Prayer for serious and urgent needs
Glorious Saint Saint Lawrence, whose mercy and compassion towards the poor earned you the trust of the pontiff, and put in your hands the treasures that were kept in the church for the relief of the most needy and beggars; What means can I use to urge you to help me, other than to remind you of that joy and that great pleasure that your heart felt when you extended your arm? to give help to the poor?
Greater are the riches that you now have in your hands, and great and urgent is my need, That is why I come to you with humble confidence. Why shouldn’t you give me the comfort and glory of helping my need? Stretch out your hand and give me holy charity to resolve my pressing hardships: (Say what you hope to achieve with the intercession of Saint Lawrence).

I hope you present me at the court of God as one of the most faithful and neediest of the poor, I hope you use your power in Heaven and you may grant me the mercy of the Lord, the remedy for my distressing needs, and I may leave behind my financial problems and all the others that cause me distress.
My saint, blessed Lorenzo, man of faith, enlighten my understanding so that she may see the clear light of truth and my ignited will, so that she may love and embrace her and not leave her for all eternity. Glorious Saint Lorenzo, look at my soul so poor of virtues and loaded with faults and guilt, and Reach me from God the help of his graceand thus be able to appear in his Presence.

Thank you Lord, for the gifts you grant, because the testimony and courage of your martyrs, we can contemplate your greatness. Amen.
