The rescue of the sailors by St. Nicholas

St. Nicholas is one of the saints of our Catholic Church who worked the most miracles during his lifetime. He became much better known and venerated in Eastern Europe, especially in Russia, in both Catholic and Orthodox churches. So let's ask for his intercession for the civilians who are suffering from the war between Russia and Ukraine. 

He is also the intercessor for many people and professions, but especially for sailors, merchants and children. During his lifetime, he loved the poor and children very much - giving them gifts. The secular world, however, has distorted his image and turned him into Santa Claus, subtracting his aspects of Christianity and holiness. Children and young people, that's it: "the good old man", the Santa Claus you've always known, was a great saint and servant of God, performing countless miracles in his lifetime that converted multitudes. 

Parents, teach your children who the real Santa Claus is: the saint and example of Christian life, St. Nicholas! TIn this post, we bring you this miracle in the video produced below by the Miraculum team, which reports on his special protection of sailors, but with such an abundance of miracles, we'll bring you many more over time, so stay tuned!

PRAYERS TO SAINT NICHOLAS 

"Lord, through the merits of St. Nicholas, grant me the grace of kindness and zeal towards the most afflicted, the needy and especially towards children. May I know how to deepen in myself the gifts you have given me by putting them into practice. Deliver me from omission and laziness. Amen. St. Nicholas, pray for us." 

"Almighty God, hear our prayers and let us worship you by paying homage to St. Nicholas. Be blessed and praised forever for the gifts you have bestowed on this saint of yours, and for having given us St. Nicholas as our protector. Saint Nicholas, protect me from the dangers of the sea. Saint Nicholas, guide me. Saint Nicholas, help me"

“Oh, Saint Nicholas, today I come to you to ask my Lord for mercy. Through your wonderful intercession, may you keep me safe in the midst of all the dangers that may arise throughout my life. Grant me what I ask for so faithfully so that I can advance unhindered on the path to salvation. Amen.”
