Syria - February 2023 - As the death toll from the terrible earthquake continues to rise, relief efforts to help survivors have not stopped. In Syria, Salesians are working tirelessly to provide shelter for those who have lost everything. So many in Aleppo and surrounding areas have been left without a home, without basic necessities, without a place to go. The Salesians have thus opened their doors, reminded them that "the Church is the house of God and it is the house of all." Thanks to the support of so many benefactors, Salesian Mission Offices, Offices of Planning and Development, and Salesian NGOs, a large mobilization has begun to bring aid to all those in need.

On Monday, January 31, Salesian works around the world celebrated the Feast of Don Bosco in an atmosphere of joy and enthusiasm. The Saint of Youth was honored with many creative initiatives and celebrations by Salesians, youth, families, and faithful, all gathered to celebrate our Founder. Here are some of the most significant pictures depicting the festive moments in honor of Don Bosco.

Italy, Turin - January 2023 - Yesterday, 15 January, in the Basilica of Mary Help of Christians, with the Mass presided by the Rector Major, Fr Ángel Fernández Artime, the Days of Spirituality of the Salesian Family 2023 came to an end. They were four especially intense days, during which about 300 members of this large religious family met in Valdocco with the Rector Major and the Leaders of most of the 32 groups of the Salesian Family. Together, they prayed, shared spirituality, and reflected on the Strenna 2023: "AS THE YEAST IN TODAY'S HUMAN FAMILY. The Lay Dimension of the Family of Don Bosco."

Zagreb, Croatia - October 2022 - On October 15-16, the Rector Major, Fr Ángel Fernández Artime, attended the celebrations for 100 years of Salesian presence in Zagreb, Croatia, and the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the "St. John Bosco" Province of Croatia (CRO). There were many events attended by the Successor of Don Bosco to bring closeness to the Salesians, the Salesian Family, and Croatian youth. The highlight of the two-day celebration was the celebration of Mass at the shrine of the Holy Mother of Liberty, presided over by Fr. Sutalo, during which the Rector Major delivered the homily. "This anniversary," he said, "is a strong and beautiful occasion to thank the Lord for all He has given us in the centenary of our presence in this city."
