IFAK: THIRSTY TO LEARN IN TIMES OF COVID-19

Since 2nd November ,2020, the Rwandan government has allowed schools to resume their activities after more than 7 months of interruption due to the health situation due to Covid-19 that the world is currently experiencing. It is perhaps too early to make any assessment, we just want to point out a few observations, one week after the start of the school year in IFAK Don Bosco.

Only students from S3, S5 and S6 were allowed to start classes on 2nd November. It was an experimental re-entry in the sense that its success would allow the return of students from other levels, namely those of S1, S2 and S4 secondary.

GOODBYE TO FATHER DANKO AND FATHER VENUSTE.

At the beginning of each pastoral year, we notice changes in Salesian communities. Confreres receive new appointments and often change houses. On Saturday August 15, 2020, the confreres of the IFAK community and representatives of the teachers, workers and collaborators, said goodbye to Father Danko Litrić who has just completed his six-year term as director of the community and to Father Vénuste Ntigurirwa who was the Economer for the past two years.
These two confreres have received a new mission: Father Danko is appointed in the community of Rango (Huye), in southern Rwanda, while Father Vénuste will be in the parish of Rukago, in northern Burundi.

FESTIVITY OF DON BOSCO: RECOLLECTION OF IFAK STUDENTS

As part of the preparation for the feast of Saint John Bosco, IFAK organized, on January 30, a recollection. In a climate of meditation, the Dean of discipline, Fratri Jean Marie HITIMANA developed the theme of divine mercy. After an introductory prayer, he first recalled that we all need God’s mercy. By citing a few biblical verses, he showed that God never ceases to show his love for the man he created. In the Old Testament, Adam and Eve disobeyed by eating the forbidden fruit; they deserved a serious punishment but, in his goodness, God gave them clothes to hide their nakedness which was a consequence of their sin.
