Everyone is aware of ability Don Bosco to find real solutions to situations presented themselves to him as his work progressed. With great creativity, our father was always at the height of his time and bet on the forefront in many fields, also in regard to the media. In 1877, before the volume was taking on the project and the amount of helper (benefactors) that were adding one way or another to the Salesian Don Bosco thought raising a publication designed to last over time. This is the Salesian Bulletin.
The first time Don Bosco speaks publicly about his idea about the Bulletin that he understood was published on 7 February 1877 in the context of Conferences in San Francisco de Sales, whose recipients were cooperating, benefactors and friends of his work. Don Bosco announced
"It has been established for this purpose, print a newsletter that will be like the newspaper of the congregation, because there are many things that should be communicated to the called Cooperators. Be a periodic newsletter as a link between and Salesian Cooperators. "
months later Don Bosco had specifically begin publication in July the same year. There are difficulties were to be delayed until August. In November of that year, he named Don Bosco Don Bonetti (at that time Director of the house of Borgo S. Martino) first director of the Salesian Bulletin. The project was underway. The newsletter would be sustained economically by voluntary contributions from its readers. A miracle that would become evident much later in all areas in which the newsletter was developed.
The first General Chapter of the Congregation held in 1877 that discussed the Bulletin and in their deliberations, we read: "The Salesian Bulletin is a link between the Cooperators." And these raw and this conviction sets up one of the most successful publications in our history. The Bulletin will not be interrupted and pass from one nation to the congregation as extended. Always connected with the center, the Salesian Bulletin since its inception was universal. Today the Salesian Bulletin is published in 56 different editions, 29 languages \u200b\u200band runs in 135 countries worldwide.
Again Don Bosco teaches us to be bold. Once more our Father gives channel the creativity promoting a project in pursuit of sustainability. Once, the Holy of youth manages to his work can move forward and strengthen their family. By their fruits ye shall know them.
