Marie-Eugène de l'Enfant-Jésus
Marie-Eugene de L'Enfant-Jésus, OCD (2 December 1894 – 27 March 1967) was a French Catholic priest and a Discalced Carmelite. He joined the Carmelites just after his ordination.
Grialou held several positions of leadership within his congregation and was an extensive traveler as a manager of a range of different Carmelite convents and monasteries across the world. He was the founder of the Secular Institute of Notre-Dame de Vie. Grialou was also a noted spiritual writer and wrote at great length on the Carmelite charism as well as on a range of Carmelite luminaries.
Grialou's life was driven with his devotion to the Carmelite charism and to the spreading and promotion of evangelical zeal. His motto in life was "traditus gratiae Dei" (surrendered to the grace of God). He ensured that Carmelite teachings and its charism was promoted among the faithful.
