Petitions For The Intercession of Saint John Paul II

Are you or someone in your family or community in need of prayers? Consider submitting your petitions to the Saint John Paul II Shrine, where we will seek the intercession of the late Holy Father for your prayer requests. There is a form for submission on the Shrine’s website.

You can also say this prayer, which we recite every day here at the Shrine:

O Blessed Trinity, we thank you
for having graced the Church with
Saint John Paul II and for allowing
the tenderness of your fatherly care,
the glory of the Cross of Christ
and the splendor of the Spirit of love
to shine through him.
Trusting fully in your infinite mercy
and in the maternal intercession of Mary,
he has given us a living image of
Jesus the Good Shepherd.
He has shown us that holiness
is the necessary measure of ordinary
Christian life and is the way of
achieving eternal communion with you.
Grant us, by his intercession,
and according to your will,
the graces we implore,
through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Through the Intercession of Blessed John Paul II

Anyone in need of prayers, specifically through the intercession of Blessed John Paul II, may now post their petitions online through the Blessed John Paul II Shrine website. Shrine staff will offer these petitions up as they celebrate their daily Eucharist, and other faithful members of the Church will be able to view petitions and offer them up as well.

Blessed John Paul II was one the greatest men to walk the Earth, and we can be sure that his intercession for us in Heaven has great meaning and power. Ask for his help, and let us know if we can ask him as well.
