Many people petition the well loved St. Expedite, also known as San Expedito, for when they need quick resolution to a problem, “Fast Luck”, or ‘things in a hurry’. I have written a few blogs here on Free Candle Spells regarding different ways to petition him. There is a belief that when he gives you what you want, you need to “pay” him with pound cake and red wine. Let me share my latest experience with you about my petitioning Saint Expedite.

Last week, a new family-themed restaurant was being built in our area and there was a call for applicants. Three of my immediate relatives were interested in working at this new place. Two of them are currently employed, one was not. They chose to go together and wait in the hot sun in very long lines outside to fill out applications and hopefully obtain an interview. The day this was to happen was a Thursday. On Wednesday, I wrote a simple petition on a notepad paper, asking Saint Expedite to give my three relatives (I listed each of their names) a job with this corporation. I placed the petition on a small glass plate, cleansed and anointed a candle with St. Expedite Anointing Oil, and lit the candle in front of my statue.

On Thursday, one of the three went on to the first of two interviews, with a “call back” on the next day, Friday. They went to it and was told that they would contact them after they did a background check. That told me right there that if they were going to pay for a background check, he was in the running. The candle burned through the weekend, ending on Monday sometime. Mid-day Monday, the relative received a call back that he had been accepted for employment. I left the candle alone until I went to the store. I bought his obligatory Sara Lee pound cake and gave it to him with a nice glass of red merlot wine. I also wrote “Thank You” in red ink across my petition and lit a red candle. Here is the photo for you to see how to “pay him what he wants” when you receive a blessing from Saint Expedite:

Many thanks Saint Expedee!

April 19th is the Feast Day of St. Expedite and as promised in my newsletter, I am devoting many articles this month to him. While perusing the Internet yesterday, I found something that every hard core “Expedee” follower might want to own. They say that some in love “wear their heart on their sleeve” but I say why not wear who you love on your chest? Huh?

Yes, an icon of American freedom of speech and comfort, you can now own a tee shirt with the image of Saint Expedite on it! It comes in navy blue and red as well as other colors and you may order it by clicking here: St Expedite T Shirt.

 

Celebrate in the feast day of New Orleans’ favorite Patron Saint, Expedite on April 19, 2012. I will be setting up an altar devoted completely to him, with flowers, water and red candles beginning on Wednesday the 18th, as Wednesdays are considered his day to light petition candles. St. Expedito, as he is known in the Latino community, is well loved by those who need his assistance with problems that arise quickly and when emergency money is needed.

You can participate in this event by ordering a candle for your petition to St. Expedite, allegedly said to bring you “Fast Luck” and “things in a hurry”. Each vigil candle will be cleansed and blessed with St. Expedite Anointing Oil and placed with your petition under the candle. Each candle will remain until the end of the service, at which time a photo will be taken and sent to you. Your petitions will be burnt with frankincense and myrrh as a burnt offering to waft to the Heavens.

 We have stopped taking orders for this feast day candle vigil as of 6:20 pm pacific so we can set up the altar and prepare. Thank you for your interest. – J.

Each donation for a candle for St. Expedite is only $6.00 and once you order, you will be asked to create a petition that can be printed and placed under your candle. At this very special price, it would be a blessing for the whole family to have a candle burned in their behalf for blessings from this well loved Roman centurion and Saint.
