O God teach me how to pray spontaniously through the intercession of St matilda amen
Dear St. Matilda, please pray for me.
Dear St. Matilda, what can you do for me? I have begged and beseeched for God's mercy and compassion on poor suffering children. Give them a permanent medical cure, that will free them from the torment of seizures, speech delays, poor learning ability and a host of overall developmental delays. Do not let the parents of these children become desperate or despondent. Only heaven can help. Please do something for them on your special day, for in Heaven and on earth you will be honoured today. Amen.
St Matilda, pray for all children born with developmental delays. Help them improve and progress through your divine intervention. Amen.
