St. Gemma is known as a great mystics of the Church. She is a patroness of students and pharmacists. On the front of the card is her image on the back a prayer for her intercession.
Oh holy Gemma, I am near you, help me to
pray. You who know what I and those near
me need; look after my urgent needs
and my spiritual and material wants.
You take care of them! I confide in you
and entrust all to your loving care.
Offer up to Jesus that tender and constant
care that you bore Him here on earth.
Oh holy Gemma, you who physically
suffered all the pains of the Passion of
Jesus, I beseech of you the grace to meditate
on and live the Passion of Jesus, and the
sufferings of Holy Mary.
Pray that I will be able to walk in the path
of humility, simplicity, love and sacrifice,
fulfilling at all times and in all ways, the
Holy Will of God. Let me live united with
Jesus, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and you, for
all eternity.
Amen.
