NOVENA PRAYERS

NOVENA TO ST. KURIAKOSE ELIAS CHAVARA

DAY 5 - FEBRUARY 13

Oh St. Kuriakose, you were convinced that the power and nobility of the human mind lies in practising prudence, patience, and mercy. You lived an exemplary life filled with patience and suffering. Intercede for us so that we may obtain the grace to love our enemies and dedicate our lives in service to others' wellbeing. We take refuge in your patronage. We trust in your intercession and ask you to obtain for us this particular favour (State your intentions here…) from our merciful Abba, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...

PRAYER: Oh Almighty God, St. Kuriakose lived a holy life in your presence and became your pleasing servant through continuous meditation, prayer and service to the Holy Church. Mercifully look upon us who seek refuge in the patronage of this holy servant of yours. Oh Lord, we beseech you to cure the sick, console the sorrowful, bless the couples without children, grant students the gift of knowledge, provide shelter to those in economic hardships, preserve the priests and religious in holiness, and establish peace and joy in our families. We pray that You call children from our homes for the service of the Holy Church. Accept our prayers and bless us through St. Kuriakose, your humble servant and our beloved patron. Amen.

St. Kuriakose Elias Chavara: Pray for us!
