So... S&S was out of the oil when I needed it, but I must report that I dutifully used S&S's excellent write-up with instruction for working with St Expeditus.
I was selling my house (in the dead of summer) and asked for at least two offers, and quickly. I actually got 3 offers, from the same buyer. The third offer on day 22 was the right number and we accepted, inspections are over and closing is within a month. (I'll need his help with getting everything packed up – fast!)
I made an altar using his handsome statue (Amazon), surrounded him with a red candle, red geranium and other flowers, and my real estate agent's card. Some days I gave him hibiscus tea. Later, I poured him some Merlot in a little dollhouse size goblet. Most importantly, my husband and I dutifully petitioned him using the S&S write up. And we put his laminated card under the door mat. (S&S's petition instructions are a skillion times better than the back of the prayer card.)
My son, who possesses the unique and quick thinking of the Aquarian that he is, suggested I put out some Ketchup for St. Expeditus when I told him he liked red stuff and red food. So I did. Then my son suggested I promise Saint Expeditus some "fast" (get it?) food in the form of French Fries to go with it when a contract was delivered, and that's exactly what I did.
I hope S&S replenishes the oil in the future. I promised St. E I would sing his praises, so I hope it's okay to post my experience here. I am grateful that this all went so quickly. Saint Expeditus and I have become fast friends.
