By Gretchen Filz, The Catholic Company - St. Don Bosco is also known for his many prophetic dreams which you can read about here. His most famous dream regards future troubles for the Church and is known as the Prophecy of the Two Columns. In his words, here is the dream: "Try to picture yourselves with me on the seashore, or, better still, on an outlying cliff with no other land in sight. The vast expanse of water is covered with a formidable array of ships in battle formation, prows fitted with sharp spear-like beaks capable of breaking through any defense. All are heavily armed with cannons, incendiary bombs, and firearms of all sorts - even books - and are heading toward one stately ship, mightier than them all. As they try to close in, they try to ram it, set it afire, and cripple it as much as possible.
