Using magic tricks to evangelize… we love St. John Bosco’s creativity! I mean… we make Catholic socks around here.
At a young age, John was captivated by circus performers and realized that if he could learn tricks, he could captivate others. He had a heart for the poor boys in the streets and used magic tricks to get their attention. He used to perform a trick where he turned three separate ropes into a single rope to illustrate the mystery of the Blessed Trinity. After each show he would recite a homily. He eventually founded the Salesians of Don Bosco, whose main focus is the care and education of children.
