Patron Saints of Healing
St.Maximilian Kolbe
(Patron Saint for Addictions)
aint Maximilian Kolbe,
your life of love and labor
for souls was sacrificed amid
the horrors of a concentration
camp and hastened to its end
by an injection of a deadly
drug. Look with compassion
upon [name of person] who is
now entrapped in addiction to
drugs/alcohol and whom I
now recommend to your
powerful intercession. Having
offered your own life to
preserve that of a family man,
I turn to you with trust,
confident that you will
understand and help. Obtain
for me the grace never to
withhold my love and
understanding, or to fail in
persevering prayer that the
enslaving bonds of addiction
may be broken and that full
health may be restored to
him, whom I love. I will never
cease to be grateful to God
who has helped me and
heard your prayer for me.
Amen.
S
St. Dymphna
(Patron Saint of Depression
and Mental Illness)
ood Saint Dymphna,
great wonderworker in
every affliction of mind and
body, I humbly implore your
powerful intercession with
Jesus through Mary, the
Health of the Sick, in my
present need. (Mention it.)
Saint Dymphna, martyr of
purity, patroness of those
who suffer with nervous and
mental afflictions, beloved

(Pray one Our Father, one
Hail Mary and one Glory Be.)
Saint Dymphna, Virgin and
Martyr, pray for us. Amen.
St. Peregrine
(Patron Saint of Cancer Healing)
great St. Peregrine, you
have been called "The
Mighty" and "The Wonder
Worker" because of the
numerous miracles which you
have obtained from God for
those who have had recourse
to you. For so many years
you bore in your own flesh
this cancerous disease that
destroys the very fiber of our
being, and who had recourse
to the source of all grace
when the power of man could
do no more. You were
favored with the vision of
Jesus coming down from His
Cross to heal your affliction.
Ask of God and Our Lady, the
cure of the sick whom we
entrust to you. (Pause here
and silently recall the names
of the sick for whom you are
praying) Aided in this way by
your powerful intercession,
we shall sing to God, now
and for all eternity, a song of
gratitude for His great
goodness and mercy. Amen.
O
