Prayers to Saint Peregrine

1. Prayer to The Mother of Sorrows
through the intercession
of Saint Peregrine

O my dearest Mother Mary,
Mother of Sorrows, behold me, your child, in prayer.
I have come to plead for this special favor
through the intercession of your faithful servant, Saint Peregrine:
(State your intention here).
O Sorrowful Mother,
I beg you to present my petition to your Divine Son.
If you will pray for me, I cannot be refused.
I know, dearest Mother,
that you want me to seek God's Will in all things.
Therefore, with childlike trust,
I abandon myself to God's Holy Will concerning my request.
If what I ask for should not be granted,
pray that I may receive that which will be of greater benefit to my soul.
Mother of Sorrows, I Love You!
I put my confidence in you,
because your prayers before God are most powerful.
For the greater glory of God
and through the intercession of Saint Peregrine,
whom you have led to Sainthood,
hear and grant my prayer.
Amen.

2. Chaplet of Saint Peregrine

A chaplet composed of three sets of small prayer beads, with 2 large beads and a medal or centerpiece. On the large beads, say the following prayer:

O Saint Peregrine, you who have been called "The Wonder-Worker" because of the numerous miracles which you have obtained from God for those who have had recourse to you, who for so many years bore in your own flesh this cancerous disease that destroys the very fiber of our being, and who had recourse to the source of all grace when the power of man could do no more: you who were favored with the vision of Jesus coming down from His Cross to heal your affliction, ask of God and Our Lady the cure of these sick persons whom we entrust to you (names of those for whom you are praying, including yourself if need be). Aided in this way by your powerful intercession, we shall sing praise to God for His great goodness and mercy. Amen.

On the three small beads, pray an Our Father, a Hail Mary and a Glory Be to the Father.

So, you will say a total of 3 prayers to Saint Peregrine, 3 Our Father, 3 Hail Marys, and 3 Glory Be prayers.

3. Prayer for Resignation to Suffering

O glorious wonder worker, Saint Peregrine, you who answered the divine call with a ready spirit, forsaking all the comforts of a life of ease and all the empty honors of the world, to dedicate yourself to God in the Order of His most Holy Mother; you who labored manfully for the salvation of souls, meriting the title Apostle of Emilia; you who in union with Jesus crucified, endured the most painful sufferings with such patience so as to deserve to be miraculously healed from an incurable wound in your leg by Him with a touch of His divine hand: obtain for us, we pray, the grace to answer every call from God; enkindle in our hearts a consuming zeal for the salvation of souls; deliver us from the infirmities that so often afflict our bodies; and obtain for us the grace of perfect resignation to the sufferings which may be sent to us; so may we, imitating your virtues and tenderly loving our crucified Lord and his sorrowful Mother, be enabled to merit glory everlasting in paradise. We ask this in the name of Jesus the Lord. Amen.

4. Rosary Medal Prayer

Saint Peregrine, you have given us an example to follow; as a Christian you were steadfast in love; as a Servite you were faithful in service; as a penitent you humbly acknowledged your sin; afflicted you bore suffering with patience; healed, you dedicated the rest of your life to God. Intercede for us, then, with our heavenly Father so that we steadfast, humble and patient, may receive from Christ Jesus the grace we ask. Amen.
