The Heroic Aloysius

Patron Saint of Youth By Bartholomew O’Brien.

Aloysius was a real boy who could fence and ride a horse and even shoot a cannon! He was a real prince, both by birth and by nature. However, he wanted to serve no earthly king, but only the King of Kings. Thus he dedicated himself to God as a religious of the Society of Jesus. In taking care of sick during an epidemic in Rome he became ill and died at the age of twenty-three.
