Prayer To St. Gerard Majella

O beloved St. Gerard, mighty advocate with God and miracle worker among us, I turn to you and implore your assistance. You, who always fulfilled God's purpose during your life on earth, assist me in carrying out His holy will. Ask the Giver of Life, from whom all fatherhood flows, to bless me with the gift of children, so that I may nurture them for God in this world and prepare them as heirs to His glorious Kingdom in the life to come. Amen. O dear Mother Mary, intercede with Jesus on my behalf.
