O Saint Vincent Ferrer, our guardian, because God, our eternal Father, has blessed you with an inexhaustible fountain of grace and blessings, we beg you to hear our prayers and to assist us with your powerful intercession, which is even more effective now that you are in heaven than it was when you were on earth. Full of confidence in your mercy and compassion, we kneel in prayer before you, and commend to your powerful intercession all our needs, those of our families, our friends, relatives, and benefactors, and especially . . . (here mention the favors desired). Glorious St. Vincent Ferrer, let not our hope and confidence in your protection be deceived. Intercede for us before the throne of God. Watch over our eternal welfare. If our trials and tribulations in this world multiply, may they serve to give us spiritual joy and happiness, if God will only grant us the grace of ever increasing patience to the end that we may save our souls. Amen.
O almighty and eternal God, you bountifully enriched St. Vincent Ferrer, your holy servant, with many graces and merits, and through his intercession have given a return to health to so many sick and infirm. Grant, we beg you, that by following his example and aided by his prayers, we may obtain the grace to despise the things of this world and to look to those of heaven, and thus be cleansed of our sinfulness. Grant that through his powerful aid we may be freed from all evils of body and soul. Amen.
St. Vincent Ferrer, prayer for us.
St. Vincent Ferrer, help us.
St. Vincent Ferrer, comfort us.
St. Vincent Ferrer, cure us of our ill health.
(3 Our Fathers, 3 Hail Mary’s, 3 Glory Be’s)
O glorious apostle and worker of miracles, St. Vincent Ferrer, new Angel of the Apocalypse and our kind protector, receive our humble prayers and obtain for us an abundance of divine favors. By that love which inflamed your heart, obtain for us from the Father of mercies the pardon of all our sins, confirmation in our faith, and perseverance in good works. By living as good and fervent Christians may we become more worthy of your powerful intercession. Extend your protection to our bodies and free us from our infirmities. Protect our land from the violence of storms and disasters, and keep misfortune far from us. Thus blessed and protected by you in soul and body, we shall be ever devoted to you, and one day, with God’s grace, be with you in heaven, there to praise God forever and ever. Amen.
