DSM Logo
This logo is not just a symbol rather it is an expression of theological statement of faith, love, and mission. The logo encapsulates the following:
1. 'Globe' symbolizes the universal call to evangelization.
2. 'Dove with Olive Branch' symbolises the Salesian spirit of peace and love.
3. 'Fountain Pen Nib' symbolises' the commitment to teaching and guiding souls to God.
4. 'Bold DSM Text' symbolises the firmness of faith and missionary zeal.
Together, these elements manifest the very essence of De Sales and Mermier’s vision and mission, deeply rooted in love, patience, education, and evangelization.
Thus, the DSM logo envisions the theology of Salesian missionary spirituality, enabling us all to embrace our call to holiness and service to God and humanity.
Origin of this Website
This website was originally developed by Fr. Wilson Abraham MSFS in October 2020, as his personal website with the name “FACTS" (Fransalian Animation Centre for Technology and Spirituality). Seeing the volume of Resources on Spirituality, especially on "DeSales and Mermier," the then Director of DSM requested him to make it the Digital Platform of DSM. This was done in October 2022 by changing the name from ‘FACTS’ to ‘DSM.’ Therefore, among the 900+ pages on this website, you might find somewhere within it, a few pages or some attachments with the name FACTS! Please ignore them or inform the webmaster to correct them.
