Salesian Literature

If there is one message in particular that Francis de Sales

preached to Christians of his day, it is this:

All are called to holiness.

​

All are called – not just monks, cloistered nuns and a few spiritual athletes

who are capable of rigorous fasts, long vigils and harsh austerities.

No, holiness is not restricted to these few who are privileged

with extraordinary physical, intellectual and moral capacities.

 

It is everyone's concern, everyone's destiny.
