Abstract

In education, St. John Bosco (1815 -1888) drew attention to the harmonious growth of man. Among the proposed measures, the Sacraments of Penance and the Eucharist occupy a fundamental place. By breaking with sin, the first constitutes a means for restoring communion with God. A key role in this process is played by repentance, confession and the resolve to improve. Extremely important is the person of the confessor, who in the name of Christ forgives sins. The Eucharist serves to maintain communion with God. He, as food working in the juvenile soul, bestows on the youth the strength to overcome any difficulties. He fills them with a light and power for the inner transformation of their wills towards seeking good. Jesus shapes the soul of a young person because he transforms the person who accepts Him into Himself.
