St. Bernardine of Siena Comments
In the year 1400, a young man came to the door of the largest hospital in Siena. A plague was raging through the city so horrible that as many as twenty people died each day just in the hospital alone. And many of the people who died were those who were needed to tend the ill.

Thank you, Saint Peregrine for your interceding for those with lung issues.
Praying to Saint Bernardino of Siena for my brother, Nathan's lungs. He has both a bacteria and a virus affecting his lungs and causing great difficulty in his cancer recovery.
Pray that his lungs clear and the virus gets under control.
Praying to St. Bernadine helped my mother suffering direly from respiratory ailments. Doctors said she would die, but she did not -- in fact, she turned the corner for the better once insightful prayer began. I still give him thanks in my prayers.
St. Bernardine please pray for us...amen !!!
since iam in that field lord give me energy to see patients as my bro and sisters st bernardine pray for us all amen
We hear shameful words but not bothered to correct the person, who speaks it,
We see people suffering in various diseases but we have not bothered to help,
We comment and criticize the priests about their sermons but not thought out such sermons only build the Holy church,
We forget to pray but we live because of such saints prayers.
Lord God we are sinners forgive us.
FILL US WITH YOUR HOLY SPIRIT.
St. Bernardine of Siena pray for us.
I think that Saint Bernardine was a hard worker. In Jesus' name I thank him and others like him.
Dear St. Bernardine,

Very Impressive life...a man who's dedication's life was to serve his neighbors and God. Very good example to us as Jesus followers.
