The Christmas Novena - Day 2

Today, let's pray for all expectant mothers.

Let's pray especially for those who feel pressured to have an abortion. They need so much love and support.

Let's pray that they may receive the love and support that St. Joseph provided Mary despite there being no room at the inn.

Here are the prayers for today: 
Day 2 (December 17th) - The Christmas Novena 
O Lord, Word of God, You, whose glory is complete, came to us in perfect humility as a child in the womb. Your love for us and Your humility are unsurpassed and bring us to our knees in prayer and worship.
Your incarnation forever changed the world.
All Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning is now and forever shall be, world without end.
Amen.
O Lord, infant Jesus, grant us great humility! You gave us the model of perfect humility in your incarnation, life and death. We pray for a greater Humility this Christmas.
We pray also for these intentions… (State your intentions here)
May Your Holy Will be done in my life and with these intentions.
We pray that the work of salvation that Your first coming began will reach fulfillment in each of us.
All Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning is now and forever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

The Christmas Novena - Day 1

Thank you for joining us in praying the Christmas Novena!

This novena will be dedicated to praying for an end to abortion, and for greater respect for the dignity of all human life! 

When contemplating the birth of our Savior and preparing for Christmas, it is a great time to pray for an end to abortion. After all, Christ came to us as a humble and vulnerable pre-born child. 

You can also post your own intentions here:

One Last Prayer

Happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception!

Thank you for joining us in praying this novena!
 
Here at Pray More Novenas, at the end of every novena, we always pray the following as our final prayer.

But first, we wanted to remind you that today is a Holy Day of Obligation! We like to call it a Holy Day of Opportunity! 
Now, Let us pray...

Dear Lord Jesus, I have specific requests that may only partially fill the infinite needs and desires that are in my heart. I ask that You answer me not only for those requests but also for a greater reliance on You to satisfy the needs and desires that You have given me.

Please grant the prayers of all those who prayed this novena with me. Bless them with Your love and make them holy!

May I seek You with a sincere heart knowing that it will profit me nothing if I gain the whole world yet lose my soul.

So, help me to see Your good and gracious purpose in all my trials. Help me to see Your blessings in every day and help me to love You more.

Thank You for everything, Lord Jesus!

Amen.


Again, thank you for praying with us!

The Immaculate Concepcion Novena - Day 9

We're almost done! We will have one final prayer tomorrow, but first... 
 
If you have had any prayers answered, you can click here to post your experiences.
 
Today, I would like to ask everyone to pray for a very important intention. I want you to pray for yourself. 
 
Not to alleviate your own suffering. We all pray for that all the time :) 
 
Let's pray for the willingness to suffer for the sake of coming closer to Jesus. That is, for holiness. 
 
I want you to pray and ask that God make you a Saint.
 
This is the most important thing. 
 
It's more important than healing, more important than money, more important than everything because by being holy, you will gain everything in Christ. 
 
How are you to be holy? 
 
Christ gave us two great commandments. Love God. Love others as you love yourself. 
 
It's not easy. Love requires sacrifice. We must be willing to sacrifice. That's why we need the Blessed Virgin Mary's prayers and God's grace!
 
Here are the prayers for today:
Day 9 (December 7th) - The Immaculate Conception Novena 
O most pure Virgin Mary conceived without sin, from the very first instant, you were entirely immaculate. O glorious Mary full of grace, you are the mother of my God – the Queen of Angels and of men. I humbly venerate you as the chosen mother of my Savior, Jesus Christ.
The Prince of Peace and the Lord of Lords chose you for the singular grace and honor of being His beloved mother. By the power of His Cross, He preserved you from all sin. Therefore, by His power and love, I have hope and bold confidence in your prayers for my holiness and salvation.
I pray first of all that you would make me worthy to call you my mother and your Son, Jesus, my Lord.
I pray that your prayers will bring me to imitate your holiness and submission to Jesus and the Divine Will.
Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death.
Now, Queen of Heaven, I beg you to beg my Savior to grant me these requests…
(Mention your intentions)
My holy Mother, I know that you were obedient to the will of God. In making this petition, I know that God’s will is more perfect than mine. So, grant that I may receive God’s grace with humility like you.
As my final request, I ask that you pray for me to increase in faith in our risen Lord; I ask that you pray for me to increase in hope in our risen Lord; I ask that you pray for me to increase in love for the risen Jesus!
Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death.

