Welcome to "Salesian Gifts", Our Visitation Network Blog

With great joy and in a spirit of anticipation for good things to come, we are entering the world of the "blog!"This 21st century means of communication will enable us to be in touch with one another in the world of our Visitation schools and to share some of the riches of our Salesian spirituality as well as the activities of our local Visitation school network committees in wholly new ways.

As an "oldtimer" I have been blessed by the assistance of our young Sister Anne Elizabeth in setting up this blog and in introducing me to its possibilities. I will be passing this information on to the National Visitation Salesian Network Committee so we can all activate this new means of communication.

We will be sharing spiritual thoughts in the Salesian tradition as well as notices about new efforts to promote this gift aomng all members of our school communities, our Salesian family and anyone who happens to connect with our blog.

Our title,"Salesian Gifts," has been selected because we wish this blog to be a means of spreading our Salesian spirituality far and wide. It is truly a gift to be shared because of its universal appeal to all age groups and to people in all walks of life. As Elisabeth Stopp has said so convincingly, Salesian Spirituality is "inspired common sense."

We hope that our readers will be intrigued by this description of our spirituality and want to learn more about it. Once again, we welcome you to our blog "Salesian Gifts!"
