In every moment of need — in illness, in grief, in fear, in the quiet desperation of an ordinary Tuesday — Catholics have turned to her. Our Mother of Perpetual Help. Her name is a promise: she helps, always, without ceasing. This beautifully laminated prayer card carries that ancient devotion in your pocket, your Bible, or your hands.

At ShopCatholic, every card is created with intention — by Shawn Kilgarlin, a wife, mother of four, mental health clinician, and life coach from Shreveport, Louisiana. Shawn believes that the right prayer at the right moment can change everything. And when you purchase this card, you’re also participating in something bigger: profits from ShopCatholic prayer cards help Shawn continue her mission of giving — donating thousands of Christmas gifts to those in need, supporting addiction recovery ministries, and serving her community year-round.

The Prayer

O Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke thy most powerful name, which is the safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O Purest Mary, O Sweetest Mary, let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me whenever I call on thee, for in all my needs, in all my temptations, I shall never cease to call on thee, ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary, Mary. Amen.
