Taipei, Taiwan – 19 March 2017 – This year we commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first Mass celebrated by the Salesian missionaries at Taipei Bosco's Hall. The photograph shows the start of Salesian work in Taipei. To realize the missionary dream of Don Bosco, the Salesians had to travel across the ocean, before reaching Macao, then Hong Kong and finally Taiwan. When they reached the island they went first to Tainan, where they started a vocational school and a parish, and later went to Taipei in 1964.
