(ANS – Rome) – The Sacred Heart of Jesus Basilica in Rome is preparing to receive, on Saturday, 3 February 2024, over 400 religious from all over the world who have come to Rome to participate in a pilgrimage "on the path of peace" – aimed at renewing the commitment of religious for reconciliation and peace. The pilgrimage will start and end at the Salesian Basilica of the Sacred Heart, and will be carried out on the sidelines of the 28th World Day of Consecrated Life (2 February 2024) and as part of a broader process of preparation of consecrated men and women for the Holy Year of 2025.

(ANS – Rome) – The Feast of Don Bosco is a day of celebration in all Salesian communities around the world. Great celebrations were also held at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Rome, a church Don Bosco strongly and which he had built at the expense of his own health. The climax of the feast came with the solemn afternoon Eucharistic concelebration, presided over by the titular Cardinal of the Basilica, Cardinal Giuseppe Versaldi.

(ANS - Rome) - On Sunday 28th January 2024, the Fourth Sunday of Ordinary Time, Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, Rector Major of the Salesians of Don Bosco, blessed and inaugurated the new Chapel of the Word of God at the Salesian Headquarters - which has undergone extensive renovation work in recent months. It was a very simple and at the same time a meaningful rite, during which the community of the Salesian Headquarters could rejoice in the dedication of this space for prayer, and a space for fraternal communion at the table of the Divine Word.

(ANS - Rome) - In view of Jubilee 2025, which will involve the whole Universal Church, the Salesian Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Rome is preparing to become a nerve centre both for international devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and for men and women religious from all over the world. As a prelude to the Jubilee 2025, the Salesian community that animates the basilica, the heart of the Congregation in the Eternal City, prepares to welcome, the pilgrimage of about 400 consecrated men and women, from all over the world on Saturday 3rd February 2024.

(ANS – Rome) – In the year in which the entire Salesian Family focuses on Don Bosco's Dream at Nine Years of Age, many other small dreams are arising in the Salesian world, carried out by those who call on him for the education and evangelisation of young people. This explains, for example, the new initiative that is being developed at Sacred Heart in Rome: the first Salesian Symphony Orchestra (OSS), a project, moreover, still in its embryonic phase, but which has already received the blessing and explicit support of Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, Rector Major of the Salesians.
