(Port Chester, NY – October 1) – On Tuesday, September 16, St. John Bosco Parish hosted new families beginning their faith formation with the Don Bosco Religious Education Program. The parish’s family activity is centered around “Jesus in the Eucharist,” and its pastor, Fr. Franco Pinto, SDB, gave catechesis to the families. Fr. Franco encouraged the parents to be the leaders in their children’s faith formation and journey and to center their lives on Jesus.

St. John Bosco Parish welcomes its new families and offers its prayers and support to them throughout their faith journey. The parish entrusts all its families to our Blessed Mother, Mary Help of Christians, and asks for her prayers and protection.
