Read the Saint story with your child and have them color the picture below

St. John Bosco

Giovanni (John) was born to poor parents in a little town in Italy.

His father died when he was two years old, leaving his mother to care for him and his two brothers.

In 1841, he became a priest. John had a special place in his heart for young boys, especially those who had no family or home.

To capture their attention, he learned how to juggle and do tricks. His activities led to an invitation to Mass.

He showed a kindness and a zeal for his faith that the boys had never known.

John felt called to start an oratory (school) for boys to teach them how to live the path of virtue by faith with games.

He also started a printing shop, so they could learn a valuable trade. The oratory increased in large numbers very quickly.

John founded the Salesians: a group of priests and religious dedicated to working with youth. Salesians are now in over 130 countries.

St. John Bosco, Pray for us.

Connection Questions:

What are some ways we can put faith into action?

You can ask yourself: "What would Jesus do?" Put others first before ourselves, stand up for what is right, forgive someone who has hurt you, be a friend to those who seem lonely, speak the truth at all times, participate and pay attention at Mass, give generously to God and others of your time, talent and treasures, etc.

What would Jesus want you to do in the following situations:

Closing Prayer:

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 

Jesus, please give us more zeal to live out our faith and to put our prayers into action. May we continue to experience You in our hearts as we learn about prayer and how it can change our lives and the lives of others. Amen.
