I use to work at a Italian restaurant in Manassas, VA and a couple one night showed up pretty late for dinner and we started having a conversation about their trip they made to New York and how the visited St Patricks Cathedral told me how beautiful it was and suggested that if I'm ever in New York To Visit. We started to speak about family asked if I had any children but back then when I met them I was single and we got pretty deep in our conversation. towards the end before they paid they gave me the prayer card and told me they would always have me in their prayers this was about 5 yrs ago or so but today I was cleaning out a shoe box I had full of things and stumbled upon the prayer card and I started to read the prayer it has in the back

and now that I'm TTC it hit me really deep I broke down in tears. I had a MC back in July 2016 and then in May 2017 i had a chemical Pregnancy but i know God works in mysterious ways and i know that he will bless us all someday. The following are 2 prayers I found online:

This first prayer to St. Gerard is for Motherhood:

O good St Gerard, powerful intercessor before God and wonder worker of our day, confidently I call upon you and seek your aid. On Earth you always fulfilled God's designs, help me now to do the holy will of God. Implore the Master of Life, from whom all paternity proceeds, to render me fruitful in offspring, that I may raise up children to God in this life, and in the world to come, heirs to the Kingdom of His Glory. Amen.

This second one, known as a “Prayer for a Safe Delivery,” touches on a cross St. Gerard had to bear, when he was falsely accused by a pregnant woman of fathering her baby. He answered her charges with the same stoic silence as our Lord did when facing His accusers during His Passion.

Fortunately, the woman publicly recanted her false accusation before long, which only enhanced St. Gerard’s reputation for sanctity in having borne this accusation in a dignified manner.

O great Saint Gerard, beloved servant of Jesus Christ, perfect imitator of your meek and humble Savior, and devoted child of Mother of God, enkindle within my heart one spark of that heavenly fire of charity which glowed in your heart and made you an angel of love. O glorious Saint Gerard, because when falsely accused of crime, you did bear, like your Divine Master, without murmur or complaint, the calumnies of wicked men, you have been raised up by God as the patron and protector of expectant mothers. Preserve me from danger and from the excessive pains accompanying childbirth, and shield the child which I now carry, that it may see the light of day and receive the purifying and life-giving waters of baptism through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
