Texto de la oración
Saint Peregrine, join your prayers to mine before our loving God. Pray for those facing cancer or another serious illness, and for everyone waiting for a diagnosis. Ask Jesus for healing, relief from pain and strength for each day. Support families, nurses, doctors and all who offer care. Help the sick feel heard and loved, and guide them toward sound treatment, practical assistance and companionship in their fear. Intercede for the intentions I now hold in silence, especially for those who have no one to pray with them. May every grace we receive draw us closer to Jesus and make us more ready to serve our neighbour. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
