Remembering the Charism
Day 2

The charism remembered
so to live it anew—
   deSales
   deChantel
   Bosco
   Mazzarello—
       hearts resonating with the very heart of Jesus—
           a heart broken as bread
           poured out as wine
                 shared with all as Eucharist.

Compelled by this heart
   we launch into the deep
   and seek out the lost sheep of today’s pasture.

We bring the poor,
   the exploited,
   the lost into our loving embrace
   where the heart of Jesus
         beats a message of love in our own
         and answers the deepest longing
         of those he places in our care.

Surprises from the children of St. John Bosco School come is the form of confetti from the heavens.
