1⃣ NOVENA TO ST. TERESA OF AVILA
DAY 4 - OCTOBER 9
Pray for us, that we may love Jesus as St. Teresa did.
PRAYER
O most loving Heavenly Father! We thank you for the great gift you gave us through your beloved St. Teresa of Avila, virgin and doctor of the Church. Her life was a great example of prayer, sacrifice and faith in You. We humbly pray for her most holy intercession…
(State your intentions here...)
St. Teresa, we know that you are a powerful intercessor because of your close relationship to the Holy Mother and Jesus through prayer. Open wide the doors to the interior castle of our hearts and souls so that we may know how to pray!
CLOSING PRAYER
St. Teresa of Avila, you are an example of prayerful holiness that we will try to follow. You are in heaven praising God. With your seat of honor, please beg God to bring me to eternal rest with you.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
Saint Teresa of Avila, pray for us! Amen.

REFLECTION
Keep your heart in peace and let nothing trouble you, not even your faults. You must humble yourself and amend them peacefully, without being discouraged or cast down, for God's dwelling is in peace.
--- St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
PRAYER
Saint Margaret Mary, thou who wast made a partaker of the divine treasures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, obtain for us, we beseech thee, from this adorable Heart, the graces we need so sorely.
(State your intentions here...)
We ask these favors of thee with unbounded confidence. May the divine Heart of Jesus be pleased to bestow them upon us through thy intercession, so that once again He may be loved and glorified through thee. Amen.
Pray for us, O St. Margaret Mary
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

3⃣ NOVENA TO ST. GERARD MAJELLA
DAY 3 - OCTOBER 9
Saint Gerard, bright seraph of love, who despising all earthly love, did consecrate your life to the service of God and your neighbour, promoting God's glory in your lowly state, and ever ready to assist the distressed and console the sorrowful, obtain for me, I beseech thee, that loving God the only good and my neighbour for His sake, I may be hereafter united to Him forever in glory.
Hail Mary...
Pray for us, O Saint Gerard
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
PRAYER
Almighty and Everlasting God, who did draw to Yourself Saint Gerard, even from his tenderest years, making him conformable to the Image of Your Crucified Son, grant we beseech You, that imitating his example, we may be made like unto the same Divine Image, through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.
