Fr Chrys Saldhana, SDB speaking during the book launch thanked Fr. Godfrey D`Souza, SDB the Provincial of Mumbai Province. He thanked Fr. Joaquim Fernandes, SDB, Director of Tej-Prasarini, Don Bosco Communications for publishing the book with his professional and competent team. He emphasised that this book deals with a broad spectrum of topics connected with the life and work of the Salesians of Don Bosco. This book will have great value for the Salesians as a help to walk in the footsteps of our father and Founder Don Bosco. The book deals with various topics such as life of contemplation in prayer, ongoing formation, vocation ministry, responsibility in the ethical use of the media, building community and youth ministry. It also contains a few topics that are professedly Salesian, like the spirituality and educative method of Don Bosco, Salesian consecrated life in its two forms of Salesian priest and Salesian brother, the Salesian Superior and the Salesian Family. Each topic is a synthesis and therefore can be expanded or developed in a variety of ways. Ms Chrisann Misquitta meticulously edited the book. The illustrations were conceptualised by Mr Gilbert D`Souza and Mrs Shalini D`Souza and the typeset and design layout was co-ordinated by Mrs Surekha Gangurde. The Art Director, Mr William Fernandes, designed the cover and printed the book at Intouch Graphics printing press.
