- Charles de Foucauld (1858-1916) is a fascinating and influential spiritual figure. He wanted to imitate Jesus; specifically, he wanted to imitate “the hidden life of the poor and humble workman of Nazareth.” As a young man, Charles lived a worldly life, but after a dramatic conversion he lived for God alone. In his hermitage in the Sahara Desert, Charles became the “universal brother” to everyone.
Charles’ life is an inspiration to the Little Sisters of Jesus and Mary and the ministry of the Joseph House.
And now he will be Saint Charles de Foucauld

Just an "addendum" of sorts, for those tempted to think of de Foucauld as a "masonic saint" (for his viewpoint on the common brotherhood of men), Rev. Fr. R. F. Clarke (a 19th-century Jesuit priest whose writings & meditations are prolific) had an apt meditation on humans created in God's image & likeness:
When we call God "Our Father," we are necessarily reminded of the common kinship of all men. Our bodies are all made after one type, and that type is a reflection of the immaterial principle which dwells within. Hence the body of a man shares to some extent the dignity of his soul. We owe to our own bodies, and to those of all other men, a respect that is in no way owed to the bodies of the lower animals. Do I remember in all my actions the reverence due to my own body, and to the bodies of others, by reason of their being the noblest work of God in the material order, and being all destined by Him to immortal life?
But if our bodies have a certain dignity, our souls have one immeasurably greater. They are all stamped with a likeness to God that gives to each member of the human family a sort of God-like dignity. The soul of one little child is of more importance than all the souls of the lower animals together. If any word or act of mine is of a nature to injure the soul of any, even the lowest and humblest, I thereby provoke the anger of our common Father in Heaven. My brother's blood cries out to God for vengeance.
Our common brotherhood under God our Father also teaches us that God destines us to form one happy family in Heaven. He desires to see us united there before His throne, "a great multitude which no man can number, of all nations and tribes, and peoples and tongues" (Apoc. vii. 9). Do I bear in mind this exalted dignity to which God destines every one of His children on earth?
Father, I surrender to you, Please Use Me As You Like You. Father Use Me As Chi, I Also Thank You. You Are Always Ready, You Accept All. As long as You Will Do In Me And In Every Creation You Create, Well, Father, I Want No More. I Gave My Soul To Father. I Give My Soul To You, My God, With All My Love, For I Love You, Because Love Motivates Me To Dedicate Myself To You, Motivates Me To Give Myself To You Father's Hand, No Comparison, With An Unlimited Confidence, For You Are Your Father. Amen. (Lạy Cha, Con Phó Mặc Con Cho Cha, Xin Dùng Con Tùy Sở Thích Cha. Cha Dùng Con Làm Chi, Con Cũng Xin Cảm Ơn. Con Luôn Sẵn Sàng, Con Đón Nhận Tất Cả. Miễn Là Ý Cha Thực Hiện Nơi Con Và Nơi Mọi Loài Cha Tạo Dựng, Thì, Lạy Cha, Con Không Ước Muốn Chi Khác Nữa. Con Trao Linh Hồn Con Về Tay Cha. Con Dâng Linh Hồn Con Cho Cha, Lạy Chúa Trời Của Con, Với Tất Cả Tình Yêu Của Lòng Con, Vì Con Yêu Mến Cha, Vì Lòng Yêu Mến Thúc Đẩy Con Phó Dâng Mình Cho Cha, Thúc Đẩy Con Trao Trọn Bản Thân Về Tay Cha, Không So Đo, Với Một Lòng Tin Cậy Vô Biên, Vì Cha Là Cha Của Con. Amen.)
