Have a vigil light set and worked on my Jesus Malverde altar in a community altar work service beginning on Saturday, May 3rd, which serves as the feast day of this folk saint. There is some wiggle room and you can join up after the work starts as long as you see that there are still spots left and it doesn’t say “sold out.” Jesus Malverde, also known as the Angel of the Poor or the Generous Bandit, is a folk saint who is said to have lived and died in late 19th/early 20th century Sinaloa, Mexico. His reputation as a sort of Robin Hood figure began...

Have a light fixed, dressed, blessed, set on my St. Expedite altar, and burned for you in a community altar work service for this famed and beloved patron saint of fast results. St. Expedite’s feast day is April 19th, and while you can petition him any day of the year, you might be able to get a little extra bang for your buck on his feast day.  But beyond that, his feast day would be an excellent time to thank him for previous services rendered if you already work with him but don’t have the time/space to do anything very elaborate with...

The Chaplet of the Dead is a four-decade rosary that includes prayers such as the De Profundis (Psalm 130) and prayers...

Have your petition set with a fixed, dressed, blessed light on my St. Cyprian altar for a nine-day novena, chaplet, and community altar service for the Cyprianic Holy Days, September 17-25, 2024. During the work, I will construct and consecrate a custom paket for each participant booking the continuous vigil option (meaning you have lights set and burning 24/7 for the duration of the nine-day service). I'll ship it to you after the work is complete with care and feeding instructions. Each one is custom - no two are alike, and size/shape can vary depending on your intention for the...
