  1. Had a problem in paying college fees for my daughter, but during Novenna prayers a grandmother has come to our rescue and paid everything. Also friends came to the rescue and assisted financially for their commuting to college daily. God is good all the time, and all the times God is good. We praise Him always…

  2. I am filled with so much peace and I have finally decided on my wedding date. I just pray that God finds it pleasing and accepts it so that my family and I can continue pursuing holier family dynamics. Thank You, Father God for your Grace and Mercy over our lives. We proclaim Your Sovereignty over all spheres in our lives.

  3. My marriage was having some serious problems and I had filled out divorce proceedings online and just needed to make payments and get the ball rolling and I just decided to pray the prayer that day and see what would happen and I decided to go home late. When I got home my husband begged me all night to make things right and I just knew it had to be the Lords doing and I’m glad I prayed that day

  4. I trust that God’s perfect time is near so I can rejoice of a suitable job, good health, healing, peace of mind and true love.

    Mother Mary has been an inspiration to become the mother I should be, loving, gentle and kind. Help me steer my children to focus on being righteous despite the influences of this world. As a daughter, I humbly ask you to grant me time and resources to be able to help my parents and provide relief.

    Praise and honor to You Lord Lord Jesus and Mother Mary.

  5. Thank Lord Jesus and Mother Mary for hearing my prayers. My husband has changed a bit for good and our finances are better. Amen.

  6. Lord God, thank you for hearing my prayers of keeping my family safe and to make it possible that David heard your voice and decided to go back to school. Lord, so far, he has been doing well and still keeping down his little job, Lord I beg you to keep your protective arm around him so that that the angels of the devil who disguise as friends will not come near him again. Please bring only friends who will point him in the right direction and make him a better human being, this I pray in the name of Jesus our Savior, Amen.

  7. Thank you my Mother Mary for your intercession, my husband has been blessed with a job.. Thank you to everyone who prayed this Novena with me, Our Mother Mary will always intercede for us.. Amen 🙏

  13. I believe this Novena revealed to me the Lord’s will for me to take the religious sacraments and join the clergy as a nun and wife of Christ. It is not exactly my will, not exactly what I was praying for, but I submit to God’s will for my life and joyously adjust while I make this transition. Pray for me and my stubborn heart that still wants to cling to earthly marriage. I pray marriage blessings to all who are praying for them, all who need them, even and especially those who have taken vows of chastity and married their vocation as clergy. I love you Lord, thank you so much for loving and forgiving this wicked heart. All praise be to you.
    Amen.

  57. I pray daily for my son who is mentally ill and presently in the hospital and my husband who is in treatment for cancer. Please pray for us so we may receive blessings from God thru the intersession of the holy family and novenas to the saints.

  58. Before praying this novena I had a feelimg that something in our relationship in my family is not okay. My intention for this novena was simpy praying for our family. And God answered my prayer during the 8th day. Our Youth group had to prepare music and texts for friday adoration. Our theme was hope. And we asked my father if he could prepare something from his life connected with hope and say his testimony during this adoration. My mother didn’t want to go to our adoration.She doesn’t go on friday masses very often. But I begged her to go. So she did. I know she has trpubles with our parish and she has also some problems with her relationship with God. But when my father was talking about Holy Spirit during his testimony she came to him and asked for the microphone. Everyone was surprised. And she started to talk about reading the Bible during the Sievers seminar and how she didn’t want to read it and she didn’t even want to be in this seminar. And she even was talking about the Holy Spirit and how she said yes to him and his gifts. And it meant a lot for me. And for my father. This openess. And that she said this in front of people from aour parish. I think this was because of Mother Mary. And her intersession. Thank you.
