The U in JesUs

Before U were thought of or time had begun, God stuck U in the 

 name of His Son.

And each time U pray, you'll see it's true, You can't spell out JesUs
and not include U.

You're a pretty big part of His wonderful name, For U, He was born;that's why He came.

And His great love for U is the reason He died. It even takes U to
spell crUcified.

Isn't it thrilling and splendidly grand He rose from the dead, with U
in His plan?

The stones split away, the gold trUmpet blew, and this word
resUrrection is spelled with a U.

When JesUs left earth at His upward ascension, He felt there was one
thing He just had to mention.

"Go into the world and tell them it's true That I love them all - Just
like I love U."

So many great people are spelled with a U, Don't they have a right to
know JesUs too?

It all depends now on what U will do,He'd like them to know, But it
all starts with U.

Don Bosco said about Sodalities:
“They are the keys to piety, safeguards of morals, sustainers of religious and ecclesiastical vocations."

Chat with God


God: Hello. Did you call me?                                                 
Me: Called you? No… who is this?                                            
God: This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat.            
Me: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something..                                                         
God: What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.                                
                                                            
Me: Don't know. But I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the time.                                                   
God: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.

Called to Radiate the Word of Truth

Popes Message for the World Mission Day

Pope Benedict XVI, on January 6th, on the solemnity of the feast of the Epiphany, announced the theme for this year’s World Mission Day as ‘Called to Radiate the Word of Truth.’ He said, “This year the celebration of World Mission Day has a very special meaning. The 50th anniversary of the beginning of the Second Vatican Council and of the opening of the Year of Faith and of the Synod of Bishops on the theme of the New Evangelization contribute to reaffirming the Church's desire to engage with greater courage and zeal in the missio ad gentes so that the Gospel may reach the very ends of the earth.” Taking inspiration from the Holy Father’s message, here are some of the important aspects to live this theme in our day to day life.

Mission: a Challenge to the Salesians of South Asia


Today there is an increasing awareness in the Church of the declining interest at the global level to evangelize. In fact the Church acknowledges that missionary activity especially directed to the nations (ad gentes) the proclamation of the Gospel is relevant also for immense section of the non Christian religions. Jesus Christ gave his disciples the mandate to proclaim the gospel and make disciples of all nations (Mt. 28; 18-20). The church is mindful of the Lord’s command to preach the gospel to every creature (Mt;16-15) takes zealous care to foster the mission. The mission of Christ the Redeemer which is entrusted to the church is still far from completion. In fact the number of those who do not know Christ and do not belong to the church is constantly on the increase. Hence an ever greater commitment to evangelization is imperative for all and we ought to reject all excuses which might deflect us from evangelization.
