Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2
St. John Bosco, January 31
"Everything and everyone is won by the sweetness of our words and works." ~ St. John Bosco

Blessed John Bosco
The picture interprets a life-changing dream that the saint had as a child of nine.
