1⃣ NOVENA TO ST. ALOYSIUS GONZAGA

DAY 3 - JUNE 14

Lord, we thank You for giving us St. Aloysius Gonzaga as an example of holiness. Help us to imitate the love of You that led him to follow his religious vocation and enter the Jesuits. St. Aloysius Gonzaga, you felt called to serve God in a radical way ever since you were young. You felt drawn to missionary work, and you longed to become a Jesuit priest. Please bring my petitions before God Whom you loved so deeply!

(State your intentions here…)

Your family was opposed to your vocation, but you did not waver in your determination. Despite pressure from your family and the loss of your inheritance, you wholeheartedly served God as a Jesuit. Pray for me, that I may serve God as wholeheartedly as you did. Pray that I may never allow obstacles to deter me from answering God's call. Amen.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...

St. Aloysius Gonzaga: Pray for us!

2⃣ NOVENA TO ST. THOMAS MORE

DAY 2 - JUNE 14

REFLECTION: DILIGENCE AND PERSISTENCE

Lord God, we honor the memory of our Saint, Saint Thomas More.

In his earthly life, he was a model of diligence.
He shunned procrastination, applied himself with fervor to his studies, and spared no effort in achieving mastery in any skill.
We ask that you grant to us, through his prayers and intercession, the virtues of diligence and persistence.

We also ask that, through his powerful intercession, we may obtain the favors we seek in this novena:

(State your intentions here…)

But if what we ask is not for the glory of God and the good of our souls, grant us, we pray, what is more conducive to both. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

St. Thomas More: Pray for us!
