O Good St. Gerard, powerful intercessor before the Throne of God, Wonder-worker of our day, I call upon thee and seek thy aid. While on earth, thou didst always fulfill God’s Holy Will. Beseech the Master of Life from Whom all parenthood proceeds, to bless me with offspring that I may raise up children to God in this life and heirs to the kingdom of His Glory in the life to come. Amen.
