St. Martha Comments
"Jesus loved Martha and Mary and Lazarus." This unique statement in John's gospel tells us of the special relationship Jesus had with Martha, her sister, and her brother.

St Martha is a wonderful saint who has answered my prayers over the years for my family. My son's hearing was normal within the nine Tuesdays. I am praying for my 20 year old daughter who has a cataract, my husband's blood pressure to return to normal,that I will find apermanent teaching post in a school where God wants me to be, that my brother will find peace in this life and in the next, that my Theresa and Patrick will do well in their exams and feel fulfilled, that all of my family will find fulfilling work and above all that they will always have Jesus at the centre of their lives.
Amen.

I Love St. Martha!! We have to do a report on a saint. my b.f.f is doing Mary, and back then they were sisters, so it's like we are to in real life!!!!
after i read about st.martha ....she was the best pick for me....st.martha did kind things.....(shouldnt we all do kind things) i think so....
today i had to pick my final saint and i thought that when i read this saint martha was the right one for me.
i have been like martha in many ways. haven't we all? such as being distracted for instance!
May I have the answer to my health problems and finances to improve as quickly as possible and peace in my life for me and my family.
See the beautiful Novena to St Martha (lighted candle every Tuesday and prayer for your intention over 9 Tuesdays).
I had my sister, Martha. She was truly like Martha in the bible. I miss her. May she be serving Jesus in heaven.
Saint Martha pray for us all; pray when our brothers and sisters excel we may enjoy to behold their success; pray when they are fallen down we may help them to rise up; pray we may serve as best we can at the bright Wedding Feast of the Lamb in shining new Jerusalem, Alleluia, Amen
