O Saint John Bosco, Father, Teacher, and Friend of Youth,
you have labored so much for the salvation of souls:
teach me to be patient and gentle as I seek the good of my own soul and the souls of my neighbor.
Three great loves gave purpose and meaning to your earthly life:
help me deepen my own reverence to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament,
devotion to Mary Help of Christians, and loyalty to our Holy Father the Pope.
