St Aloysius Gonzaga Patron Saintv of our School and Parish
St. Aloysius was the eldest son of the Marquis Gonzaga, an Italian noble.  His father expected him to become a great soldier but Aloysius had other ideas.  He became a student with the Jesuit Order.  In 1591 a terrible plague broke out in Rome.  The Jesuits opened a hospital of their own and Aloysius helped to tend the sick.  He caught the plague and after much suffering died on June 21st, 1591.  


St. Aloysius Gonzaga was canonized on December 31, 1726, Rome, Italy by Pope Benedict XIII. His relics are entombed under the altar of Saint Ignatius Church in Rome. St. Aloysius is the Patron Saint of Youth.

Prayer:

O God,
The Giver of heavenly gifts,
Who in the angelic youth Aloysius dist unite a wonderful innocence of life with an equal spirit of penance:
grant through his merits and prayers, that we, who have not followed his innocence, may imitate his penance.
​Through our Lord.

Prayer Source: 1962 Roman Catholic Daily Missal
