Saint in Review: St. Pancratius
Feast day: May 12. There is little to be said much of the martyr saint, St. Pancratius. In other sources, he is called Pancras. He is said to have been a young soldier or a young lad who was martyred in the early Christian centuries.
What is particularly special about this saint is a classic devotion that developed in honor of him. This devotion is a nine-day novena and usually prayed by those who want to ask God through his intercession for: work and good health, for successful endeavours, and to be free from adversities and from ill-intentioned persons. This is a very effective novena that is not known by many. But it is prayed by many in other countries, many of them in Europe.
This novena is really good for earning a living and for success in life. If you buy a statue of St. Pancratius, he is usually depicted as a young lad holding a book which has a Latin inscription that means (not exact translation) "I give every good thing to those who come to me" and with the right hand of the saint pointed upward to heaven. The colors usually of the statue are a combination of red, white and green. He also holds a parsley leaf in one of his hands. Parsley is said to have many health benefits.
May this novena help you find a job or begin a business that will help you see and realize that all good things come from God.
