Prayer to St. Bernadine of Siena
St. Bernadine of Siena, you were healed of
Respiratory illness and preached the love and
Mercy
of God everywhere you went.
I come to you now seeking your prayers for the sick
And all who suffer with respiratory Illnesses.
Plead
their cases in unison with Mary, the Mother Of
God, and seek healing for them if that is God’s Holy will.
Pray, dear saint that
they suffer with joy,
Persevere with hope, and that they join their
Afflictions with Jesus’ for the salvation of souls.
I ask your
intercession on their behalf in Jesus’
Holy Name.
Amen.

St. Bernardine of Siena’s prayer
to the Holy Name of Jesus
Jesus, Name full of glory, grace,
Love and strength!
You are the refuge
of those who repent,
our banner of warfare in this life,
the medicine of souls,
the comfort of those who morn,
the delight of those
who believe,
the light of those who preach the true faith,
the wages of those who toil,
the healing of the sick.
To you our devotion
aspires;
by you our prayers are received;
we delight in contemplating you.
O Name of Jesus, You are
the glory of all the saints for
eternity.
Amen.
