1⃣ NOVENA TO ST. TERESA OF AVILA

DAY 5 - OCTOBER 10

Pray for us, that we may know how to listen to God.

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.

2⃣ NOVENA TO ST. MARGARET MARY ALACOQUE

DAY 4 - OCTOBER 10

REFLECTION

Have recourse trustfully to God's loving kindness and He will not forsake you, for He longs to bestow His graces. Though you may have had the misfortune to offend Him, He is always ready to receive you, provided you return humbly to Him.

- 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 4 - OCTOBER 10

Saint Gerard, spotless lily of purity, by the angelic virtue and thy wonderful innocence of life you did receive from the Infant Jesus and His Immaculate Mother, sweet pledges of tender love, grant, I beseech you, that I may ever strive manfully in my lifelong fight, and therefore win the crown that awaits the brave and the true.

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.
