SPECIAL REPORTS
(ANS - Buenos Aires) - Twelve thousand kilometers separate the town of Boretto, in the Province of Reggio-Emilia, Italy, from the city of Bahia Blanca, in the southern part of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Like millions of families at the time, the "Zatti" emigrated to America in search of better living conditions. A new landscape, a new culture, and a new language welcomed a young Artemide, a saint who lived some of the dreams and hardships, the longings and joys, experienced by every migrant who leaves their homeland.
(ANS - Buenos Aires) - In view of the canonization of Artemide Zatti, SDB, we share some articles of reflection and investigation on some traits of the future saint, prepared by the Salesian Bulletin of Argentina, the country where "the relative of the poor" lived his entire Salesian life.
"There are as many stories of faith as there are believers, since each one gives himself with his own personality."

(ANS – New Rochelle) - Salesian Missions, the U.S. development arm of the Salesians of Don Bosco, joins humanitarian organizations and countries around the globe in honoring the International Day of Charity celebrated each year on Sept. 5. The date was chosen by the General Assembly of the United Nations to commemorate the anniversary of the passing of Mother Teresa of Calcutta. She received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 “for work undertaken in the struggle to overcome poverty and distress, which also constitute a threat to peace.”
