The Next Novena: for Marriages & Families! 2021

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

We wanted to let you know about the next novena — it’s one of our favorites (you can scroll down to read why), and we’ll start praying it just a few days after we finish the current Novena to St. Monica.

The next novena is The Novena for Marriage and Family!

St. John Paul II said, “As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live,” so it’s really important that we pray for marriages and families to be strengthened and sanctified.

We will pray for those who are already married, for those who want to be married, for families going through difficult times, and for those in financial distress.

There’s something extra special about this novena… It leads up to the Feast of Mary’s Birthday (the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary)!

The first time we prayed this novena together as a community was nine years ago, leading up to our wedding day! It has been such a gift to pray with you :)

And it is so important that we have strong marriages and strong families. So, we are really looking forward to praying this novena once again, for all Marriages and for Families!

This novena begins on August 30th!

You can sign up for the novena HERE. And you can share your prayer intentions with us all below.

Thank you for praying with us! We’re praying for you.

God bless you!
