                          Saint Eugene de Mazenod's zeal for the missions was stirred through contact with the fervent companions       
                          such as Forbin-Jansen, the future bishop of Nancy and the founder of the Association of the Holy Childhood.

                              Charles Joseph Eugene was born in Aix-en-Provence in the south of France on August 1, 1782.   
                               When Eugene was eight years old, his family fled France, leaving their possessions behind.   
                                They started a long and increasingly difficult eleven year exile.

Eugene's family went to Italy. Eugene became a boarder at the College of Nobles in Turin.   
A move to Vienna, Austria meant the end of formal schooling.

When Eugene was in Palermo in Sicily, he was invited to become part of the household     
of the Duke and Duchess of Cannizaro as a companion to their two sons.
