(ANS - Rome) - The Mass that the Rector Major, Fr Ángel Fernández Artime, will preside at next Sunday, January 30, at 11:00 a.m. (UTC+1), in the Basilica of Mary Help of Christians in Turin, will be broadcast live on RAI 1, the first Italian national network. It is a tribute to Don Bosco, on the eve of his liturgical memorial.

But this is not the only appointment to take note of this Sunday.

On the same day, in fact, continuing the initiative started at the beginning of this Salesian January, the celebration at 10:00 a.m. (UTC+1) at another church founded by Don Bosco himself - the Sacred Heart church, in Rome - will be broadcast live nationwide: the Eucharist in this case will be presided over by the Vicar of the Rector Major, Fr Stefano Martoglio, and broadcast live on Canale 5 and TV2000.

And as far as TV2000 alone is concerned, it may also be useful to recall the other Masses broadcast from the Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Rome on that day:

7 a.m. - Presided over by Fr Guido Novella, parish priest of the Basilica;

8:30 a.m. - Presided by Fr Pascual Chávez Villanueva, Rector Major Emeritus;

7 p.m. - Presided by Fr Stefano Aspettati, Superior of the Salesian Circumscription of Central Italy (ICC).

On the 400th anniversary of the death of St. Francis de Sales, Patron Saint of Communicators, Don Bosco, who was inspired by him, goes on the air almost "in unified networks".
