PLEASE PRAY FOR ME

I am requesting prayers from my fellow freepers. Last month I was diagnosed with Lung Cancer.

I had a PET Scan yesterday and will get the results tomorrow.

I ask that you say a little prayer for me that it is operable.

Thank you.

Lord, look upon our FRiend with the eyes of Your mercy; may Your healing hand rest upon waxer1; may Your life-giving powers flow into every cell of waxer1’s body and into the depths of our FRiend’s soul; cleansing, purifying, and restoring our waxer to wholeness and strength for service in Your Kingdom. Amen.

I pray it’s God’s will that you live and live long. That this cancer is operable and you will be able to stay longer on this earth.

I pray for healing.

Pray to:
St. Peregrine Laziosi
Feastday: May 1
Patron of Cancer Victims
Birth: 1260
Death: 1345

Peregrine Laziosi was born of a wealthy family at Forli, Italy, in 1260. As a youth he was active in politics as a member of the anti-papal party. During one uprising, which the Pope sent St. Philip Benizi to mediate, Philip was struck in the face by Peregrine. When Philip offered the other cheek, Peregrine was so overcome that he repented and converted to Catholicism. Following the instructions of the Virgin Mary received in a vision, Peregrine went to Siena and joined the Servites. It is believed that he never allowed himself to sit down for thirty years, while as far as possible, observing silence and solitude. Sometime later, Peregrine was sent to Forli to found a new house of the Servite Order. An ideal priest, he had a reputation for fervent preaching and being a good confessor. When he was afflicted with cancer of the foot and amputation had been decided upon, he spent the night before the operation, in prayer. The following morning he was completely cured. This miracle caused his reputation to become widespread. He died in 1345 at the age of eighty-five, and he was canonized by Pope Benedict XIII in 1726. St. Peregrine, like St. Paul, was in open defiance of the Church as a youth. Once given the grace of conversion he became one of the great saints of his time. His great fervor and qualities as a confessor brought many back to the true Faith. Afflicted with cancer, Peregrine turned to God and was richly rewarded for his Faith, enabling him over many years to lead others to the truth. He is the patron of cancer patients.
