Salesian
Creed
GC23, 95
We believe that God loves the
young. This is the conviction
which is at the origin of our
vocation, and which motivates
our life and all our pastoral
activity.
We believe that
Jesus wants to
share “his life” with
young people: they
are the hope of a
new future, and in
their expectations
they bear the seeds
of the Kingdom.
We believe that the Spirit is present in
them and that through them he wants
to build a more authentic and human
Christian community. He is already at
work in individuals and groups. He has
given them a prophetic task to carry out
in the world which is also the world of
all of us.
We believe that God is
awaiting us in the young
to offer us the grace of
meeting with him and to
dispose us to serve him
in them, recognising
their dignity and
educating them to the
fullness of life.
In this way our work of
education becomes the
pre-eminent context in
which to meet him.
We believe with Don Bosco:
That social
communication
was amongst
the most
important
tasks entrusted
to him by
Divine
Providence
We believe with Don Bosco:
That the
spreading of
good books is
one of the
principal aims
of our
Congregation
We believe with Don Bosco:
That similar
activities will
call down on
us and our
youngsters the
choicest
blessings of
the Lord
Let us pray…
Give us, Father,
Don Bosco’s
vision, so we can
take up social
communication
as a divine work
in the service of
the young.
“Tutti i confini della
terra vedranno la
salvezza del nostro
Dio” (Is 52,10)
Through the intercession of Mary…
Make who spread human
and spiritual values into
communicators:
the voice of the voiceless,
bearers of truth leading
to you,
and of the fellowship in the
Kingdom announced to
us by your Son Jesus.
