Novena for Healing

St. Raphael, your name means ‘God’s Healing’.  You who are helpful in bringing healing to body and soul, charity and deliverance. You are also called the Angel of Science and Knowledge. Glorious Archangel Saint Raphael, great prince of the heavenly court, you are illustrious for your gifts of wisdom and grace.
 

St. Raphael, of the glorious seven who stand before the throne of Him who lives and reigns, Angel of health, the Lord has filled your hand with balm from heaven to soothe or cure our pains. Heal or cure the victim of disease, and guide our steps when doubtful of our ways.

 

O Blessed St Roch, Patron of the sick, 
have pity on those who lie upon a bed
of suffering. Your power was so great when you were in this world, 
that by the sign of the Cross, many were healed of their diseases. Now that you are in heaven, your power is no less.

 

Blessed Saint Raphael, Archangel, Because you are the medicine of God, I humbly pray you to heal the many infirmities of the soul and the ills that afflict our bodies.

I beseech you to help me in all my needs and trials of this life, as you, through the power of God, did restore sight and give guidance to young Tobit. I humbly seek your aid and intercession, that our souls may be healed, our bodies protected from all ills, and that through divine grace we may be made fit to dwell in the eternal Glory of God in heaven.

 

Holy and Mighty God, You called St. Roch into a wonderful relationship with You, so that the world might see in him a true example of love, compassion and caring especially for the sick. O God of Our Salvation, You gifted St. Roch with healing power to relieve the suffering and pain of many sick persons in his time. He appeared as an angelic messenger to bring relief from devastating disease. Now I, too, seek the intercession of St. Roch to relieve the anguish of terminal diseases & modern plagues. Protect Your people who call on You
from infection contagion, & fear of disease.
 

Saint Raphael, Archangel, pray for us, so that we may be healed of all afflictions.

St Roch, Pray for us, that we may be relieved from all diseases of body and soul.
