History and prayers to Saint George ► Protector of domestic animals

Saint Saint George

"Lord, may your blessing come to (say the name of the animal) at this moment and with your miraculous power help to heal it. Saint George Blessed, intercede before God, since your wisdom is divine and your healing power is great.

I know that God placed animals in the world to teach us sublime things, such as: unconditional love and it is for this love that I ask for this four-legged creature that is sick, that it be rehabilitated and that it be healed by you, Saint Blessed George, by your divine grace.

I am with a heavy heart because I can do nothing, but I trust in your blessed strength. Saint George Blessed, in you I trust and gave (again the name of the animal) into your healing and divine hands.

At this moment, I raise my thoughts to also ask the doctors of healing, of the greater spirituality to work and help in this battle, eliminating the diseases and suffering of this beloved animal.

Blessed Saint George, may healing be present from this prayer and may (name of animal) obtain health today, tomorrow and always. Amen.”

Saint George is part of the 14 holy helpers of the Catholic Church. In this group of saints, their power is to intercede for the health and care of domestic animals.

That is why we dedicate the previous prayer to him, so that he helps our pet or the animal for which we want to pray for healing.

Legend and history of Santo San Jorge:

As we pointed out, there is no historical data of this saint, there are only mentions in several books, such as in the palimpsest Acta sanctórum or in the Legenda sanctórum.

It is said that his name was Gueorguios and that he enlisted in the Roman army, following in his father's footsteps.

When he was thirty years old, he was posted to Nicomedia where he worked as a personal guard for the Roman Emperor Diocletian.

In the year 303, the emperor Diocletian ordered a persecution against the Christians, but the tribune Gueorguios refused to act and confessed that he was a Christian.

It is said that Diocletian ordered him to recant and abandon his faith, but Gueorguios refused, and was sentenced to death and beheaded in front of the walls of Nicomedia on April 23, 303.

The saint who was resurrected three times according to legend:

The authors changed the death of Saint George in each book, some, even saying that the soldier would have died and risen three times:

  • first he was poisoned,
  • In the next death he was cut in two from top to bottom by a wheel of swords,
  • and finally in the third death he was burned until his corpse was reduced to ashes.

Saint George Blessed and the dragon

The legend around Saint George tells that the soldier had killed a dragon that had terrified the inhabitants of a place.

It is said that when the beast kidnapped the princess Cleodolinda, the daughter of some king, Saint George came to rescue her, brandishing the sword on the back of his white horse, and killed the dragon.

From the blood of the slain monster sprouted a rose that the hero gave to the king's daughter.

in the womb of the Virgin Mary,

so I will be protected under your mantle,

having you in front of me,

armed with your spear and your shield.

Amen.
