Scented candle featuring an image of Saint Brother André

A palo santo scented candle presented in an elegant black glass jar with a wooden lid, adorned with an image of Saint Brother André, the patron saint of caregivers in Canada. Its warm, woody scent creates a soothing atmosphere conducive to contemplation, prayer, or simply a moment of relaxation.

The contrast between the black glass and the wooden lid gives it a simple, modern, and elegant look that blends easily into any decor. With its image of Saint Brother André, this candle is also a beautiful devotional item and a meaningful gift for someone who supports and cares for others.

On the back, you’ll also find the “Caregiver’s Prayer,” presented in French and English, to accompany moments of prayer and reflection:

PRIÈRE DE L'AIDANT(E)

'' Comme des générations d'aidants naturels l'ont fait avant moi. Saint frère André, je viens vous consulter à mon tour. Soyez mon saint patron et mon guide. Donnez-moi la force d'accompagner mon aidé(e). Éclairez-moi dans les décisions qui le (la) concerne. Montrez-moi à le (la) soulager avec compassion. Afin que tout se passe dans la dignité. Saint frère André, je vous confie ma fatigue. Rendez-moi résilient(e) quand la maladie persiste. Aidez-moi à confier mon aidé(e) à Dieu. Enseignez-moi le juste don de soi par amour. Afin d'éviter l'épuisement et l'isolement. Soyez mon saint patron et mon guide.

Amen ''

PRAYER OF THE CAREGIVER

'' As generations of caregivers have done before me, Saint Brother André, I am coming to seek you out:
be my patron saint and guide. Give me the stamina I need to accompany the person under my care.
Clear my mind when it is time to make important decisions. Show me how to bring compassionate relief,
so that everything takes place with respect. Saint Brother André, I surrender my fatigue to you.
Please give me resilience in the face of long-term illness and suffering. Help me to place my ailing relative in God’s hands. Teach me to give of myself out of love, free from self-interest. Safeguard me from exhaustion and isolation: be my patron saint and guide.

Amen ''
