Prayer to St. Peregrine
O God, who gave to St. Peregrine
an angel for his companion, the Mother
of God for his Teacher, and Jesus for
the Physician of his malady; grant, we
beseech Thee, through his merits, that
we may on earth intensely love our
holy angel, the Blessed Virgin, and our
Saviour , and in heaven bless them for-
ever. Grant that we receive the favor
for which we now petition. Through
the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
Say one Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory
be to the Father, with the invocation;
St. Peregrine, pray for us. St. Pere-
grine (rhymes with ter'repin) was con-
verted by St. Philip, O.S.M. He entered
the Order of the Servants of Mary in
1283. Thus began 62 years of unbe-
lievable penance as Peregrine made
reparation for the sins of his youth.
His feast day is on May 2nd St.
Peregrine is universally invoked as
Parton of Cancer victims because
a cancerous growth on his own leg
was miraculously cured.
