St. Aloysius Gonzaga Comments
St. Aloysius was born in Castiglione, Italy. The first words St. Aloysius spoke were the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary.

I named my first born child after Fr.Aloysius Schwartz,the founder of our school, later on,my husband and I was surprised to know that his birthday is exactlly the same date of St Aloysius' feast day. I am so thankful for this coincidence.May St. Aloysius and Fr.Al guide him always.
I am desperately looking for the DVD of the Life of St. Aloysius for the last couple of months but still could not get. If you can help me to purchase the DVD of the life of St. Aloysius, I am very much thankful to you.
May God bless you.

St. Aloysius is very interesting to me to research. My grandfather was named Aloysius and I named my son after him. It is amazing to be able to research the saint behind that name. I am told time and time again that it is such a neat name!! It is very meaningful to me
the story of st. aloysius was very touching and inspirable.
god bless!
I am seeking Saints of Burundi because I am working on a Circle of Prayer with a number of v. responsible Burundian Catholics at home and away from home - diplomats and exiles to whom I have ministered for many years as an Anglican Priest before becoming Catholic.
There are three areas of prayer with which I am curently concerned:
1.
a. Those suffering from AIds and HIV.
b. Those who care for them.
c Those who have political responsibility in this area.
2.
a. Burundian Exiles in Europe, espcially those who have left the Catholic Church.
b. For those promoting a more focussed Catholic concern for them.
For a group of people, not least my Burundian Foster Chidren who have returned home to to work for Peace and Development and to attract Interest in Tourism, and for Ministers and Dilplomats who support them.
TO WHICH SAINTS MIGHT WE APPEAL FOR PRAYER AND INTERCESSION./
Attention was made to The Holy Mother of God only in the last few days; the message I received was unclear; is She to be recognised as Patron, perhaps?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
