We would rather choose death than sin!
We:
1. Do our duties well
2. Are always cheerful
3. Put Jesus and Mary as our closest friends
4. Love one another
5. Go to confession often
6. Recieve Communion as much as possible
I am a Salesian Priest who has served in many ministries in the New Rochelle Province of St. Philip: parishes, vocations,schools, formation, youth centers, and now mission animation, support, and development. I seek to live the words of Psalm 100 "To Serve the Lord with Gladness" and the words of Don Bosco "Give me the youth of today and I'll conquer the world for Christ."
How did you hear of the Salesians?
I first heard of the Salesians through a vocation exhibit, the Salesian Bulletin, and the St. Dominic Savio Classroom Club.
What do you think God is calling you to?
To be a sign and bearer of God's love especially for the young and the poor.
Happy b'day dear Fr Mark! Don't worry if you never know me! I heard about you from my confreres (from Hyderabad, India) who visited the US for the MCP last year. I am Br Castilino, the Province Secretary.
I see that today is your b'day, so thought of dropping in this small greeting and a sincere prayer too! Have a nice day!

turn me around
becking me
tearing me
to give me greed
only will that has serviced onto me
this i must seek
the embrace of impossibilitys
it is more then i can imagine
its on the facts of reason
only the father of my needs
can breeze the air threw me
letting me breath
i cant over do it this time
im here for god
not for the sins of everyone
he just wants me to die for you
i agree
aslong as when my time comes
i will be set free
from this hell
that cripples me
all these thoughts of possibilitys
i cant forgive the fact
they have pushed it over on me
yelled at me
that i cant be
but god is with me
can you see the facts i place on the bed
from your soul to your body to your head
what if you were left behind
only true death puts us aside
i must die for all of you
who has came unto the feelings of moments
i cross this line
i will embrace his pain threw his eyes
i will help you face what is soon to come
the true death that i await to begin
im here for him
be happy for my brother is not so forgiving
jesus will sing on to the ears of evil
killing them with our fathers voice
what is starting with me
will end in glory
i have been choosen to brush his feet
while i await the crown
im sucking in all my sins
he is ripping in threw my skin
im boarding the hell with in
im set free
from yall and your hell
you seek for nothing
only monkeys killing
i have found love in his words
his way
i dont care
im here for him and ill beg to be able to come home
then i will be set free
from this hell
be by him again
be free from all the killing
never hurt a soul physicaly
only test for the life set for me
im grown
from this make believe reality
this is just a test
it has to be other wise
i cant go on
killing draining all my patience
im paralized
rocks throw at me
waiting the birth of a new beginning
but im still right here giving blood
and still keeping faith
i will soon be home
im coming home
