Prayer to Saint Raphael the Archangel

Glorious Archangel Raphael, great Prince of the heavenly court, illustrious for your gifts of wisdom and grace, guide all who journey by land, sea and air, consoler of the afflicted and refuge of sinners: we beg you to assist us in all our needs and in the suffering of life, as once you helped the young Tobias in his travels. We humly pray that you will heal our infirmities of soul and body if it be for the greater glory of God. We especially ask that your angelic purity may help us to be temples of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
