The opportunity to visit the places of the Founder in Turin and Castelnuovo Don Bosco, &#8220;has strengthened in us the love for this charism, and has increased in us the desire to continue to follow the mission as he wanted it. This mission made of fraternity, of working together, of the path towards holiness&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Padre Marcelo De Losa, IMC: CAF Buenos Aires in Argentina\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p5Hg6zt3BOA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>CAF Santo Cura Brochero is a community of 7 students of 4 nationalities, with a team of 3 formators (Fr.
