ST. DOMINIC SAVIO YOUTH COMMUNITY
"Growing Together in Grace in the Community and in the Ministry"
PATRON SAINTS
St. Dominic Savio (Italian: Domenico Savio; April 2, 1842 – March 9, 1857)[5])[6] was an Italian adolescent student of John Bosco. He was studying to be a priest when he became ill and died, possibly from pleurisy.[7]
His teacher, Saint John Bosco had very high regard for his student, and wrote a biography of his young student, The Life of Dominic Savio. This volume, along with other accounts of him, were critical factors in his cause for sainthood. Despite the fact that many people considered him to have died at too young an age - fourteen - to be considered for sainthood, he was considered eligible for such singular honour on the basis of his having displayed "heroic virtue" in his everyday life.[8] He is the only saint of his age group, which includes Maria Goretti and Ponticus of Lyons[9], who was declared to be a saint not on the basis of his having been a martyr, but on the basis of having lived what was seen as a holy life. He was canonised a Saint on June 12, 1954 by Pope Pius XII,[10], making him the youngest non-martyr to be canonised in the Catholic Church.[11]

ABOUT CCR
Catholic Charismatic Renewal (CCR) is a movement within the Catholic Church emphasizing the release of more of the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit in a continuing and New Pentecost for all Catholics; the aim is to have the Renewal become part of the experience of all Catholics and not simply remain the experience of just one group or segment of Catholics. Worship is characterized by vibrant Masses, as well as prayer meetings featuring prophecy and sometimes glossalia, or "speaking in tongues." This movement is based on the belief that certain charisms (a Greek word for gifts), bestowed by the Holy Spirit, such as the abilities to speak in tongues and to heal (which Christians generally believe existed somehow in the early Church as described in the Bible) should still be practiced today.
Gift from the Holy Spirit
"Wisdom, word of knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophesy, discernment, tongues and interpretation of tongues." - 1 Corinthians 12:7-11
"But the Fruits of the Holy Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Long suffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness, Temperance; against such there is no law." - Galatians 5:22-23
Spiritual Goal
You shall love the Lord your God with you whole heart, with your whole soul, and with all your mind'
This is the greatest all first commandments. The second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbour as yourself." - Matthew 22:37-38
"For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, imprison and you visit me." - Matthew 25:35-40
Come and see the fruits that bring to everyone.
"I am the way, the truth and the light; no one goes to the Father except by me." - John 14:6
Finally, "My prayer is that your love for each other may increase more and more and never stop improving your knowledge and deepening your perception so that you may always recognize what is best. This will help you to become pure and spotless and prepare for the Day of Christ when you will reach the perfect goodness which Jesus Christ produces in us for the glory and praise of God" - Philippians 1:9-11/St. Paul
