1⃣ NOVENA TO INFANT JESUS OF PRAGUE
DAY 1 - FEBRUARY 4
O! Sweet Child Jesus, here at Your feet is a soul that, conscious of its nothingness, turns to You, who are all. I have so much need of Your help. Look on me, O! Jesus, with love and since You are all powerful, help me in my poverty.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
By Your Divine Infancy, O! Jesus, grant me the grace that I now ask (State your intentions here…) if it is according to Your will and for my true good. Do not look upon my unworthiness, but rather on my faith and show me Your infinite mercy.
V. Blessed be the name of the Lord
R. Now and forever.
PRAYER: O God, who has appointed Your only begotten Son as Saviour of the human race, and wished that He be called Jesus, grant us to be able one day, to contemplate Him face to face in Heaven whose Holy Name we venerate on earth. Amen.
Infant Jesus of Prague, have mercy on us.

3⃣ NOVENA TO OUR LADY OF LOURDES
DAY 3 - FEBRUARY 4
"You are all fair, O Mary, and there is in you no stain of original sin." O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. O brilliant star of sanctity, as on that lovely day, upon a rough rock in Lourdes, you spoke to the child Bernadette and a fountain broke from the plain earth and miracles happened and the great shrine of Lourdes began. So now I beseech you to hear our fervent prayer and do, we beseech you, grant us the petition we now so earnestly seek.
(State your intentions here…)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
PRAYER: O Brilliant star of purity, Mary Immaculate, Our Lady of Lourdes, glorious in your assumption, triumphant in your coronation, show unto us the mercy of the Mother of God, Virgin Mary, Queen and Mother, be our comfort, hope, strength and consolation. Amen.
Our Lady of Lourdes: Pray for us!
St. Bernadette: Pray for us!
