Talking Saints - Aloysius Gonzaga


Listen Later

On this feast of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga, Talking Saints hosts Laurie and Pete shared the life of this 16th and 17th century Italian Jesuit and patron of youth, whose spiritual awakening at age 7 caused him to renounce the royal courts and military prestige around him, for a higher calling.  As well, the hosts discuss his rigorous prayer life, and how much asceticism is too much asceticism?
 
Saint Aloysius Gonzaga, patron of youth and seminarians, pray for us!
