Day 5 - Saint Peregrine Novena

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

Put yourself in the presence of the Lord Jesus,

Keep silent to let yourself be invaded by the presence of Jesus, Mary, and Saint Peregrine.

The Word of God

Do not let your hearts be troubled." (John 14: 1)

What would my life be like if I was not beaming with joy?

Putting it simply, it would be a life of servitude. May your joy shine in your eyes, your gaze, your conversion, and your loving service to others. By seeing this happiness, those around you will become aware of their dignity as children of God. This doesn't mean that you can't go through great internal turmoils and or struggle to fight against darkness. But, if you want others to notice the presence of Jesus, you must first be convinced of it yourself, and radiate with joy. Joy is contagious; be filled with joy every time you reach out to others!

Prayer of the Day:

"Lord Jesus, in Your Eternal Kindness You blessed Your servant Saint Peregrine with the grace to live in joy;

I implore You to grant me this same favor. May I be Your joy!

O Holy Virgin Mary, my Good Mother, give me your Son."

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father

Saint Peregrine, pray for me.

Saint Peregrine, pray for all those who suffer.

Saint Peregrine, you who suffered, grow in my heart (in the heart of N...) Faith, Hope and Peace.

Suggestion:

Make a small sacrifice, a resolution for today.

If you think about it well, you will find lots of small resolutions to make "just for today". For example: you can go to Mass, visit the Blessed Sacrament, quit smoking or watching TV for a day, make a gesture of love towards a person in need of help, such as a phone call or a short prayer …

Let us pray:

Lord Jesus, with confidence I continue this novena with You and Our Holy Virgin Mother Mary, to obtain, through the intercession of Saint Peregrine, the healing of (N…), who suffers from cancer.

Lord Jesus, protect me from this terrible disease, and above all keep me in Your Heart.

Amen.

Prayer to Saint Peregrine

O Glorious Saint Peregrine, apostle of Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows, you whose Faith was so great, that it got you everything you asked of God, you whose humility was so deep, that you accepted to be a priest only on the orders of your superiors, you whose patience was so perfect, that you ask Jesus Crucified to cure you of your cancer and to leave you suffering from it, by the ineffable joys that you taste now as a reward for your virtues and your submission to the Will of God , put in our hearts and souls these dispositions of Faith, humility and submission to divine goodwill so that we can obtain from the omnipotence of God. (Express the favors that one wishes to obtain….) To whom would we have recourse, if not to you who carried our infirmities in your flesh, you on whom Our Lord Himself bent over to heal you. The example of your life and your virtues will bring us near to Our Lady, who is our life, our sweetness and our hope, and thus we will obtain what we ask for. Through Jesus, Christ, our Lord. Amen.