The Immaculate Concepcion Novena Day 8

We hope that you are coming closer to Jesus and Mary in this novena!
 
Today, let's pray for all those who have fallen away from the faith. Let's pray for those who have strayed from the flock of God and those who have rejected their faith. 
 
Jesus says that there will be great rejoicing in Heaven when one who was lost returns to Him.
 
So, let's pray that, especially those close to us, will return to their Church and their loving God!

Immaculate Conception Novena - Day 1


The Feast of the Immaculate Conception is an important day for us to reflect on the Blessed Virgin Mary's life. Her life is the ideal example of the Christian life lived for God.

So we will strive during this novena to imitate Mary, and especially her profound love of God.

To begin, let's pray for all of those who suffer material poverty and go unnoticed, and un-cared for.

Let's pray not only that God will provide for them, but that we may also provide for them.

Let's also pray that we may not take anything for granted in our lives.

One Last Prayer

Happy Feast of St. Jude!

Thank you for joining us in praying through his intercession for impossible causes!
 
Here at Pray More Novenas, at the end of every novena, we always pray the following as our final prayer.
Let us pray...

Dear Lord Jesus, I have specific requests that may only partially fill the infinite needs and desires that are in my heart. I ask that You answer me not only for those requests but also for a greater reliance on You to satisfy the needs and desires that You have given me.

Please grant the prayers of all those who prayed this novena with me. Bless them with Your love and make them holy!

May I seek You with a sincere heart knowing that it will profit me nothing if I gain the whole world yet lose my soul.

So, help me to see Your good and gracious purpose in all my trials. Help me to see Your blessings in every day and help me to love You more.

Thank You for everything, Lord Jesus!

Amen.
Again, thank you for praying with us!

Novena to St. Jude - Day 9

On this last day of the novena, let's pray for the sins in your life that feel impossible to overcome -- that you will be able to overcome them with the grace of God and the intercession of St. Jude.

And with the novena coming to a close, if your prayers have been answered, please leave a comment HERE to let everyone know!
 
Here are the prayers for today:
Day 9 - St Jude Novena 
O St. Jude, holy Apostle, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, you are honored and petitioned by the universal Church, as the patron of desperate, hopeless and impossible cases. Pray for me. I am so very helpless and I feel alone.
Intercede for me that Almighty God may bring swift aid where it is needed most. Come to my assistance in my great time of need!
Pray for me that I may be given the comfort and help of Jesus. Most importantly, I ask that you pray that I may one day join you and all of the saints in heaven to praise God in consolation, rest and joy for all eternity.
I will remember your prayers, O Holy St. Jude. I will honor you as my patron as so many have before me because of the graces God deigns to give freely at your request.
Amen.
 
O righteous Saint Jude, apostle, martyr and companion of Christ, grant that I may grow constantly in a loving relationship with God. In working out my salvation in this life I have infinite needs and desires that God placed within me. Today I turn to you, asking you to intercede for me.
(mention your request)
Saint Jude, I have specific requests of God that may only partially fill the infinite needs and desires that are in my heart. I ask that you pray not only for those requests but also for a greater reliance on God to satisfy the needs and desires that I have. May I seek God with a sincere heart knowing that it will profit me nothing if I gain the whole world yet suffer the loss of my soul. So, help me to see God’s good and gracious purpose in all my trials.
Amen.
St. Jude, pray for me!
Lord Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner!

Amen.
