He was the founder of two very active religious congregations during a time when other orders were being suppressed; he was a trusted and key liaison between the Papacy and the emerging Italian nation of the Risorgimento; above all, in troubled times, he was the saintly Christian educator who successfully wedded modern pedagogy to Christ's law and Christ's love for the poor young, and thereby deserved the proud title of Apostle of youth.

  • Salesians of Don Bosco
    Salesians of Don Bosco The Salesians of Don Bosco is a religious congregation of Priests and Brothers founded in 1859 by Saint John Bosco (1815 – 1888). He was a tireless worker on behalf of young people in Turin, Italy, especially the poor, the homeless and the uneducated. Through a range of educational, religious and other activities he helped them to become ‘good Christians and honest citizens'. Don (or ‘Father’) Bosco founded his religious congregation to continue his work and named it ‘Salesians’ after the Bishop of Geneva St Francis de Sales (1567 – 1622). The approach of St Francis was to emphasize that God was loving and merciful rather than exacting and judgemental and that holiness was achievable through ordinary rather than extraordinary things. John Bosco sought to bring the love of God to young people, many poor and without work or education, so that they would know that they were valued and rich in potential. This he did though practical action taking the homeless into his own house and through the provision of accommodation, the teaching of trades, schooling, and academic education for the more able. His motivation was not just to make them ‘honest citizens’ able to earn their own living; he was driven by a passion to save souls (‘Da mini animas caetera tolle’), to educate young people in their Christian faith and to challenge them to holiness as exemplified by his pupil St Dominic Savio, the name adopted by Savio Salesian College. The religious order that he founded (the Salesians of Don Bosco) with 14,500 members continues his work in 132 countries.

  • September 2019 Enewsletter
    ​ ​ ​ "Walking in Faith, Working for Justice" The new school year is well underway and students, faculty, and staff are beginning to settle into a regular school routine. Throughout the Salesian world-wide family, three days (or triduum) are traditionally set aside at the beginning of each school year to focus on our identity as a Salesian school. We will set aside September 11-13 for these three days of reflection and celebration. During these three days, we will have opportunities for the Sacrament of Reconciliation, our annual Faith Family picnic, and our first all-school Mass. Each year, as part of our Salesian triduum, we also reflect on a message sent to us from the Rector Major - the leader of the Salesians throughout the world and successor of St. John Bosco. In this annual message or strenna, the Rector Major encourages us to grow in our calling as a Catholic school, following the example of Don Bosco. This year, the Rector Major's strenna centers on the core of our Salesian identity, namely, to form young people who are honest and upright, grounded in faith, and responsible members of their communities. Our theme for the year, based on the strenna, is "Walking in Faith, Working for Justice." This theme reminds us that each day we are called to ‘walk the walk’ when it comes to our faith. How can we treat another person with dignity and respect that they deserve as a beloved child of God? We are also called to be agents of justice in our world. How do we reach out and help those in need; how do we welcome the stranger in our midst; how do we build up our communities where all are treated with dignity, respect, and with justice? These questions encourage us to live this new year together with an awareness of the bigger picture in life.
