The VEGA Formation Experience for Young Lasallian Professionals concluded last July 8-13 at La Salle University which brought together educators to explore the essence of the Lasallian mission through the lens of VEGA, an acronym derived from the Italian words “See, Judge, and Act.”
With the theme “One Body, Many Parts: Contemporary Lasallians in Action,” this year emphasized the unity and diversity within the Lasallian community. The program aimed to provide a space for young educators to deepen their understanding of what it takes to keep Lasallian education relevant and impactful in today’s world.

Our heartfelt thanks go out to the Young Lasallians Council (YLC) for organizing VEGA and for their unwavering dedication to developing formation programs for young Lasallians in the District of Eastern North America. Their mission aligns with the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, making our education ministries a vital part of the Catholic Church.
Special gratitude to the DENA YLC members for their dedication, love, and commitment to this mission. Your efforts are truly inspiring!
A very special thanks to Julia Turner for her years of leadership and the zeal she exudes for the Lasallian charism. Her commitment to providing a human and Christian education, especially for the poor and marginalized, has been truly remarkable.
