Thank you so much for joining us in praying the St. Monica Novena!
If you’ve had any of your prayers answered throughout this novena, you can share those with us all below.
We’re praying for you every day!
I just want to take a second to say thank you to St. Monica for her powerful intercession and prayers. I prayed the novena for my Mom’s return to the Catholic Church and during the novena, I noticed my mom’s and my interactions were more meaningful and she also signed up to become a member of a local parish. I noticed the forms to join the parish she chose laying on the desk in our kitchen during the novena for her, my dad and my little sisters to join.
I also prayed the novena for the grace of moderation. I noticed my mom coming in and out of the house when I chose to have a meal, and she also offered food at times or asked me questions about my habits. I also am participating in the praymore healing retreat and after hearing the talk about suffering by the holy lady who could only have a few foods, I was able, by the grace of God, to stay in bed in spite of the habit of getting out of bed when hungry in the night. I thought, “This is painful; I will offer this up for a loved one though.” I was able to go through the night that night and was hungry enough to have balanced meals the next day. These are graces I’ve been praying for for a long time. Thank you very much, St. Monica. I appreciate you. Thank you, my Jesus. Thank you, our Mother Mary too.
Glory to God, I am blessed and thankful to have been able to share with everyone the praying on this beautiful novena to Saint Monica. May God bless all of you and your families abundantly In Jesus name. In the name of the Fathet, Son and Holy Spirit, amen
Thank you Jesus, Mother Mary, St. Joseph, St. Jude and St. Monica

Dear St. Monica, thank you for interceding with my prayer intentions and heart’s desires.
Thank You Jesus for answering my prayers!
Specifically an ice break sale!! Thank YOU, thank YOU!!! All glory and honor is YOURS alone!
I have been praying novenas now for some time and during that time my prayers have been answered. My son who is still going through a very strained marriage asked to pray with me since June 2021 every morning and we have continued to pray every day and there has been a change is his attitude. We ask you to continue praying with us and, for us, so that God can do a miracle for him and his wife and God’s glory be seen by all through them.
Through the intercession of St. Monica and many prayers during this novena, my daughter who has been struggling to conceive finally got the news: She is carrying twins! Thank you, St. Monica, for prayers answered.
I was praying for clear direction in my family’s life. We potentially had a big change that could have happened. By day 6 of the novena, I got a clear answer by way of a door closing which was just confirmation with how I had been leaning with regards to our future choices. It was so nice to have that confirmation. Thanks St. Monica for your prayers AND all of you who have been praying!! Thank you Jesus!
How good is our God! I’ve been praying for my family. God has blessed one of my sons and his wife with a wonderful, happy holiday, which they badly needed and very much deserve! They are so enjoying it and are soo happy! Now I’m praying that they will realize WHO has given them this great blessing. I’m praying for all of you to see a great blessing as a result of your own prayers!
Thank you for this Novena, Annie!
In the middle of praying the novena to Saint Monica asking her to intercede for my children and my grandchild to have a deeper faith we had unplanned overnight with my grandchild which allowed us to take him to mass on Sunday. I consider that a prayer answered. God bless you.
One of my daughters has recently begun to attend Mass regularly again, along with my little granddaughter. Thank you, St Monica for bringing my intentions before the Lord with the same fervor that you prayed for your own son. Thank you, my dear Lord, for the mercy you show my family time and again. Amen.
I would like to give thanks that during the praying of this novena, Iwas able to listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit to visit my sister who had not been answering my phone calls or messages. Ifound her ill, very weak and in pain. I got her medication and cooked for her and made her eat. She felt and looked much better and is going to the doctor today. God talks to us all the time and we should not ignore his voice. Thank you Jesus, Mary and St. Monica for your intercession.
I prayed for the fruit of the womb ,I just got a positive pregnancy test in the hospital. God is faithful, may St Monica continue to intercede for my safe delivery and health of me and baby and also those seeking the fruit of the womb.Amen
Good morning my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.
I want to start by thanking God for the gift of life and the gift of good health of mind and body.
One of my prayer requests was for God to help me prepare for and pass my pre-registration Assessment first time. God answered my prayer requests and granted me a resounding success in my GPHC pre-registration assessments.
I also want to thank God for restoring my relationship with my spouse, for restoring peace in my home and for journey mercies.
I have been believing God for a miracle considering how hard the exam was. God granted my heart desires and I have come to testify and return all the GLORY TO GOD.
THANK YOU JESUS FOR EVERYTHING 🙌.
I look forward to receiving my answers for my other prayer requests and private good intentions.
FOR WITH GOD NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE (LUKE 1 VERSE 37)🙏🙏🙏.

