Dear Friend,

My fellow Oblates and I want to pray for the people in your life who are affected by cancer.  Please send me your prayer petitions so we can begin lifting up your loved ones in prayer.

When I receive your prayer requests I will place them in front of the Angel of Healing and Hope statue located at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows.  On the first Monday of each month, a special Mass is celebrated at the Shrine specifically for persons affected by cancer.

You can request Oblate Cards of Hope to send to loved ones who are in need of prayer.  These cards have been specially designed to offer comfort and inspiration to persons affected by cancer.

You may also want to select a special gift to send to someone with cancer as a
reminder that you are praying for them.

On the homepage of this web site is the Oblate Healing and Hope Prayer Chain. You can submit the names of your loved ones (first name and last initial only) affected by cancer and they will remain on the prayer chain for one full year.

 The Missionary Oblates and I would be honored to pray for your loved ones who are struggling with this disease.  Cancer cannot defeat us, especially since we have Christ on our side.

In Jesus Christ and Mary Immaculate,

Fr. John Madigan, O.M.I.
Oblate Director
