Petitions – 31 January 2026

1. Dear Mother,

I lost my job last August. Please ask Jesus to bless me with a job in His time. I love you, Mama Mary.

2. Dear Blessed Mother Mary,

I come before you with a humble and trusting heart, seeking your loving guidance and intercession. I pray for my husband, that he may find direction in his work and stability in his finances. Intercede for him, Mother Mary, so that he may be strengthened in faith, patience, and perseverance during this time of uncertainty. I offer this prayer with trust and devotion, confident that Your maternal care will guide us through all challenges. Amen.

3. Blessed Mother Mary, who you are loving and compassionate, I come before you with a humble heart. I entrust to you my dear mother who is suffering from brain cancer, and is having difficulty in speaking and walking. Please intercede for her healing, comfort her in pain, and grant her strength and peace each day. Mother Mary, wrap her in your loving care and guide our family with faith and hope. Amen.

4. Dear Mother of Perpetual Help,

I come to you as I am going through a very difficult period. 3 months ago, I was unwell and since then my health deteriorated, resulting in a few hospital admissions, which have affected me mentally. I have been having pains in my neck and head, which have also affected me. Please intercede to Jesus that I will be healed and that the doctor is able to diagnose my condition accurately and provide the best treatment for recovery. Please help me go through this difficult period and help me keep positive.

Your loving and desperate daughter

5. Dear Mama Mary,

My elder daughter had an early miscarriage about two and a half months back. She managed to get pregnant again about 3 weeks ago, but she experienced bleeding again. Mother of Perpetual Help, we seek your intercession in this matter. We know that nothing is impossible with God. We trust in His mercy and grace. Thank you, Mama.

Your Catholic daughter

6. Dear Mother,

Please intercede for us, keeping my immediate and extended family members safe and well, and keeping us loving and united as a family. Please help my 2nd brother who is a cancer-survivor to remain cancer-free and to manage his other health issues well. I pray this will be easily resolved and not be linked to the recurrence of his cancer. Help him also to have a better understanding of church teachings and to become a good Catholic.

Your Loving Daughter

7. Dear Mother,

Please help my husband and I to be more loving and communicative as a couple and good parents to our children. My eldest sister-in-law is having breast cancer. Please intercede for her so that her cancer responds well to treatment and does not worsen. Another sister-in-law is suffering from dementia. Please help her. A family friend was treated for cancer three years ago but has now suffered a relapse. She is undergoing chemotherapy and a clinical trial. Please be with her and if it is God’s will, may she be healed completely.

Your loving daughter

8. Dear Mother,

I pray for the following people: My cousin has to undergo kidney dialysis. Please continue to intercede for her. Another relative was recently hospitalised. Please help her to be restored to good health soon. A church friend went through radiotherapy for early-stage breast cancer. Please help her to be completely healed. Another church friend has just been diagnosed with advanced colon cancer. Please be with him and his family during this difficult time. Another one had a stroke many years ago. Please help him to regain full mobility.

Your loving daughter

9. Dear Mary our mother,

My dad had a heart attack on Jan 2 and had to do emergency triple bypass surgery the following day. It has been some time now and he is still in the ICU recovering. I pray you protect him while he is in there. I pray that the Lord Jesus heals every part of his body completely especially his heart – normalise his heart rate, stabilize his BP and I pray that the fluids in his stomach and lungs disappear. Protect him from complications and infections and bring him back to us. Thank you, dear mother.

Yours faithfully, your daughter

10. Dear Mother Mary,

It was through your intercession that I managed to find my current job and I have been at the current position for the past 1 year. However, as it is a contract job, the contract will be expiring in a few months. I pray fervently that my current role be extended or in the event that I am not extended, please help me to find a suitable role soon so that I do not become unemployed. I also pray for those who are also facing similar circumstances. Please help me not to lose faith and to trust in God’s will.

Your loving son.

11. Dear Mother of Perpetual Help,

Please intercede with Your Son Jesus to help the war in Ukraine come to a swift and just conclusion. Please help Gaza to be rebuilt and governed properly. Please change the hearts of all terrorists and their sponsors to make them seek peace not war. Help the peoples in Myanmar, Ukraine and the Middle East to have lasting peace, justice and stability. Please also help refugees and migrants to find safe havens.

Your loving daughter.
