Dear St. John Bosco, friend of the young and teacher in the ways of God, be with us as we strive to follow in your footsteps.  Inspire us with your creative methods and love for children, and help us to lead all the children in our care to the feet of Jesus.

We especially lift up those who are in spiritual danger and those who are farthest from Jesus and ask that our time with them would plant seeds which will bear tremendous fruit.

Make us aware of the privilege and responsibility of being messengers of the Gospel and representatives of Christ.  Help us to radiate the love and joy that we’ve experienced through our personal relationship with Jesus and help us to share that love with the children!
