Blessing of the Image of St. John Bosco

Our patron Saint for this school year is St. John Bosco. During our first day of school activities, Father Dailey blessed an image of St. John Bosco's dream "The Flood and the Raft." To ask for his intercession, students will pray a prayer to St. John Bosco each day during their classroom morning prayers. Students were encouraged to follow St. John Bosco's formula for sanctity: first, be happy; second, study and pray; third, do good to everyone."
Prayer to St. John Bosco
O Saint John Bosco, who loved the Blessed Virgin, Mary Help of Christians, taking her as your Mother and Guide, and becoming her apostle, pray for us that, inspired by your example, we may grow in true and enduring love for this sweetest of mothers, and may thus win her powerful protection in life and especially at the hour of our death.
