Assassination Attempts on St. John Bosco | Ep. 1

You may already be familiar with Saint John Bosco, a 19th century priest who ran an oratory for boys in Turin, but did you know anti-catholic sects made many attempts on his life?

Watch the video of the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjUJgIDS7Tk

This video will tell two stories of assassination attempts made on one of the finest men that ever lived.

But why would this happen? Why were the masons so intent on murdering Don Bosco? Why did they hate him so much?

These questions are what this entire YouTube channel seeks to answer. Saint John Bosco was a jewel in our history, a model of piety and a ferocious warrior against the enemies of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. We’ll attempt to analyze all the facets of his pious life.

Prophet, diplomat, miracle worker, counselor, visionary, devotee of Our Lady, prolific writer, role model for wayward boys, founder of the Salesians, priest, rock of scandal, warrior against heresies…

I could go on and on, but it all can be summed up by the phrase “Christianus alter Christus” -- he was Christ-like. He’s the patron saint of apprentices, editors, publishers, schoolchildren, magicians, and wayward children.

An attempt was made by the Salesians to document his daring deeds for Christ, which resulted in 19 large volumes and are the primary source material for our channel.

He’s a veritable font of interesting anecdotes and inspiring stories, so please subscribe so that you won’t miss any of our videos.

The more we learn of and admire the saintly aspects of Don Bosco the more we’ll be like him in our own lives.
