HERITAGE WEEK

Beginning with the 40th anniversary of DeSales University (2005-2006), the annual Patron's Day celebration has been expanded to a week of activities honoring the legacy of St. Francis de Sales as it has been carried on in the tradition of Salesian Christian Humanism.

The celebrations take place during the week (Sunday through Thursday) in which the feast day of St. Francis de Sales (January 24th) falls in the calendar.  If the feast day occurs on a weekend, the following week will be chosen for the celebrations.

More detailed information is provided on the web pages linked below.
