The Christmas Novena: We’re Praying for You!

New here? Join us in prayer! Click here to get novena reminders by email!

We’ll begin our next novena in just a few days now — which is, of course, The Christmas Novena!

You can share your prayer intentions with us all below in the comments – we’re praying for you!

This was the very first novena we ever prayed through Pray More Novenas — and that was eleven years ago!

At the time, we didn’t have very many people praying with us at all… And now, there are thousands of people praying with us from all around the world!

We thank God for you and for this community, and we pray for you every day. You are never forgotten.

Thank you for praying with us.

We have prayed for the same general intention each year that we pray this novena, and that’s for an end to abortion.

There is no better time than to reflect on the most vulnerable of this world than during Advent and Christmas when we prepare for the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, who comes to us as a small baby. 

We’ll start praying the Christmas Novena on Thursday, December 16th.

You can sign up to join us in prayer here:

We’re looking forward to praying with you!

God bless you!
