Prayer to Saint Peregrine

O great St. Peregrine, you have been called "The Mighty," "The Wonder-Worker," because of the numerous miracles which you have obtained from God for those who have had recourse to you.
For so many years you bore in your own flesh this cancerous disease that destroys the very fibre of our being, and who had recourse to the source of all grace when the power of man could do no more. You were favoured with the vision of Jesus coming down from His Cross to heal your affliction. Ask of God and Our Lady, the cure of the sick whom we entrust to you.

(Pause here and silently recall the names of the sick for whom you are praying)

Aided in this way by your powerful intercession, we shall sing to God, now and for all eternity, a song of gratitude for His great goodness and mercy.
Amen.

    The book of Psalms ... is the book in which the emotions of the human soul find expressions. Whatever your mood ,and I suppose you have changing moods as well as I do...I can find you a psalm that will help you express it. Are you glad? I can find you a psalm that you can sing. Are you sad ? I can find you a psalm that will suit that occasion.
    The psalms range over the whole gammet of human emotions..... They were all written for us in the consciousness of and in the sense of the presence of God... In every one of these psalms , from the first to the last , whatever the paticular tone, whether major or minor , the singer is conscious of God. That gives peculiar character to the book of Psalms.
