The back of Cathi's Youth Club Mmebership Card, and the prayer.
CYO PRAYER O Lord Jesus Christ, the divine Youth of Nazareth, I salute you! As a CYO member I take You dear Jesus, for my model. Grant that as am American youth of today, I may have the courage to follow You, and thus "grow in wisdom, and age, and grace with God and men. Bless me, O Jesus that, I may be Your devoted young apostle--a promoter of charity, a fighter for justice, a crusader for the Church, a follower of authority, and explorer of know- ledge, a trainer in self-discipline, and a champion of purity. As a soldier of Christ and a child of Mary, I stand ready to serve You, O Divine Youth of Nazareth. Imprimatur: Alexander M. Zaleski Vic. Gen. Detroiten October 7, 1958 |
