Thanksgiving – 10 August 2024

1. Dearest Mother,

I am thankful for the wonderful life of the past 53 years. In spite of many problems in my life, you have helped me. I have been coming to Novena Church since I came to Singapore in 2000. In all my difficulties, you always prayed to your Son for me. Once again, thank you very much.

Your Loving Son.

2. Dear Mother Mary,

I thank God so much for healing me emotionally and for giving me peace and self-love and confidence. I am a single mother, and I have full faith that you will help me find meaning and purpose in life. And if it’s God’s will, you will help me find true, pure love.

Your Loving & Grateful Daughter.

3. Dearest Mother Mary,

Thank you for interceding for us. My wife was diagnosed with cancer at 29 weeks of pregnancy. Fast forward 6 months till today, and after chemotherapy, she has received an all clear in all the scans! She just finished her follow-up surgery successfully with no complications. Our son, who was born prematurely, is also doing well under the care of his godparents. I thank God for sending us angels in the form of catholic communities, doctors (who entered our lives through the Lord’s loving guidance) and godparents who reached out to support us in one way or another.

Your Grateful Family.

4. Dearest Mother,

As I cross my 9th year mark in the healthcare industry, I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for looking after me and guiding me through the years. You have also helped me, through your prayers, to find my calling in serving my patients and walking the journey with them, and also experience my first promotion in my career. I am truly and eternally grateful to you and your loving Son, for all the wonderful experiences and valuable lessons I have learned, which have shaped me to become the person I am today.

Your Loving Daughter.

5. Dear Mother Mary,

I give thanks from a grateful heart for your intercession. 5 years ago, my daughter-in-law was facing a crisis in her marriage and despite attending counselling sessions together with my son, things looked bleak. My son did not want to give up and I prayed for healing in their marriage. I am so thankful that both my son and daughter-in-law have worked out their differences in their marriage. What joy it is when they both announced that a baby is on the way! Dear Mother, I thank God for all the blessings.

Your Grateful Daughter.

6. Dear Mother,

Thank you for your intercession. By the grace of God, my mum received a sum of money that allowed for the treatment of my dad by a private doctor. So now he is able to speak and eat. We thank God for the right doctors that were sent to us. 

Your Children.

7. Dearest Mother of Perpetual Help,

I prayed and asked for your intercession to help me with my PR application. I received the good news recently that my application was approved. I have just completed my PR formalities last week and the process went smoothly. My PR was issued and I am now officially a permanent resident of Singapore. Thank you so much, dear Mother, for your help.

Your Loving Son.
