Strenne salesiane di don Ángel Fernández Artime” (Called to Love with Hope: Salesian Strennas of Fr Ángel Fernández Artime), which collects in a single volume, strenna messages and quotes from the Rector Major of the Salesians of Don Bosco, created a Cardinal by Pope Francis in 2023.

(ANS - Vatican City) - During the audience granted on Thursday, March 14, 2024, to Cardinal Marcello Semeraro, the Prefect of the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints, the Supreme Pontiff authorized the same Dicastery to promulgate the Decree concerning the miracle attributed to the intercession of the Venerable Servant of God Camillo Costa de Beauregard, a Diocesan Priest born in Chambéry (France) on February 17, 1841, and died there on March 25, 1910 - whose Cause is entrusted to the Salesian Postulation.

(ANS - Rome) – On Tuesday, 5 March 2024, the Holy See Press Office announced that the Holy Father Pope Francis has assigned to Cardinal Ángel Fernández Artime, SDB, the Rector Major of the Salesian Society of St. John Bosco, the titular See of Ursona, with archiepiscopal dignity, in view of his episcopal ordination scheduled for coming 20 April.

(ANS – Vatican City) – Pope Francis releases his prayer intention for March, asking for prayers for the martyrs of our day, and recalling a story he was told by a widowed Muslim man who recounted the martyrdom of his Christian wife as she defied terrorists. In the video, in which the Pope tells the poignant story of a woman martyr in our times, there is also a reference to Akash Bashir, a former pupil of Don Bosco and the first Servant of God in the history of the Church in Pakistan.

(ANS - Vatican City) - The entire universal Church is preparing for the Holy Year of 2025, a Jubilee year in which each person can realize and experience even more powerfully, that God's holiness is able to transform the life of every person. Although all the faithful will be able to receive the grace of the Jubilee in the myriad of initiatives that will be carried out in dioceses around the world, there will certainly be many pilgrims who will travel to Rome for the occasion, to meet the Successor of Peter. As in the past, the organizing committee of the Jubilee 2025 has planned specific moments to experience and celebrate the Jubilee pilgrimage in the various groups and social segments.
