7. Prayer for Padre Pio's Intercession
Gracious God, You generously

blessed Your servant, Padre Pio, with the gifts of the Spirit. You marked his
body with the five wounds of Christ Crucified, as a powerful witness to the
saving Passion and Death of Your Son, and as a stirring inspiration to many
people of Your infinite mercy, forgiveness, and love. 
In the confessional,
Padre Pio labored endlessly for the salvation of souls. Through his prayerful
intercession, many who suffered were healed of sickness and
disease.
Endowed with the gift of discernment, he could read people's
hearts. From the blood of his wounds came a perfumed fragrance, a special
sign of Your Holy Presence. With dignity and intense devotion, he
celebrated daily Mass, inviting countless men and women to a greater union
with Jesus Christ, in the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
Through the
intercession of Padre Pio, I confidently beseech You to grant me the grace
of (here state your petition). Help me to imitate his example of prayerful
holiness and compassion, so that I, too, may faithfully follow the Risen Lord,
and one day rejoice in the Kingdom, where You live and reign forever and
ever...Amen.



 


PRAYER

PADRE PIO

O Jesus, full of grace and charity, victim for sinners, so impelled by love for us that you willed to die
on the cross, I humbly beseech You to glorify in heaven and on earth the Servant of God, Padre Pio
of Pietrelcina, who generously participated in Your sufferings, who loved You so much and laboured
 so faithfully for the glory of Your heavenly Father and for the good of souls.

With confidence I beseech You to grant me, through his intercession, the grace of (here add your
request), which I ardently desire.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now and
ever shall be, world without end...Amen.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now and

PRAYERS FOR THE POOR SOULS IN PURGATORY

Prayer of St. Gertrude the Great.

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the
Masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere,
for sinners in the universal Church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.
A very direct method of asking for a favour, through the intercession of the Holy Souls in
Purgatory,

“Holy Souls in Purgatory, I have prayed for you, and I will continue to pray to you. I have also
encouraged others to pray for you, and I will continue to encourage others to pray for you.” In return
please obtain for me, (put in your requests here; e.g. the healing of my brother Joe’s cancer, financial
help for our family, the conversion of my cousin Kate, etc.)

I also ask the whole court of heaven for these favours also, especially the Holy Infant Jesus of
Prague, Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, St. Raphael the Archangel (who is also known as the
healing angel), St. Michael the Archangel, the guardian angels (especially mine) and all the saints
especially, St. Philomena the Wonder Worker, St. Rita, the saint of the impossible and St. Nicholas
the Wonder Worker.”

A Prayer to the Poor Souls in Purgatory (to ask for favours)

O holy souls in Purgatory, thou are the certain heirs of Heaven. Thou are most dear to Jesus, as the
trophies of His Precious Blood and to Mary, Mother of Mercy. Obtain for me, through thine
intercession, the grace to lead a holy life, to die a happy death and to attain to the blessedness of
eternity in Heaven. Dear suffering souls, who long to be delivered in order to praise and glorify God
in Heaven, by thine unfailing pity, help me in the needs which distress me at this time, particularly
(here mention your request), so that I may obtain relief and assistance from God. In gratitude for
thine intercession, I offer to God on thy behalf the satisfactory merits of my prayers, works, joys and
sufferings of this day (week, month, or whatever space of time you wish to designate). Amen.
