Prayers to San Roque

Patron Saint of Italy, Plaque, Cholera, Knee Problems, Dogs, Falsely Accused

Novena to San Roque

Let us begin, In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 

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. Offer to God our sighs and tears and obtain for us the physical and spiritual health we seek…

 (Mention your request here…)

 This we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. St Roch: Pray for us, that we may be relieved from all diseases of body and soul. 

(Repeat 3 times) Lord Jesus, may thy will be done. 

Saint Roch, pray for us 

Say 1: Our Father…  Say 1: Hail Mary… Say 1: Glory Be…

O, Great San Roque, deliver us we pray to you, from the afflictions of this earth; through your intercession preserve our bodies from contagious diseases, and our soul from the contagion of sin. Obtain for us the purest of air; but, above all, purity of heart, assist us to make good use of health, to bear suffering with patience; and, after your example, to live in the practice of penance and charity, that we may one day enjoy the happiness which you have earned by your virtues. Amen.
