The participants gathered in Tanzania spent the morning considering issues related to financing the Salvatorian mission. Much of the money raised through the Salvatorian Office for International Aid (SOFIA) is provided to the African units for the purpose of specific projects. As a result, Dr. Arnout Mertens, director of SOFIA, explained how this money is raised and distributed as well as the growing challenges facing the Society in this regard. In the afternoon the participants were encouraged to celebrate the Salvatorian Missionary Year 2015. Also, Fr. Agustin led them in a consideration of questions on restructuring that apply to the sharing of human and financial resources among the African units.
