O Mary,
you always shine on our path
as a sign of salvation and of hope.
We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick,
who at the cross took part in Jesus’ pain, keeping your faith firm.
You, Salvation of the Roman People,
know what we need,
and we are sure you will provide
so that, as in Cana of Galilee,
we may return to joy and to feasting
after this time of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love,
to conform to the will of the Father
and to do as we are told by Jesus,
who has taken upon himself our sufferings
and carried our sorrows
to lead us, through the cross,
to the joy of the resurrection. Amen.
Under your protection, we seek refuge, Holy Mother of God. Do not disdain the entreaties of we who are in trial, but deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.
~Pope Francis
We will start this novena on Friday, March 20th. Please spread the word!
While we face the coronavirus pandemic, let us turn to the face of God in prayer and ask for His healing, His help and His protection.
We will pray for all who are affected, for all who are sick and suffering, for all those who work in the medical profession, and for those who have died as well as for their grieving family members.
During this novena we will be asking the intercession of these saints:
The Fourteen Holy Helpers, those who lived during the time of the plague.
St. Anthony the Great, patron of those affected by infectious diseases.
St. Edmund, patron for victims of pandemics.
St. Damien of Molokai, who put himself at risk to minister to lepers.
St. Rocco, who is venerated for his prayers for those suffering from infectious diseases.
St. Joseph, patron of the dying.
St. Jude and St. Rita, patrons of impossible causes.
St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, who founded hospitals dedicated to caring for the sick.
Mary, Undoer of Knots.
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Father in Heaven, have mercy on us and on the whole world. We come to you today with our fears and concerns — You know what’s in our hearts. We love You, trust You, we need You. We ask You to be with us. Stay with us. Help us through these times of uncertainty and sorrow.
We know you are the Divine Physician, the healer of all. And so we ask that you bring your loving and healing presence to all those who are sick and suffering right now. Please comfort them.
Please be with the grieving families of those who have passed away.
Please have mercy on those who have died, may they be with You in heaven.
Please stand at the side of all medical professionals who are putting themselves at risk while they work to bring healing to others.
