Don Bosco School of Theology

Don Bosco School of Theology The Don Bosco Schoo (DBCS) at Paranaque City, was established in 1972 to house the Salesian students of theology. In 1983 it opened its own school of theology.
(5)

We are a SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY & MINISTRY specialized in teaching the faith (Catechetics), guiding the young (Youth Ministry) assisting families (Family and Life). Four years later, it merited affiliation with the Faculty of Theology of the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome, thus empowering DBST to grant the ecclesiastical degree Bachelor in Sacred Theology. Many students, local, and foreign, fr

om other religious institutes came to enroll. In 1996 the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) authorized DBCS to confer the Master's Degree in Theology (MATh) and in Pastoral Ministry (MPM) formerly known as Religious Studies (MRS). Many religious and lay people came to take advantage of this theological, spiritual, and pastoral formation. DBST also offers Diploma and Certificate courses in Catechetics, Youth Ministry, Family and life, Spirituality, Consecrated Life, and Theology for the Laity. Other short courses and seminars on various current topics are being organized for updating and enrichment. Even high school graduates may enroll in some of these courses. Today, it stands to serve the same noble purpose. Under the new name: Don Bosco School of Theology.

Hindi hadlang ang ating nakaraan para tawagin tayo ng Diyos.

Saint Mary Magdalene’s life is a powerful witness to the transforming love of Jesus. As the first to encounter the Risen Lord and proclaim His Resurrection, she reminds us that we are all called to become a witness of hope and the Good News.

Today, on the Feast of Saint Mary Magdalene, may her courage, faith, and unwavering devotion inspire us to recognize Christ in our own lives and boldly share His love with others.

What does θυσία (thysía) really mean?

More than simply "giving something up," thysía points to an offering made out of love. True sacrifice isn't just about what we lose, it's about freely giving ourselves to God and to others in love.
