O holy protector of those who are in greatest need,O you who shine as a star of hope
St. Eugene De Mazenod,Patron Saint of Dysfunctional Families,
I adore You, O my God,and I love You with all my heart.
Embrace each day with courage and kindness.
I stand at the perimeter, never seen, never heard. When I am noticed, they call me names:
My soul glorifies the Lord,Henceforth all ages will call me Blessed.
Lord God Almighty,look upon Your Servant St. Stanislaus,
Angel-guardians of men,spirits and powers we sing,whom our Father has sent,

God of creation, we thank You for the awesome beauty of the land and sea,
