God our Father,
you made Brother Gabriel Taborin
feel an intense compassion
for humanity’s shortcomings,
and of the culture of its time,
especially in children and young people,
and through Your Spirit, You gave him
an educational charism to build man up,
in his religious and social dimensions,
according to the Gospel;
give us the strength to continue his action today,
with the help of Mary and Joseph, educators of Jesus,
Your Son, who at Nazareth grew in age, wisdom and grace.
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
