Reflections
A Note from Fr. Dan about St. Peregrine
This past week I was on retreat, and while praying for the parish it came to me that many are suffering from cancer. Did you know that we have a Saint to whom we can pray specifically for intercession for cancer patients? He is St. Peregrine, and here is his story.
I found a statue of St. Peregrine which I purchased and blessed along with a book of Catholic Novenas with the novena in honor of St. Peregrine in it. If any one or any family would like to take the statue and Novena to their home and pray that novena for themselves, a loved one or a friend; please contact the rectory. All that I ask is that you bring the statue and novena back to the rectory after your nine days so that others might have the opportunity to take part in this prayer.
God Bless, Fr. Dan
