Memorial of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga

Reflection

“In the twilight of our life, we shall be judged according to love.” –St. Aloysius Gonzaga

Prayer

Love eternal,

We have all lived enough to have regrets from the past, as we think of the love that we failed to extend when we had the chance. Humbly we ask for you to somehow make up for our missed opportunities. And gladly we thank you for trusting us still, today and each day, with new opportunities to put love into action with all those you place in our way. Like St. Aloysius Gonzaga, make us more holy by perfecting our freedom to love. For the sake of all those we encounter today, just as they are and just as they need, free us to be agents of world-changing love. Amen.

Call to Action

Consider that the measure of my life’s success is my love for others. Do I need to change
some priorities?
