As a cancer sufferer himself, Peregrine Laziosi, a 13th century religious, has long been acknowledged as the special companion of people living with cancer.

This booklet recounts his story and contains thoughtful insights on sickness and original, inspired prayers about St Peregrine and cancer, with a completely new Novena, Litany of St Peregrine and Votive Mass with readings and intercessions. With numerous personal and group prayers in favour of the sick, this booklet will surely bring comfort, strength and a sense of solidarity to those touched by cancer.
