St. Peregrine Novena for Cancer Patients

  Posted on March 5, 2018  by admin  No comments

Day 1

Saint Peregrine suffered with cancer on his leg and he was told it needed to be amputated. So St.  Peregrine turned to the cross and prayed. He did not allow his illness to bring him to despair, but rather it brought him closer to the cross, even through his suffering.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Dear holy servant of God, St. Peregrine, we pray today for healing.

Intercede for us! God healed you of cancer and others were healed by your prayers. Please pray for the physical healing of…

(Mention your intentions)

These intentions bring us to our knees seeking your intercession for healing.

We are humbled by our physical limitations and ailments. We are so weak and so powerless. We are completely dependent upon God. And so, we ask that you pray for us…

Pray for us, that we will not let sickness bring us to despair

We know, St. Peregrine, that you are a powerful intercessor because your life was completely given to God. We know that in as much as you pray for our healing, you are praying even more for our salvation.

A life of holiness like yours is more important than a life free of suffering and disease. Pray for our healing, but pray even more that we might come as close to Our Lord as you are.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Pray with us that they will look to the cross, stay strong in their faith, and be ever hopeful in God’s will.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Day 3

Today, let’s pray that all cancer patients and others who suffer from debilitating diseases or illnesses will be able to offer up their suffering in union with Jesus Christ. Pray that their suffering will bring them closer in union with Christ as He suffered when He was on this earth. Jesus understands our human feelings and sufferings.

Day 4

Today let’s pray that all cancer patients, as well as others dealing with chronic & life-threatening diseases, will be consoled. Let’s pray that they will experience the healing presence and love of our Lord whether it be through prayer or through their interactions with others, especially through their family and friends. We also want to remember in a special way to pray for all the families and friends who know someone suffering with cancer; may God console them too.

Day 5

While St. Peregrine was cured of his cancer miraculously, many people will not experience that same healing. But everyone does have the chance of enjoying an even greater reward: everlasting life with God. So today let’s pray for everyone suffering and nearing death. Let’s pray that through their faith, they will not be afraid of death but will have hope in everlasting life with God. Let’s pray that their fear will be relieved, and that their hope will be strengthened.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Day 6

Through the witness of the saints, we know that suffering has meaning. Many saints accepted suffering while others even asked for more of it. They did so because they were motivated by love and by a desire to join Christ in redemptive suffering – however painful and long. Let’s pray today for all cancer patients and others who are suffering. Let’s pray that their suffering will not rob them of joy. And if you’re struggling to be joyful, see below the prayers for a few steps to reclaim the joy of Jesus Christ.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Day 7

When the saints suffered, they allowed that suffering to bring them closer to Christ on the cross. They became Christ-like, even, through each pain and affliction they suffered from. Instead of becoming selfish because of their pain and suffering, they became even more selfless. So today let’s pray that all cancer patients and others who suffer will become more selfless through their suffering, like the saints. And while we reflect on true selflessness, let’s also remember to pray for everyone else’s needs and intentions during this novena.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Day 8

With as many advances as there are in medicine and science, it’s easy to look to doctors for a cure and a fix to our suffering. It’s easy to depend on them. And while doctors are important, helpful, and can provide life-saving treatments, everything is ultimately in God’s hands. So today let’s pray that we all may come to depend more on God through our suffering.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Day 9

Today, let’s pray for all cancer patients and others who are suffering once more. Let’s pray that their lives — that all of our lives — will glorify God alone. We do not exist for any other reason. Let’s pray that we all live for our true purpose: for Him.

Final Prayer

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Dear Lord Jesus, I have specific requests that may only partially fill the infinite needs and desires that are in my heart. I ask that You answer me not only for those requests but also for a greater reliance on You to satisfy the needs and desires that You have given me.

Please grant the prayers of all those who prayed this novena with me. Bless them with Your love and make them holy!

May I seek You with a sincere heart knowing that it will profit me nothing if I gain the whole world yet lose my soul.

So, help me to see Your good and gracious purpose in all my trials. Help me to see Your blessings in every day and help me to love You more.

Thank You for everything, Lord Jesus!

Amen.In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
