The other city

altra_citta_salesianiThe Salesians of Don Bosco, formally known as the Society of St Francis of Sales, are a Religious Congregation of men devoted to apostolic and missionary activity and to the many different works inspired by Christian charity, but especially the service of young people, in particular those who are poorer and disadvantaged.

Open to the cultural values of the lands in which they work, they try to understand them and become part of them so as to incarnate in them the message of the Gospel.


The needs of the young, of ordinary people, the desire to work with the Church and in her name, inspire and shape their concrete pastoral activity so as to bring about a more just world and one of greater fellowship.
