Notre de dame Velankanni, priez pour moi pour que je puisse au moment voulu rejoindre mon fils N.Julien.C qui est au ciel et qui est mon premier enfant.

Aidez-moi dans ma guérison et intercédez pour le pardon de tous mes péchés. Je crois en vous et je vous supplie de me venir en aide. Vous qui avez perdu votre fils, consolez-moi dans la perte de mon bébé s’il vous plaît.
