1⃣ NOVENA TO ST. PADRE PIO
DAY 7 - SEPTEMBER 20
Beloved St. Padre Pio, you had a most tender devotion to the Mother of God and were known to recite many rosaries and prayers in Her honor each day. Plead for us then before the Holy Mother of God, that She may join us in prayer before Her most Holy Son Jesus, that we might obtain the request we are asking (mention your request)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
PRAYER: Oh most Holy God, we humbly prostrate ourselves before Thy Infinite Majesty, and we adore Thee and dedicate to Thy glory the devout prayers which we now present to Thee, as an act of devotion to your servant, St. Padre Pio, whose intercession we are now imploring.
May God hear and answer our prayer according to His holy will and for His greater glory. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
St. Padre Pio: Pray for us!

2⃣ NOVENA TO ST. VINCENT DE PAUL
DAY 3 - SEPTEMBER 20
TRUTH - REFLECTION
“Notice that it was the people who, seeing what you are doing and the service that our first Sisters rendered to the Poor, have given you this name which has been kept as most fitting for your way of life.” (St. Vincent, 4 March 1658, Conference 93)
PRAYER: St. Vincent, man of truth, be with us as we seek the way of truth that Jesus opened for us while He was with us on His earthly journey.
(State your intentions here...)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
Bless us as we immerse ourselves in the ocean of truth which opens daily before us. May we always seek the better way of the Spirit's guidance now and always. Amen.
St. Vincent De Paul: Pray for us!

3⃣ NOVENA TO MARY UNDOER OF KNOTS
DAY 2 - SEPTEMBER 20
Mary, Beloved Mother, channel of all grace, I return to You today my heart, recognizing that I am a sinner in need of your help. I entrust into Your hands this knot (mention your petition here...) which keeps me from reflecting the glory of God.
Virgin Mary, Mother of fair love, Mother who never refuses to come to the aid of a child in need, Mother whose hands never cease to serve your beloved children because they are moved by the divine love and immense mercy that exist in your heart, cast your compassionate eyes upon me and see the snarl of knots that exists in my life. You know very well how desperate I am, my pain, and how I am bound by these knots. Mary, Mother to whom God entrusted the undoing of the knots in the lives of his children, I entrust into your hands the ribbon of my life. No one, not even the evil one himself, can take it away from your precious care. In your hands there is no knot that cannot be undone. Powerful Mother, by your grace and intercessory power with Your Son and My Liberator, Jesus, take into your hands today this knot.
(Mention your petition here...)
I beg you to undo it for the glory of God, once for all. You are my hope.
O my Lady, you are the only consolation God gives me, the fortification of my feeble strength, the enrichment of my destitution, and, with Christ, the freedom from my chains. Hear my plea. Keep me, guide me, protect me, o safe refuge! Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
Mary, Undoer of Knots: Pray for me!

4⃣ NOVENA TO ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL
DAY 1 - SEPTEMBER 20
OPENING PRAYER: St. Michael the Archangel, we honor you as a powerful protector of the Church and guardian of our souls. Inspire us with your humility, courage and strength that we may reject sin and perfect our love for our Heavenly Father.
In your strength and humility, slay the evil and pride in our hearts so that nothing will keep us from God.
St. Michael the Archangel, pray that we may be blessed by God with the zeal to live our lives in accordance with Christ's teachings.
CLOSING PRAYER: St. Michael the Archangel, you are the prince of angels but in your humility you recognized that God is God and you are but His servant. Unlike Satan, you were not overcome with pride but were steadfast in humility. Pray that we will have this same humility.
It is in the spirit of that humility that we ask for your intercession for our petitions…
(State your intentions here...)
“Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.” Amen.
