Heavenly Father,

Your Son Jesus came into the world not just to heal us from all infirmities, but to save us from sin and death and bring us back to you. Help and increase our little faith. May this faith, though little, be trusting not doubting. Defend our brothers and sisters from the power of the evil one. Heal those who suffered life threatening deceases. Through the intercession of St. Peregrine, grant them healing in body and spirit. This we ask through Jesus Christ, the Healer.       

Amen.
