  30. God provided us with two cars in the middle of the Novena- this was totally unexpected but so much needed- my husband didn’t have reliable transportation to get to work and my daughter was beginning college but had no car to commute with:) God is good- all the time! All the time- God is good!

  31. For the first time in two and a half years, my husband, who was never baptized, avoids all aspects of faith and claims to be agnostic, who also seldom attended Mass with me and our children over the last 41 years of our marriage, went to Mass with me.
    I have also noticed less tension between my grown children.
    Thank you Blessed Mother for interceding on behalf of my family!

  32. Our marriage is just a year old and was shaken by a third person’s interference since our wedding preparation. Jealousy, possessiveness and hatred towards me turned the person into a dominance person in my husband’s life. This crisis brought me closer to Jesus, whereby I began to spend more time on prayers and that’s when I subscribe to this prayer page and was introduced to novenas. Recently this novena for marriage and family has been a miracle in our marriage, where God almighty and Mama Mary’s intercession have drifted the person apart from us and increased the love, understanding between me and my husband. Alelluiah!

  33. Can’t thank enough to Mother Mary… things are working in favourable manner… hopeful to be married in the coming winter season… so grateful to her and her beloved son… our God JESUS!!! AMEN

  34. My grandchild was born with a medium to large hole in her heart. My God loving sister introduced me to your Novena, which for the week happened to be the Novena prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I faithfully prayed, seeking healing.

I’ve been praying for my son who was not doing to well at school, now he has improved he just told me the teacher made him stand in front and the whole class clapped hands for him. I was also praying for peace, an increment and God’s favor at work, and i was answered, i got an increase. Everyone was moved to another office which is further away and travelling is more expensive but somehow i was told to stay behind (its more easier and less expensive for me to travel) God highly favored me.
