Peace and blessings in the name of Jesus Christ. Here is a prayer I have authored in honor of Saint Carlos which has obtained the blessing of the Archbishop-Metropolitan. -Fr. Brian McIntyre, SCR
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
Saint Carlos,
Our patron and apostle to those who are rejected and those who are overlooked, you bore your cross for Christ, renouncing comfort for the cause of the common people. You turned from the kingdom of man to do the work of Christ; you spoke out on behalf of the oppressed and were persecuted for your sanctity. You recognized creation as coming from the hand of God, given to us His people and equated the abuse of land and resources as a vile act against humanity and God Himself. You denounced wealth gained from the exploitation of human beings and renounced ecclesiastical abuses, making you a true bishop of the people.
I pray that you may rest in the peace of Christ until the awaited judgment day cometh
