Please bless us again, St Gerard with another healthy baby. We are so truly blessed with our son and would love to make him a big brother. Also, please bless all the woman who desperately want a child to be able to conceive and bring life into this world.
I pray to you St.Gerard to help bless my husband and I with a second child. He has strayed from our marriage and we both wanted more than one child and now he has decided only one. Our son has special needs and he would greatly benefit from having a sibling to grow and bond with. I love being a mom, for the first time in my life I feelt like I know what I am doing. I long to have a second child to love. A blessing that shows life does indeed go on. Thank you for the blessings.
St. Gerard, I pray for your intercession to heal my body, and allow me to bring life into this world. I thank you for helping all the others who have prayed to you, and I pray that you will do the same for me. When the disappointment of trying and failing seems too much to bear, I will pray to you. My prayers go out to anyone and everyone who is trying to have children, and for all of the previous posters as well. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
I humbly ask though how much unworthy I am, the permission of our Creator, through the intercession of St. Gerard, to have a stronger faith & sincerity in our hearts while saying how much we trust God's will. Our creator knows what's in our hearts & it is no use telling Him otherwise. He knows how much we want a child amidst doubts & fears because of the miscarriage last year. But it is so powerful & comforting to just lift up all these turmoils within. I pray for the couples who are experiencing the same. Please assist us in our desires to accept what God wills for us. And to know that God's will is always the best.
Dear St. Gerard, Please pray for me to help me conceive and have a healthy baby. thanks
