It helps share some of the background of the patrons of Catholic Media and includes suitable prayers relevant to this profession and gives a special emphasis to the patron saint of publishers & editors, Don Bosco.

Read about Isaac, who survived life in the slums of Nairobi and post-election violence during 2007/2008 to become owner of his own travel agency and volunteer and benefactor at CompassionHeart charity. Or Suntia, who was rescued from abuse by missionaries at the Girls' Shelter of Don Bosco in Freetown, Sierra Leone. Suntia is now studying to be a social worker and help girls who have experienced violence. All these moving and inspiring stories highlight the importance of our Salesian missionaries, who work tirelessly to help young people who are suffering and need guidance.
