As winter's grip tightens over the landscape, bringing frosty mornings, shorter days and the crunch of snow underfoot, we have the gift of Christmas in December. If you're struggling for gifts or religious Christmas cards for your loved ones, have a look at our bookshop for some ideas.

Last day for ordering in time for Christmas is Monday 16 December.

On Monday 10th June, the community in Bollington accepted the gift of a new picture of Don Bosco, in memory of Philomena and George Kehoe, the parents of Gerry Kehoe, for the Don Bosco Room at Savio House.

The picture also contains text explaining and commemorating the 'Dream at Nine', which the Salesian Family are remembering during its 200th anniversary.

The community gathered for a short evening prayer service during which we listened to Don Bosco's account of the Dream at 9, as described in the Memoirs of the Oratory, reflected on the words of 'Da mihi animas - Friend of the Young' and concluded with some prayers used during the Pilgrimage of the Relics of Don Bosco back in 2013.
