31 January - Don Bosco's Feast Day

 

Saint John Bosco, commonly known as Don Bosco, is commemorated on his feast day, which falls on January 31st. This day is celebrated by the Catholic Church and those inspired by Don Bosco's life and work.

Saint John Bosco (1815–1888) was an Italian Roman Catholic priest, educator, and writer who dedicated his life to the welfare and education of poor and disadvantaged youth, particularly in Turin, Italy. He founded the Salesians of Don Bosco, a religious congregation focused on education and mission work.

Don Bosco's feast day serves as a time for reflection on his contributions to education, youth ministry, and social welfare. Many educational institutions inspired by the Salesian tradition may organize special events, prayers, and activities to honor his memory on this day.
