Sister Gertrude
We have a potential Saint in the family, Sister Gertrude; the family tree is readable if you enlarge the photo. Sister Gertrude can be found on the top right hand side.
Prayer to obtain graces through the intercession of Sister Gertrude, Poor Clare (Josephine Scanlon)
Lord Jesus, You lovingly called Sister Gertrude to a life of prayer, solitude and penance in the Order of ST. Clare and endowed her with the virtues of humility, simplicity and unconditional obedience thus making her an inspiring example of fidelity, sisterly love and charity, deign we beseech You to glorify her, and hear the requests of all those who ask her intercession especially the petition I now implore, [mention here the favour you wish to pray for]. Grant above all, that we may learn from her how to be always ready to do Your Will and grow steadfastly in love of You. Amen.
