(ANS - Rome) - The basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Rome is an oasis of peace to pray, enjoy the sacrament of forgiveness and the Eucharist for many people, also due to its location, adjacent to the city's central train station. The church has always been entrusted to the Salesians, as it was built by Don Bosco himself on the mandate of Pope Leo XIII. On the sidelines of last Friday's patronal feast, with the Mass presided by the Rector Major, Fr Ángel Fernández Artime, we asked Fr Javier Ortiz, from the community that animates the parish, and Fr Guido Novella, parish priest, to comment on the celebrations and on the meaning of this Salesian presence in the heart of the city.
