Abstract
The article is an attempt at presenting the spirituality and attitude of mercy in the life of St. John Bosco, the founder of the Society of St. Francis de Sales (the Salesians), in the perspective of the Holy Year of Mercy celebrated by the whole Church in the year 2015/2016. The first part of the article raises the issue of experiencing mercy from God and people by St. John Bosco. The second part discusses the ministry of mercy which the Saint performed as a priest as well as the Father and Teacher of the youth. The last part constitutes a quest for the topicality of mercy with regard to the contemporary process of upbringing children and youth in the Salesian charism established by St. John Bosco.
