The Novenário

A novena for every season — the saints and feasts of the whole year, one nine-day journey at a time.

A novena is nine days of prayer held in a single intention — the Church's oldest way of waiting, after the Apostles and Mary prayed nine days for the Holy Spirit. This collection follows the year: a novena to prepare for each great feast and to keep company with the saints on their days. Begin one on the date suggested, or pray any of them whenever your heart has need.
