In relation to the charism, the point of reference that:
-Gives witness to the primacy of God and of the total dedication to the educative-evangelizing mission; - Guarantees the Salesian identity and is the center of communion and participation;- Calls, welcomes, and encourages the laity to participate in the Salesian spirit and mission;-Is primarily responsible for their spiritual,
Salesian, and vocation-related formation. (CG24, 159).
