John Bosco was born in Italy in 1815. As a young boy he learned to juggle and do magic tricks.The children enjoyed watching him perform. As he entertained them he would have the children say the Rosary if they wanted to see more of his performance. After becoming a priest he opened a school for boys and started a religious order known as the Salesians to continue this important work. Reading this story can encourage us to follow in the footsteps of St John Bosco who devoted his life to teaching others about God.
