(ANSA) – ANCONA, 02 MAY – “Today the biggest challenge to be faced is education”. The archbishop of Ancona Osimo Angelo Spina paid particular attention to adolescents in his message on the occasion of the feast of the patron saint of Ancona San Ciriaco. The prelate observes that “the chronicles of our day do not always speak well of them. We must not be discouraged – he exhorts -. They await a friendly and reassuring presence, even if at first they appear bold or bored, apathetic or depressed, even violent, bullies”. “With parents, educators, animators – adds Msgr. Spina -, all those who have the task of formation are called together. The children ask us one thing: ‘we must and want to grow up and we cannot do it without your closeness’ “. But educators must live their task “as a vocation: it is not just a profession, but a calling, it is not just a salary to live, but a task to make people live. It is urgent – he insists – the alliance between all forces social and educational components of society: the family, the school, the parish oratory, a living space, healthy sport, are not Indian reservations on the side of a society that for the most part is dedicated to the economy and production. We need a great educational pact, even the school needs more esteem, more social support, more appreciation “. “It seems that prevention seems to have become a dirty word – insists Msgr.

Plug -. Instead, it is necessary to go back to complementing the necessary control of the territory by the police with the need for an educating community. It is necessary: ​​to train, to prevent, to educate. It is not the repression that will change the person and the society, we know it well, but the inner change. As a Church, involving families, parents, educators, teachers, we are called to urgently welcome the cry for help of children and young people “. (ANSA).
