Prayer to Saint Aloysius Gonzaga,
Patron of Youth
Dear Christian youth,
you were a faithful follower of Christ in the Society of Jesus.
You steadily strove for perfection while generously serving the plague-stricken.
Help our youth today who are faced with a plague of false cults and false gods.
Show them how to harness their energies and to use them for their own
and others' fulfillment—which will redound to the greater glory of God.
Amen.
