Don Bosco - AB ReEd & PasCom Chronicles

We reflect on today’s sermonette shared by Asp. Lester Jhon Rada.

“Mary shows us what true listening looks like, not just hearing what is happening, but being aware, present, and responsive to what is needed.” — Asp. Lester Jhon Rada

May today’s reflection inspire us to become more attentive to God’s voice and more present to the needs of others through the example of Mama Mary.

Mary, Help of Christians, pray for us!

Today marks the beginning of the Novena in honor of Mary Help of Christians Fiesta 2026.

As part of the 1st Day Novena, a sermonette reflection was shared by Nov. Mario Betinol on the theme:

“A Mother’s Love in Time of Difficulties: Looking at Things Through the Eyes of Faith”

“Even when we feel trapped, weak, or lost, God continues to work quietly in our lives through His grace and through the loving presence of Mama Mary.”
— Nov. Mario Betinol

May today’s reflection remind us to trust God more deeply and recognize His presence even in the ordinary moments of our lives.

Mary, Help of Christians, pray for us!

Is holiness in youth possible? Domenico Savio and Carlo Acutis

Two young men, two distant eras, a single passion: to live their friendship with God to the full. The history of the Church is studded with young people who, despite the simplicity of their daily lives, managed to achieve extraordinary spiritual maturity. Among them, Domenico Savio and Carlo Acutis stand out; two teenagers separated by more than a century but surprisingly close in heart and in their choices. Both discovered very early on that holiness is not an unattainable ideal, but a possible path even for those who experience school, friendship, and family just like any other boy. To compare their lives is to discover how the Gospel can be lived with the same intensity in Don Bosco's nineteenth century and in the digital age of the internet.
