``I have seen. I have heard. I understand. I have come down ... Go, set my people free`` (Exodus, 3, 7-8) In a few seconds a terrifying earthquake put us on our knees. Apocalyptic catastrophe. Ruins. Deaths. Cries. Weeping. Dismay. Desolation. Silence. Rebellion. Darkness. Trauma. Misery. Desperation. Hands stretched out to each other. Hands stretched out to the Lord. ``I have seen. I have heard. I understand. I have come down ... Go, set my people free`` (Exodus, 3, 7-8)...

Today in India, particularly in Tamil Nadu, we celebrate the feast of the martyr, St. John de Britto, who changed his name to ``Arulànandar`` in Tamil. I hear that he changed his name to Tamil, and dressed himself as the ordinary itinerant monks (or saadhus) of the era. He learned Tamil very quickly and preached the Gospel in the remotest villages. He wanted to identify himself totally with the local populations and found that his white skin was a hindrance. So, reportedly, he wrote to his friends in Portugal and asked them whether they have some kind of ointment that could turn his skin to be more brownish so that he could completely resemble his people! What a spirit of Incarnation and inculturation!

God always uses poor means for the accomplishment of his designs. The same path was followed by Jesus of Nazareth (cf.

Our hearts are filled with gratitude as we look back at 2008, a year full of God`s blessings! Much has been accomplished by the hard work and sacrifices made by all of us. Let us thank God for having given us the strength to achieve great things for our beneficiaries in the past one year.
As we begin 2009, the Salesian Holy Year, I wish all of you God`s choicest blessings. May this year and all the different activities of this year help us go closer to our roots, to Don Bosco and his charism of Da Mihi Animas Cetera Tolle, as we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Salesian Congregation!
