(ANS \u2013 Valdocco) – <\/strong> <\/em>In the historic Church of Saint Francis de Sales, a profound moment of faith and dedication unfolded as the Salesian family gathered for the solemn Delivery of Missionary Assignments<\/em>. This moving ceremony marked the beginning of a new chapter for dozens of new missionaries \u2013 SDBs and FMAs who have accepted the call to bring the Gospel and the Salesian charism to distant lands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presiding over the event was Fr. Stefano Martoglio<\/strong>, the Vicar of the Rector Major, who handed each missionary the precious letter of obedience \u2014 a symbol of trust, availability, and readiness to serve where the Congregation most needs them. The presence of the Rector Major<\/strong> and the Mother General of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians<\/strong> elevated the celebration, filling the church with warmth and encouragement as both shared heartfelt words of blessing and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One by one, the missionaries approached the altar as Fr. Martoglio called their names. Each received their assignment with visible joy and emotion, embodying the missionary spirit that has animated the Salesian tradition for generations. Representatives of missionary animation from different countries were also present, welcoming their future collaborators and strengthening the bonds that unite the Salesian world across languages and cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Daughters of Mary Help of Christians<\/strong> also took part in this meaningful event, receiving their own missionary assignments alongside their Salesian brothers. Together, they celebrated this shared mission in the very church where Don Bosco himself once prayed and celebrated Mass<\/strong> \u2014 a sacred space that continues to echo with his dream of a world transformed by faith and love for the young.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As hymns of thanksgiving rose and fraternal embraces were exchanged, the atmosphere brimmed with gratitude, joy, and hope. The evening became a vivid expression of missionary zeal \u2014 a testimony that Don Bosco\u2019s spirit continues to inspire new generations to go forth as signs and bearers of God\u2019s love<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For every missionary who received their assignment that evening, the journey has begun \u2014 a journey that transcends borders and embraces all peoples, fired by the same love that moved Don Bosco to send his first missionaries more than a century ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
