About The Selesian Missions Office, Nigeria
The Salesian Missions Office is under the guidance of the African Nigeria-Niger Province. It is in Abuja, Nigeria, a residential city in the centre of Nigeria surrounded by kaduna, Nasarawa, Kogi and Niger; dominated by the iconic Zuma rock to its north. The Mission Office was established in 2025 by Africa Nigeria-Niger (ANN) province and Fr. Ambrose Onyeka Anene, as its first director, dedicates his life and love for the missions to advance.
The primary purpose of the Salesian Mission Office is threefold:
- To raise funds that support the works of nearly 38,000 missionaries including Salesian Priests, Brothers, Sisters and novices who assist poor youth and families in Nigeria and Niger Province. Funds are solicited mainly from direct appeals and through government grants. The Office also actively seeks sources of in-kind donations.
- To build awareness of the Salesians of St. John Bosco, the second largest order in the Catholic Church.
- To promote and encourage prayer and the principles of St. John Bosco, which are reason, kindness and religion. This is partly accomplished by embarking on pilgrimages and through our seminaries, that offer a path to religious life.
We are your hands reaching out to the abandoned, forgotten and destitute youth of the world.
We support the apostolate of Don Bosco and endeavour to find funds to support projects that address the plight of disadvantaged youth living in Nigeria whilst striving to spread the spirituality of Don Bosco and the apostolic aspect of Salesian work.
St. Francis de Sales, the zealous pastor and doctor of charity, inspired Don Bosco by his optimistic humanism and his complete dedication to the pastoral care of souls. In 1854 he declared: “The Madonna wishes that we begin a Society. I have decided to call ourselves Salesians. Let us put ourselves under the protection of St. Francis de Sales, so that we may obtain his extraordinary gentleness.”
