Novenas Collection
Nine days of private or public devotion in the Catholic Church to obtain special graces.
The Catholic Encyclopedia defines a Novena as "nine days' of private or public devotion in the Catholic Church to obtain special graces."
The heart of any Novena is the same as the first one, called by our Lord Himself. "He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father." (Acts 1:4, emphasis mine)
When we pray a Novena, we either pray the same prayer for all nine days or follow a list of prayers to be prayed for each day. Every novena is a bit different in the intention, formation of prayers and practice.
We invite you to join us at Catholic Online School in these times of focused prayer called Novenas.