OWAH INNOCENTMARY CHIDI. I thank God for answering my prayers someone who owed me have paid me, I never believed the money will ever come to me. The main reason for this novena prayers have started manifesting glory be to God in the highest. Amen
I said this novena to St. Monica for my son who had gone down the wrong path and he could no longer see the light in anything. During the novena my son managed to find work that he loves and has joined the gym. He said his world is not grey anymore. I saw him smile for the first time in months. Thank you St. Monica.
We thank St. Monica for bringing our prayers for our daughter Alexandra Faith to our Heavenly Father. She has been in the hospital for over eight months being healed from aml leukemia and a bone marrow transplant when last week we returned to the hospital with high fevers. On day six of our novena we learned her lung scans looked great from the lung inflammation she had prior and on day seven they gave her medications to stop what was causing the fevers. Today is the first day she is fever free. We continue to pray for her bone marrow biopsy she has this coming Tuesday to continue to show she is leukemia free. Thank you Heavenly Father for our answered prayers 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻
I pray for the transformation of the hearts my 3 children and 3 grandchildren daily. My grand sons are 13 and 17. There have already been miracles that have occurred, but last Sunday I invited the 17 year old to go to Mass with me ( after he had talked to my parish priest about the RCIA program,) and not only did he say yes, but my grandson visiting from Europe whose father ( my son) is a proclaimed atheist, also wanted to join us. All things are possible with God, and I fully expect that over time, my grandsons will not only accept the faith themselves, but bring their parents back as well. In God’s time, not mine ❤️ Amen
I have been praying for my son, goddaughter and grandchildren for grace of conversion. My son is visiting. We have had some good conversations about God. I read him a quote from St. Maximillian Kolbe about never allowing the gravity or frequency of our sins prevent us from going to Mary with them. I invited him to confession and Mass. So far, he has declined but I hope he will stop resisting and that he will let go and allow the Lord to heal him. Thankyou St. Monica. Please oray for us!
Answered prayers for my children came this week, good news on Monday, Wednesday and Friday! My cup runneth over. We serve a merciful Lord.
I moved to new country, now I got my license, a car and a job all within a week. To God be the glory.
We got word that our friend that has been fighting cancer, for along time, got a good report today. He is in remission. We thank the Lord, the blessed Mother, and all the saints that we have asked for their intersession for him.

my boyfriend who was planning to attend seminary to become a lutheran missouri synod pastor has opened his mind to the idea of converting to Catholicism. he started praying for me to convert to his denomination while i was praying for him to convert to Catholicism. When i started this novena, he began to feel convicted. By day 9, he was weeping because he had realized many areas where he was wrong and Catholicism was right. he has also been talking to a devout Catholic named Monica while i have been praying this novena. Praise God! He is enrolled in RCIA. Please pray for him!
Thanking the Lord for answered prayer that my granddaughter and her spouse have chosen to reconcile their marriage. They have a tough road ahead but there’s a grace and forgiveness of our Lord they can put things back together.
Yes, we have been praying for a drug addicted, pregnant mother for some months since finding that she was pregnant. The baby was born about 3 weeks ago. We were praying that the mother would allow a sister to have temporary custody, while she cleans up her act. She has agreed, which will keep the little feller out of the system. He is and will be a special little guy! Thank you Jesus, and St
Monica for your prayers.
God helped me to find a place to stay after I sold my house.
Also God helps me and my family every day, we are grateful and blessed 😇!!
I was blessed with my kidney results and blood test coming back ok. Thank you God!
I am a freelance creative director and designer. My jobs may last 1 week to 6 months. As a contract is ending I tend to get anxious as if another project may not come along and with it a slightly more stressful everyday existence. I pray to only be brave and have the courage and patience to accept what God has presented me each day. It brings me peace knowing that so much is out of my control after doing my part to secure work.
I have not been forgotten. I have been blessed over and over again with only short periods of time without work. I embrace these times too. And, yesterday I secured a 6 month project – yay! – as well as an agreement from the employer to a rate increase.
Now I pray for God’s guidance to be a good decision maker, for help in making the best use of my time, and for my work to be as good as I can make it. I am so grateful. I enjoy my work — it doesn’t feel like work. These blessings are never taken for granted and I strive to be a person worthy of the abundance God has provided.
My friend has been away from the church for about 40 years. It got worse and She completely turn away from God and wanted nothing to do with Him after her 2 children died tragically about 10 years apart. Well yesterday she asked me if I had any books she could read about coming back into the church!! I gave her some books and then I invited her come to Mass with me this weekend and she said yes!! That k you Saint Monica!! Thanks Be to God!!
I am still praying for my intentions. I know the Lord and Our Blessed

