The document discusses parallels between Ignatius of Loyola and contemporary times. It summarizes Ignatius' life, including being struck by a cannonball which led to his conversion, reading only two books in recovery which inspired him, and feeling a call to commit to something greater. It then discusses how youth today can emulate Ignatius by being sensitive to the signs of the times, volunteering and advocating for causes, articulating a vision for the future, and committing to nation building through education and civic forums.
