A radio serial, various writings, musical resources, videos and photographs etc., are just some of the materials that have been collected and presented over the years and are now available again with a new revised design at www.conoceadonbosco.com.

The site has, among other resources, 24 chapters of a serial radio story and allows users to download pictures, drawings, videos or musicals on the life of the saint. Material is also offered to animate celebrations such as the Eucharist, the triduum, moments of prayer and "good morning" thoughts to prepare for the feast of Don Bosco on 31 January.
Another section focuses on the life of the saint, and includes materials on Don Bosco's biography, studies on him, some of the saint's writings, games and suggestions for group meetings that can help get to know his life, dreams and miracles.
"We invite you to take a few minutes to browse through the different sections and find out where you can find what you are looking for on Don Bosco," shares the National Delegation of Social Communication of the Salesians of Spain. "Prepare your materials and enjoy the month of January, happy feast of St. John Bosco!"
