Father Casimir Wyszynski

224 A PPENDIX tinue to pour into their hearts the zeal and wisdom by which to render help to the poor of the contemporary world, especially to people sunk in various addictions, to those relegated to the mar- gins of society, to the forgotten and to those held in contempt. May they know how to bring the Good News to them with great haste, and may they someday see your Fatherly Face. O God, who desires to include every one of us in your provi- dential plan of salvation, I pray You, enlighten the Congregation of Marian Fathers that they may know how to discern the signs of the times and courageously go where the need is greatest and the conditions most difficult. May they know how to undertake with humility all sorts of tasks in the Church, even if that would require following the road of hardships, suffering and adversity. I ask of you, O God, new and holy vocations to the Congrega- tion of Marian Fathers, that theMarian charismof lifemay enrich the Church in the various niches of the world. O Lord, send forth courageous and zealous men that, in love with Christ and the Church they may know how to lead others efficaciously to You. And for those already called, support and strengthen them in the life they have chosen, that no deceptions of the world may draw them away from You, Who alone are Goodness and Beauty. Bring it about that the beauty of theMarian charismmay shine on the face of the Church and radiate to all who are on their pil- grim way to You and are filled with longing for You. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
