Patron Saints of Physicians and Pharmacists

 

• Prayer

O Martyr saints of Jesus Christ, Cosma and Damiano, Bestow your pitiful glance on us, and in the midst of the many spiritual and bodily illnesses that surround us, hasten your help.  We ask not only for ourselves, but for our  families, so that restored to health in body and soul, we can give glory to god and honor to you, our protector saints.  AMEN

• Who We Are

This society was formed in 1978 by its founder Joseph DeCandia, Sr. who had imported from Italy, two life-size, hand-carved statues of
SS Cosma and Damiano.

The society began with Our Lady of Grace Parish and St. Helen’s Parish in Howard Beach.
