"When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom He loved, He said to His mother, Woman, behold your son." -John 19;26
With the intercession of St. John the Evangelist we pray...
Healer of souls and comforter of the weary, help to lighten the burden of families who are caring for their sick and elderly loved ones. Accompany them on their journey and ease their anxiety and fears. Surround them with the love and strength of others, so they may experience the healing presence of the communion of saints. We ask this in the name of your Son, Jesus and the Holy Spirit now and forever. Amen.
St. John the Evangelist is the patron saint of caregivers.
