Prayer to St. Bernardine of Siena (respiratory illnesses)

St. Bernardine of Siena, you were healed of respiratory illness and preached the love and mercy of God everywhere you went.

I come to you now seeking your prayers for (name person) and all who suffer with respiratory illnesses.  

Plead their cases in unison with Mary, the Mother of God, and seek healing for them if that is God’s holy will.

Pray, dear saint, that they suffer with joy, persevere with hope, and that they join their afflictions with Jesus’ for the salvation of souls.

I ask your intercession on their behalf in Jesus’ holy Name.   Amen.
