Saint Gerard, most favored child of heaven, to whom Mary gave the Infant Jesus in the days of your childhood, to whom she sweetly came before you did close your eyes in death, obtain for me I beseech you, so to seek and love my Blessed Mother during life, that she may be my joy and consolation in this valley of tears, until with you, before the throne of God, I may praise her goodness for all eternity.

3⃣ NOVENA TO ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II
DAY 3 - OCTOBER 15
Dear St. John Paul, you told us: “Have no fear of moving into the unknown. Simply step out fearlessly knowing that I am with you, therefore no harm can befall you; all is very, very well. Do this in complete faith and confidence.” What more can I say, but thank you for your confidence in me. Help me have complete faith in God. Stand with me at all times as my intercessor and spiritual guide until I get to Heaven.
PRAYER
Merciful God, accept our thanksgiving for the gift of St. John Paul's II apostolic life and mission and through his intercession, please, GRANT US THIS PETITION (mention your petition). Grant us also to grow in love for you and proclaim boldly the love of Christ to all people, through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
O Blessed Trinity, we thank you for having graced the Church with St. John Paul II and for allowing the tenderness of your Fatherly care, the glory of the Cross of Christ, and the splendor of the Spirit of love to shine through him. Trusting fully in Your infinite mercy, and in the maternal intercession of Mary, he has given us a living example of Jesus the Good Shepherd, and has shown us that holiness is the necessary measure of ordinary Christian life and is the way of achieving eternal communion with You. Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
St. John Paul II, pray for us.
