    Prayer to Anastácia Livre

     

    Celebration on the 12th and 13th of May.

    It is celebrated every 12th and 13th.

     

    If you have a PROBLEM THAT IS DIFFICULT TO SOLVE and need URGENT HELP, pray Anastácia Livre for help.

     

    Prayer

     

    We see that an oppressor made your life a martyrdom, tyrannically violated your youth, we also see in your soft countenance, in your gentle peaceful face, a peace that suffering was unable to break.

     

    This means that your struggle made you superior, you conquered your voice, so much that God took you to the plains of Heaven and gave you the power to perform cures, graces and a thousand miracles to those who fight for dignity.

     

    Anastácia, you are free, we ask you... pray for us, protect us, wrap us in your mantle of graces and with your kind, firm and penetrating gaze, keep away from us the evils and curses of the world.

     

    Monument to the voice of Anastácia
