St. John Bosco

Picture

On The Grapevine 51

This is St. John (Don) Bosco. At the age of nine, God began to send him dreams by which He guided Him and encouraged Him on the path He had chosen for John. Pope Pius IX told him to write down and pay attention to those dreams - and they became a means of support through many obstacles. He spent his life ministering to poor and neglected boys with gentleness and kindness. He learned to juggle and do tricks to catch their attention, and then taught them about God and took them to Mass. He eventually founded the Salesian order. 

Not everyone was pleased with loud, ragtag bunch Father John Bosco surrounded himself with. Some "friends" decided to have him committed, and called for a carriage. They planned to trick him and drop him off at the asylum. However, Fr. Bosco caught wind of the plan, and wittily opened the carriage door to let his friends enter first. Once they were in, he slammed the door and shouted to the driver, "To the asylum, quick!"

St. John Bosco's Prayer to Our Lady, Help of Christians

Most Holy Virgin Mary, Help of Christians,
how sweet it is to come to your feet
imploring your perpetual help.
If earthly mothers cease not to remember their children, 
how can you, the most loving of all mothers forget me?
Grant then to me, I implore you, 
your perpetual help in all my necessities, 
in every sorrow, and especially in all my temptations.
I ask for your unceasing help for all who are now suffering.
 Help the weak, cure the sick, convert sinners.
Grant through your intercessions many vocations to the religious life. 
Obtain for us, O Mary, Help of Christians,
that having invoked you on earth we may love and eternally thank you in heaven.
