Novena to Don Bosco - Day 8

Day Eight - Mary Mother of God

Don Bosco dedicated his every project and plan to Mary Help of Christians.
Lord, may the silent presence of your mother bless and guide us on our journey through life.
At the Visitation Mary made the first move to reach out to her cousin and in that generous act the presence of God within her was awakened and recognised. In the same way we are called to make the first
move in welcoming others.
May we be ready to recognise the movement of the Spirit within other people.

Hail Mary ...
Saint John Bosco, pray for us.
