Novena to St. Padre Pio

Opening prayer:

St. Padre Pio, faithful servant of God and bearer of the wounds of Christ, you who spent yourself for sinners at the altar and in the confessional, draw near to me now. Obtain for me a deeper love of Jesus and confidence in His mercy. Amen.

Read the meditation and offer the intention of the day.

Day 7: Devotion to Our Lady

Padre Pio loved the Rosary above all his other prayers, calling it the weapon for our times and rarely letting the beads leave his hands. He entrusted every soul and every need to the Mother of God. He counted countless rosaries each day, and called Mary his little Mother, certain that no one who flees to her protection is ever left unaided in the hour of need.

O Padre Pio, faithful son of Our Lady, obtain for me a tender love for the Mother of God. Place in my hands the Rosary you so cherished, and teach me to fly to Mary in every need, that through her maternal care I may be drawn ever closer to her Son. Amen.

Today's intention:

For a faithful daily devotion to Our Lady through the Rosary.

Pray one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

Our Father

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Pater noster, qui es in cælis,

sanctificétur nomen tuum.

Advéniat regnum tuum.

Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.

Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie,

et dimítte nobis débita nostra,

sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris.

Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem,

sed líbera nos a malo.

Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou amongst 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.

Amen.

Ave María, grátia plena, Dóminus tecum.

Benedícta tu in muliéribus,

et benedíctus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.

Sancta María, Mater Dei,

ora pro nobis peccatóribus,

nunc et in hora mortis nostræ.

Amen.

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,

world without end.

Amen.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper,

et in sǽcula sæculórum.

Amen.

Closing prayer:

St. Padre Pio, who taught us to pray, to hope, and not to worry, intercede for me before the throne of God. Win for me the grace I seek and, above all, the will to belong wholly to Christ. Amen.
