  12. 2020 has been a difficult year for us as well as so many others. One of my daughter’s became pregnant and it was unexpected at best but her health and the health of the baby were in jeopardy. I prayed that they we would have an outcome that would be the best for both. Unfortunately she lost the baby last weekend at 4 months. It was difficult for sure however the outcome is truly positive. We adopted two daughters from the same family and both have serious blood issues. We now have a doctor that will be seeing both and hopefully will finally solve this situation. At least we now that they will be able to have children. Of course with 6 children I think I was praying for way too much. His bless all and stay safe. Merry Christmas and peace to the New Year.

  13. About 2 years ago, I had cancer surgery. Before the surgery, several did a Novena. Saint Peregrine Laziosi is the patron saint for cancer and several asked me how I pronounce his name – I shrugged my shoulders. While I was in the hospital, I had a dream St. Peregrine asked me how I pronounce my name, a lot are praying for you. (How to pronounce my last name throws people). Almost 2 years cancer free, thanks

  14. I was helped to find solutions to eye issues, car transmission issues, raking leaves without raking them, and a better phone call with my daughter-in-law. Many thanks.

  16. One of my prayers I prayed that my Grandkids would marry someone who would be their life partners and love them more than I did. One of my Grandsons had been dating a girl for over a year. They were both out out of college and had jobs. So ready they were both ready for their next step in their lives. The last day of the novena they broke up!!!!

  17. My Sis didn’t receive perfect news but better then we thought. Thank you God still praying that the horrible pain she has to live with will ease so she can have quality of life an not just exist thank you God. Thanks for prayers for her.

  18. My intention for this novena was to get some relief from chronic back pain. This novena showed me what to do to get
    much needed relief!

  19. Hello and peace be with you! I have been very concerned about my 18 yr old daughter who was battling a very serious, life threatening mental illness for several years. She reconnected with a boyfriend from the past and we were very concerned that she would relapse. I have been praying for her to make healthy choices especially in her relationships as well as praying for me to trust in the Lord, that she will be guided and protected. We recently had him over for dinner and really enjoyed his company. In the past we never got to know him. I am more at peace and of course will keep praying🙏😇🌠

  20. I’ve been asking Jesus for the gift of a white Christmas, and yesterday He gave us a big snowstorm to cover all the brown outside! Thank you, Jesus, and thank you, Our Lady of the Snows!

  21. I try to participate in as many novenas as I can over the past several years. I am thankful for all my blessings. At the forefront of my prayers is that my husband would heal from alcoholism and that I would be able to take the gifts I have been given to provide for my family during his illness. I am thankful for the his current sobriety. I hope everyone’s prayers are answered and that they have peace. 🎄

  22. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2007. Had 3 separate procedures in 2007, 2009, 2014 but the cancer kept returning because I was exposed to Agent Orange in combat in Vietnam and there is no way to rid your body of the Agent Orange. Last October 2019 the cancer filled my prostate and spread outside into my lymph nodes, 2 vertebrae in my spine and into my pelvic bone. In October 2019 my PSA was 22.5, September 2020 was 10 and now, December 21 is 3.5. I and many have been praying for me for the riddance of cancer from my body. Prayer works; PSA below 4 is very positive. Thank God, thank you for these prayer sessions and I am so grateful to all who have prayed for me; and to Our Lord for ridding most of the Cancer from my body. AMEN.

    I want to wish John-Paul, Annie and All those in the PMN Community a Blessed Merry Christmas!

    Thank you to John-Paul and Annie for making these Novenas available. Looking forward to the next Novena in 2021!🙏🎄🌹❤️

  27. During the novena, I had to get a CT scan of my remaining
    lung for formations (GGOs) that were seen in a previous scan.
    Since I have had a lobectomy of my left lung, these were
    anxious moments waiting for two months to test again.
    God is good, I had the CT in December and the formations
    were barely visible. The thoracic surgeon said they were probably
    a result of an infection or pneumonia, but now most are gone or
    barely there. If it had been cancer, it would have been 4th stage
    and inoperable. The power of prayers and love! The best
    Christmas present ever!

  28. My husband and I have had the coronavirus. I lost my sense of smell/taste on the 2nd day. I prayed during this novena that my taste would return. On day 8 of the novena, my smell and taste returned! Absolutely miraculous!

  29. My prayer intention was for my relationship with my husband to be stronger. Week 2 of Advent my husband started doing Fr. Tour’s Holy Family reflections with me. We’ve shared Advent this year together in prayer, reflection and discussion. Both of us want to continue sharing in this way. We’ll see how the Lord guides us!
    Thank you Holy Family and this Novena prayer community.
    Thank you John Paul and Annie.
    Have a Blessed Christmas Season.

A gentleman helped me get him out of the car and took him inside for me. There was a parking place near. Praise be to God! Then another gentleman helped him in the car. Thank you Jesus for this blessing.

  33. I prayed for my daughter’s speedy and complete recovery from the coronavirus and for protection of all my family members from the covid virus and all prayers were answered.

  45. I am continuing to pray for a greater respect for ALL lives. We need to continue to pray for this because God created all mankind and all races are important and should be dealt with the same. No race is better than the other…God created all in his image and likness and I pray that the churches and individuals will continue to pray for unity and to deliver all who think that they are better than others.🙏🏾

  66. My dear friend Pam P went home to Heaven after being anointed by a Priest! Also that her brother Mark P made it up there to be with her in her final days! 🙏🏻😇❤️ Thank you dear Lord!

  67. I prayed for my mother, who was on hospice care, to pass away on December 12, the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. This would also have been the anniversary of her mother-in-law’s death. Instead, I was given a much sweeter gift! She passed on the next day, Gaudete Sunday, a day to rejoice, while I sat holding her hand and talking to my dad on the phone, with the phone on speaker so that she could hear both of us. She had divorced him years ago, which she later regretted, and he remained faithful to her care to the end. For a person who suffered from depression her entire life, it was wonderful that she died on a day to rejoice!

  68. My mom’s Whipple surgery was a success. Please pray that her recovery goes well as this is a long process. Thank you Saint Peregrine.