Because of financial difficulties and only on a limited budget I was worried about the new rental lease agreement coming up. I decided I would file for rental assistance with my state. After 30 days I was approved for 100 % coverage for 3 months, September, October and November with recertification for the entire year of 2023. I’m still in shock knowing my prayers were answered. Praise Our Lord Jesus and all the angels and saints.

I asked St. Monica To Intercede along with me the for spiritual and physical healing for my sister who is very ill with Cancer. Today she called me to say she is Letting Go Of Everything To God.

We still have a long way to go and we will be praying for that healthy baby but we believe that St Monica is with us this time and we will be praying for her intercession. The kids may even find renewed faith in this experience. Thanks for all your prayers and support.
Sadly My daughter saw someone kill themselves on the train track this week when on her way to Reading for a festival – God rest his soul! (When he was leaning over the edge she immediately prayed for him) But it has made her return to faith & she came to mass with me today praise God & the homily was just so relevant to her thoughts which were getting her down & the Lord replaced these thoughts with positive ones about blessed Dominic’s death etc & was on the train to Reading! My thanks to St Monica for her intercession as my daughter is now full of zeal! & conversions in my family was my intention in this novena 🌹🙏😇🕊
Will continue to pray these Novenas. Thank you John-Paul and Annie for bringing these Novenas to us.
I began praying the St. Anthony novena during the time my daughter was missing and the police were doing everything to find her. I prayed every day to God and attended mass, along with doing everything that I could to get her photo out and to enlist the help of family and friends. On the 8th day of the novena she was found, and she is doing well and recovering. Thank you

I really appreciate God for blessings and deliverance…2 months ago my business completely stopped working,no sales and I was spending money no income. I was filled with anxiety and depression. Because my business is all I have in life right now. No husband no children. I felt my life was coming to an end. And it felt like God is ignoring me. All the novenas I prayed, felt none were answered. But I couldn’t stop praying because that’s the only comfort I have.

Hello… I wanted to share this little miracle, though small it, I think it has a significant value just the same… My wife lost one of her earrings just the other day when she was cutting the grass and it was from her grandmother who has past on and she was very upset and I told her to pray to St Anthony for him to find her lost article and to bring the earring to an area that we would be able to see… We live on a lot of 100×100 so it’s fairly large, so not more than 24 hours my mother in-law had a inclination to look out her window at this particular time of the day when she normally doesn’t and low and behold the sun had shined in the exact location to place a glimmer onto an object on the sidewalk just shy of the front lawn and told her daughter go look there is something shining on the ground and to both their surprise it was her lost earring… They couldn’t believe that it was found a true miracle!.. Was it St. Anthony I believe it was!.. Being that we are praying this novena to St Monica I also believe that she nudged St Anthony a little and told him go help your sister and your brother!.. Thank You For All Your Novenas That You Send Out To Us All, It Really Shows your Love To Others As God Has Shown Us To Do!.. Take Care My Brothers And Sisters, Thank You, God Bless.
My prayer for healing & good results from my blood work have been answered.

My daughter has been angry at the church for awhile. I have been praying for she and her family to come back to Our Holy Mother Church.

My autistic grandson has made great gains in his school, being raised to higher levels of learning. Such a blessing for our whole family.
I have been praying for my spouse to come to appreciate Catholic faith and our joining the Church together eventually – against all odds, because he’s been very hostile towards Catholicism. The other day he exclaimed (in no ironic way) during our conversation concerning trials of life, religious matters etc.: “Perhaps I am to become a Catholic and a saint!” I know my prayers have been heard, and that Saint Monica is praying for me and for us 🙏 The Holy Spirit carries on with His work..!
