When I was involved in a lawsuit settlement, I prayed to Saint Raymond; the day for mediation came and the outcome was successful. There were some areas that could have been troubling, but the issues miraculously never were mentioned. Even my attorney commented, "Somebody up there (heaven) likes you". Thank you Jesus and St. Raymond.
St Raymond pray for me, for a healthy successful pregnancy. Please Pray to our Lord for a healthy baby boy.
Hello, when I was pregnant with my daughter; I was told there was a great possibility she will have down syndrome. I prayed to St. Ramon Nonato (spanish name) for my daughter to be healthy. When, she was born she was a healthy beautiful little girl. To my eyes and faith, he perform a miracle and I named my daughter Natalia Ramona after him. She is 8 years old and in 3rd grade. :)
To all the pregnant women and mothers out there pray to him. He will listen to you!
My father was convicted of a crime he did not commit. I continuously ask St. Raymond to pray for us, he has come through for my family once before, back when my mother was pregnant with me. I hope that he will help us now.
Dear Raymund Nonnatus, Please pray for me to bear my afflictions patiently and bravely.
Saint Raymond Nonnatus Pray for us
Let us pray to St Raymond Nonnatus, that motherhood, pregnancy and childbirth regain their sacred value as direct manifestations of God's supreme creative power. Teach us to believe again that we are above all God's creatures and that to Him all honour and glory is due. Amen
St. Raymond Nonnatus, you were a valiant soldier of Christ, even preaching among the Mohammedans. For the conversions you made you suffered severe persecution. Please pray for me to be protected against all deceit and ill will. Pray for all expectant mothers too. Amen
This is also the patron saint of the falsely accused. Please pray for me that the prosecutor/judge/jury finds the act I have been accused of is false. Please let it be dismissed before it gets to court. This could ruin my life if I am found guilty. I am thinking this is the way counties and cities have resorted to greed in order to make money. Dear Lord, listen to Saint Raymond Nonnatus' prayers as he pleads my case to you. I am praying everyday! Please help me!
We have been praying to St. Raymond for 9 months now for my daughter. She had 3 miscarriages in the past and got pregnant again. We needed to pray to a saint that might help with this pregnancy so all would go well. Have been praying to him and to St. Gerald for this entire pregnancy and though she still has 2 more weeks to go, I would definitely tell anyone who is pregnant to certainly pray to them for some additional help and peace! God Bless and Good Luck!
I just found out that I am a few days pregnant and I started looking online for prayers or saint for pregnant women as I this would be my first child and we have been trying for a while.
