Saint Damien of Moloka'i 1840-1889
God, our Father, we give thanks for Damien, our brother. Following Jesus, Your Son, he went to those afflicted with leprosy on Moloka'i, he became one of them even unto death; he showed them that You love them; he gave them back the pride of being human, and the hope of a future.
Therefore, we ask you; may we be resurrected by Your spirit to walk in the footsteps of Damien, to be animated by the same faith.
Open our eyes, open our hearts, that we might go to all those abandoned, ignored, forgotten. Obtain that through us they may discover who You are. Raise up men and women ready to follow the road he has walked. This is the prayer that we address to you, Father full of tenderness and love, You, our God, always and for all eternity. Amen.
