Make yourselves loved

“Make yourselves loved” were Don Bosco’s words to his sons, fully conscious of the winning edge in his life. He loved the boys and the boys knew that he loved them. This lived experience made them fall in love with him. Don Bosco would make any sacrifice for the boys and the boys would do anything for Don Bosco. This was a kind of magnetic bond where there is mutual love between them. If you want to win the world of tomorrow, you must win the youth of today and paradoxically, if you want to win the youth of today, you must first be won by them. This is what Don Bosco said: Make yourself loved and not feared. From this emerged his whole spirituality of the Preventive system. All of us are aware that love cannot be forced but it is a natural response to the love experience. Read More

Formation is the joyful acceptance of the gift of one’s vocation and its actualization at every moment of one’s life and in every situation. Formation is a grace of the Spirit, a personal attitude, an education for life. A Seminary is an institution where young people who are training to be priests/religious live in an atmosphere that is helpful to growth of the total person - in the emotional, social, intellectual, moral and spiritual dimensions. “The first Salesians,” our Constitutions say, “found their sure guide in Don Bosco. Living at the very heart of his community in action, they learned to model their own lives on his.” Read More
