Savio Hon – Back to Don Bosco: Da mihi Animas Response of Fr. Savio Hon Don Bosco Hall, Berkeley, Symposium July 20, 2007.

Don Bosco claimed that the motto Da mihi animas cetera tolle came from Francis de Sales, and we Salesians presume that this was the cherished phrase that the saintly Bishop of Geneva claimed for his own.

Il documento, che giunge ora a tutti i confratelli attraverso questa pubblicazione, ha come sottotitolo “Riflessione postcapitolare” e non “Documenti capitolari”, come abitualmente avveniva in passato.
