A Friend to Young People in Ireland, A Focus on a Better World
Salesians Ireland is this country’s Province of the international religious order known as the Salesian Society of Don Bosco. Worldwide we as a religious order have over 16 000 members – Brothers and Priests, working in 134 countries.
Wherever we go in the world, and no matter the lives we touch, our mission and goal is the same: to be a friend to all young people, and to God.
Our mission
The Salesian Bulletin is published by the Salesians of Don Bosco as a means of communication and information about their work, especially for the young, at home and on the missions. It also contributes ideas to the religious and social issues of our times. Founded by St John Bosco in 1877, it is published in 57 different editions throughout the world, in a total of 31 languages.
