dear saint GERARD MAGELLA thank you soo much for giving me a peaceful pregnancy and a wondeful baby girl.i am so grateful for your kind prayers.you saved me and my child from unexpected complications.thank you once again from the bottom of my heart.
Saint Gerard, I entrusted to you my pregnancy. I sought strength to Jesus with your intercession since I feel hopeless even I was sheltered by my wonderful family because I have to go through the process alone. I believe that my son was a fruit of love but unexpectedly my child's father has chosen to turn his back on us. Hence, since then I made Jesus my son's Father. With my veneration to you and deep faith on Jesus Christ I was able to surpass depression and gain strength and is now enjoying each day of my life with my wonderful son. I learned that a friend of mine is to share the same fate as mine. Please help her as you have helped me. Make her feel that she's not alone. That Jesus would be there for her and her child. Please pray for her that she'll have a safe pregnancy and that her child will be healthy in God's grace. Thank you Saint Gerard. Please pray for us.

You who always fulfilled God's will on earth, help me to do God's holy will. Intercede with the Giver of life, from whom all parenthood proceeds, that I may conceive and raise children who will please God in this life, and be heirs to the kingdom of heaven. My husband and I turn to you in our time of need and know that your works are amazing and often answered. Please hear our cries and bless us. Amen.
