"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and
the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives,
and the one who seeks, finds, and to the one who knocks, the door

Prayer is an essential tool for healing and is an excellent source of comfort,
courage and strength for those who are suffering. During times of illness,
disease or a life challenge, nothing is more important than to offer prayer
and to join with others in assurance of these prayers.
In addition to prayer, the Saints protect us against harm, help strengthen our
faith and offer spiritual guidance and healing. They are our models of prayer
and their intercession helps present powerful prayers of healing to God on
our behalf.
Our new Patron Saints of Healing line offers hope and comfort to those who
seek healing through the intercession of the Saints. Each holy card and medal
set includes a high-quality prayer card that contains novena prayers specific
to the affliction, a short biography of the patron saint and an oxidized silver
patron saint medal.

Saint Josemaría Escrivá was born in
Barbastro, Spain, on January 9, 1902.

on March 28, 1925. By divine inspiration,
he founded Opus Dei in 1928.
On April 27, 1954, Josemaría suffered
a near fatal anaphylactic shock. He inexplicably

with diabetes for over 10 years, Josemaría
was miraculously cured of the disease.
He died June 26, 1975, of natural causes
and was canonized on October 6, 2002.
Saint Josemaría Escrivá is recognized today
as the patron of those who suffer with diabetes.
His feast day is June 26th.
Saint Josemaría Escrivá, Pray for Us.
