Prayer of St. Dymphna
Lord, our God, you graciously chose St. Dymphna as patroness
of those afflicted with mental, emotional, and nervous disorders.
She is thus an inspiration and a symbol of charity to the thousands
who ask her intercession.
Please grant, Lord, through the prayers of this pure youthful martyr,
relief and consolation to all suffering such trials, and especially Cousin
D, for whom we pray.
We beg you, Lord, to hear the prayers of St. Dymphna on our behalf.
Grant all those for whom we pray patience in their sufferings and
resignation to your divine will. Please fill them with hope, and grant
them the relief and cure they so desire. We ask this through Christ
our Lord, who suffered agony in the garden. Amen.
