When Saint John Bosco was 19 years old, he made friends with a boy named Louis Comollo at school. Don Bosco later wrote, “I can truly say that, thanks to him, I began to live as a real Christian.” However, because of his virtue, Louis was frequently attacked by bullies at school. Saint John Bosco defended him, once even fighting off several attackers. This was an admirable feat of strength and virtue, because he was protecting someone weaker than him. But how in the world did he win in a fight against so many people at once, while barely even breaking a sweat? We will hear all about his clever strategy in today's episode.

YES! My most favorite verse from Sirach. This hits close to home because I was myself betrayed after a 20 year friendship with someone who I thought was my closest friend. But God took pity on me and gave me a most holy friend in her place whose virtuous life was also an inspiration for me. Thank you Matthew for this story!! Have a blessed Tridiuum and Easter

Thank you so much for sharing a story about Louis Comollo. He is one of my favourite holy examples and I hope he will one day be canonized. It is also fascinating to see how holiness has nothing to do with temperament or personality, since two people of entirely different ones were able to become such close friends and edify each other in virtue. God bless.
