Hello everyone,

Just learned a few weeks ago my father has prostate cancer and just recently learned it’s spread into this hip. He’s never been very “religious” and is not Catholic - currently attending a Methodist church. He’s very active there but knowing him as I do I’m concerned that he still doesn’t know Christ that well. He’s 82.

Please pray that this time of suffering is useful for him to get to REALLY know Christ, really give his life to Christ and repent of his sins and, of course, to not have to suffer too, too much.

I have to travel tomorrow so please forgive me for not getting back on the thread until the weekend. Peace 🙂
 
Oh Lord Jesus Christ, I pray for this hurting family, and especially for this dear brother…Father in heaven, grant him comfort in his suffering. Draw him close to you during this time, that he may know you. Give him strength for the journey, and walk with him Oh God.
Lord Jesus, I trust in you!
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
Oh Lord Jesus Christ, we pray that at this moment of pain and suffering, our brother and his father find solace and comfort in You. May Your Cross, dear Lord, be also a symbol of love and forgiveness for them.

St. Peregrine, pray for us.

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.
*Novena to St. Peregrine

Glorious wonder-worker, St. Peregrine, you answered the divine call with a ready spirit, and forsook 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 holy Mother.
You labored manfully for the salvation of souls. In union with Jesus crucified, you endured painful sufferings with such patience as to deserve to be healed miraculously of an incurable cancer in your leg by a touch of His divine hand.
Obtain for me the grace to answer every call of God and to fulfill His will in all the events of life. Enkindle in my heart a consuming zeal for the salvation of all men.
Deliver me from the infirmities that afflict my body (especially…).
Obtain for me also a perfect resignation to the sufferings it may please God to send me, so that, imitating our crucified Savior and His sorrowful Mother, I may merit eternal glory in heaven.

St. Peregrine, pray for me and for all who invoke your aid.*

We pray for your father that this time of suffering will draw him close to the risen Lord. Father help him to know it is in you alone that we find life. Life for this world and life everlasting. Help him to see with new eyes the plan you have for him. Take him by the hand Lord, and lead him to the peace that lies with knowing you.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Remember oh most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence I fly unto thee oh Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. Oh Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Amen.
 
Wow - you guys are just great - I thank you so so much for your prayers!
 
Lord Jesus, cover this father with Your Precious Blood, and fill him with Your Holy Spirit that he may know you. I pray in his suffering you will bring him closer to you. I pray you will put your healing hand on him Lord, and deliver him from this cancer. Bless this family who cares for his soul so very much. We Praise you and thank you Lord Jesus Christ for loving us!

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the
wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the divine power of God,
cast into hell, Satan and all the evil spirits,
who roam throughout the world,
seeking the ruin of souls.
AMEN
