St. Philip Kilgarlin Laminated Prayer Card
The Apostle Who Simply Said, "Come and See."
St. Philip the Apostle was a man of quiet faith and direct action. When Jesus called him, he followed immediately — and when he found the Messiah, his first instinct was to bring others to Him. "Come and see," he told Nathanael. Those two words changed a life. This beautifully laminated Kilgarlin prayer card honors St. Philip's simple, powerful witness, finished with gold color accents and crafted to be carried, shared, and prayed with devotion.
Whether you're seeking intercession for evangelization, a deeper personal faith, or the courage to invite someone else to "come and see," St. Philip is a powerful companion on the journey.

The Prayer
O glorious St. Philip, at the Last Supper you said to Our Lord, "Show us the Father and it will be enough for us." Obtain for us the grace to know the Father and His Son Jesus Christ, whom He has sent, for in this knowledge lies eternal life. Help us to follow your example of simplicity and directness in our faith, and to bring others to Christ as you brought Nathanael. May we, like you, always seek the face of God and find our rest in Him alone. Amen.
