Novena to St. Peregrine for the Sick

Pray each day for nine days: O great St. Peregrine, thou hast been called "The Mighty," "The Wonder-Worker," because of the numerous miracles which thou hast obtained from God for those who have had recourse to thee. For so many years thou didst bear in thine own flesh this cancerous disease that destroys the very fiber of our being, and who hadst recourse to the source of all grace when the power of man could do no more.
