  1. I would like to thank God, John Paul & Annie for the prayers. I feel much better from the general body pains. I look forward to the next Novena

  2. I prayed this Novena asking Our Lady to help my grandson David make his confirmation. Due to covid lockdowns a few years ago, he slipped through the cracks for some reason and never was confirmed. Since that time numerous roadblocks have kept him from being confirmed. He finally made his Confirmation on February 10th – the day of the final prayer!!!!! ~grateful Gram!

  3. In this previous Novena, I’ve had tremendous blessings: acquired new contracts after prayer and current contracts have progressed well. I’ve been able to pay my workers on time even though life has been difficult. My family has also been blessed plus my mother in law who has been ailing has been healed from food poisoning after Novena prayers.

  4. Since December 14th. I have personally had 3 miracles occur for me. I had a massive heart attack on the 14th, during which my 18 year old grandson saved my life by doing CPR. I was pronounced dead twice. I survived. This past Sunday night , my airways became blocked and I could ,not breathe, I turned purple again and passed out. Luckey for me my wife and neighbour were able to revive me before the ambulance arrived, I spent the next 2 days in ICU. I was then treated to a procedure that opened up my air ways and now am feeling fine. I feel that I have been rejected at the Pearly Gates each time because God has some purpose for me in mind to yet complete. Thank you all for the prayers, and I thank God. I have been praying these novina`s for years, but this is my first personal encounter. Peter

  27. I know you asked for answered prayers but how about those people who prayed novenas and never heard an answer to any even after more than 40 years of prayers, novenas and rosaries.
    It is such a letdown to never have a prayer answered. Yet I keep trying, why, I don’t know. I must be a fool to continue to try but I do and I guess I will continue. It is very sad and disappointing but maybe someday if not in this life but the next I will at least find out why I never received an answer even if God doesn’t want to keep me after he is done talking to me.

    biospys, my prayers for everything to be benign was answered, as we got the results last week saying everything was benign, however they did say they were sending it off for further testing. I’m asking for complete healing, and that God continue healing my mom and for all the “further testing”, to come back as nothing but healthy cells were seen throughout her pancreas.

  39. (I was also praying another OLL novena at the same time, but I guess it doesn’t matter)… I was well enough to get up early and sing with my choir on our parish patronal feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes. My other intentions have not yet been answered, but there is hope for them.

Now I hear she has stage 4 cancer this past year and have prayed she somehow overcomes it all. She was a very respectable nurse whom help raise my children by an ex wife. She was more of a mother according to them which I saw daily. They were basically grown and out of house in 2016 we split, got back to together a few month later for couple yrs and all went south and should could not explain anything. Although we do not speak I have prayed for her for years, she is not able to work per my youngest daughter.

I only pray she works thru her illness and continues her life with good health regardless of our current situation. AMEN !!!
