Bonella crystal-clear laminated card with English prayer in full color. Overall size 2 1/2 x 4 1/2. Text reads: O God, who gave to St. Peregrine an Angel for his companion, the Mother of God for his Teacher, and Jesus as 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 Mary, and our Saviour, and in heaven bless them forever. Grant that we receive the favor 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. Peregrine (rhymes with ter rapin) was converted by St. Philip, O.S.M. He entered the Order of the Servants of Mary in 1283. Thus began 62 years of unbelievable penance as Peregrine made reparation for the sins of his youth. His Feast Day is on May 2nd. St. Peregrine is universally invoked as Patron of cancer victims because a cancerous growth on his leg was miraculously cured.
