Our mission is to pray for all those trying to conceive, all expectant mothers, especially those in crisis pregnancies.
Around 1755 in Oliveto Citra, Italy, “….as he [St. Gerard] was going away from a certain house he happened to leave his handkerchief on a chair. A young girl noticed it and handed it to him. "No," said Saint Gerard, "do you keep it yourself. Perhaps one day it will be of use to you." As a matter of fact, when, in years to come, this girl, now married, was in her first confinement, she was at the point of death. She then invoked her Holy Patrons, but experienced no relief, until in her extremity she thought of Brother Gerard's handkerchief. As soon as this was brought to her the baby was safely born and all went well.”
