stability, growth, and the leadership roles of office bearers and spiritual animators in sustaining the mission of the association.
Provincial Fr. Telles further enriched the program by sharing insights on the privileges of ADMA membership, with a special focus on the gift of Plenary Indulgences available to members. His reflections encouraged participants to recognize and live out the spiritual richness of belonging to the association.
The program also included interactive sessions, where participants engaged in clarifications, discussions, and the exchange of best practices, creating an opportunity for members to learn from one another’s experiences and strengthen bonds across different units.
All five registered ADMA units of the Panjim Province — Don Bosco Panjim, Don Bosco Odxel, Auxilium Convent Benaulim, Auxilium Convent Velim, and Don Bosco Parra — were represented at the event, reflecting the shared commitment of the wider ADMA community.
