Most faithful St. Gerard,
Thank you so much for your prayers and intercession on my and my baby's behalf. We have just learned that our unborn daughter, our little Marie Gerardine, is healthy and out of danger. All through this dreadful period, I felt the effects of your intercession and was incredibly comforted and consoled by my prayers to you and to our Holy Virgin mother Marie blessed be her name. Most especially, thank you because just as I prayed all medical procedures went well with no harm to my baby. Thank you for sitting in that empty chair in the hospital's waiting room and for walking with me every step of the way. I felt your comforting presence there. Thank you Blessed Virgin Marie, you can see inside my heart and you know just how much I love you. Thank you for giving us this little girl who will remind us daily of your mercy, your love and compassion. May Jesus's name be blessed forever and may we give glory to God every time we say our daughters's name. The glory be. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it is now, as it has always been and forever will be, amen.

Dear St Gerard,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers! I am now almost 6 weeks pregnant, and I am asking you now to pray that our baby stays healthy. My husband and I have been under quite a bit of stress and I don't want it to affect our baby's health. Please pray that we will be strong and that our baby will grow and be healthy and strong. We will do everything in our power to make sure that happens. I will forever be grateful to you for your prayers. I also want to ask you to pray for the heartbroken wives that are still longing to become pregnant; I know how bad they are hurting, and I want them to know the same joy of finally seeing a positive test. Please pray for them. Thank you.

We visited your shrine on our anniversary and feast day October 16th. We have been praying to you about two years. All hormones and tests are coming back fine.our age (im 43) and job stress works against us. I believe you hear my prayers and have faith you will intercede for us. God had put such a strong desire to have a baby in me. If it its his will, we ask in his name for baby Jeffrey Gerard to arrive soon 2013.please help us. Intercede for us to Jesus, blessed mother Mary, Amen
