Admirable apostle of youth, founder of religious Congregations, catechist, educator, writer, and a light that shone brightly in our time, you know that one of the greatest powers today is the power of the Press.
Prompt editors to be always truthful and to work for the good of human beings, thus serving the greater glory of God. Amen.
Novena in Honor of St. John Bosco Father and Teacher of the Young
In need of special help, I appeal with confidence to you, Saint John Bosco, for I require not only spiritual graces, but also temporal ones, and particularly... (add your personal intentions here)
May you, who on earth had such great devotion to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and to Mary Help of Christians, and who always had compassion for those who were suffering, obtain from Jesus and His Heavenly Mother the grace I now request, and also a sincere resignation to the Will of God.
Pray the Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you.
You are all fair, O Virgin Mary; you never knew the stain of sin;
You are the glory of Jerusalem, you are the joy of Israel.
You are the great honor of our people, you are the advocate of sinners.
O Mary, Virgin most prudent, O Mary, Mother most merciful, pray for us,
Intercede for us with our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
~~ taken from "Prayers for Today," published by Leaflet Missal Co.
O God, Who didst raise up Saint John, Thy Confessor, to be the father and the teacher of the youth, and Who by him, with the help of the Virgin Mary, didst promote new families in Thy Church: grant, we beseech Thee, that inflamed by the same fire of love, we may win souls and serve Thee alone. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, world without end. Amen.
