St. Andrew Christmas Novena Prayer

Print Friendly

The St. Andrew Christmas Novena, also known as Christmas Anticipation Novena is prayed 15 times a day for 25 days beginning on the Feast of St. Andrew the Apostle (Nov 30th) until the Eve of Christmas (Dec 24th). It is piously believed that whoever recites this novena prayer 15 times a day for 25 days will obtain what is asked. The novena is not addressed to Saint Andrew but to God Himself, asking Him to grant our request in the honor of the birth of His Son at Christmas.

Hail and blessed be the hour and moment in which the Son of God was born of the most pure Virgin, at midnight, in Bethlehem, in piercing cold.
In that hour, vouchsafe, O my God! to hear my prayers and grant my desires, through the merits of Our Savior Jesus Christ, and of His Blessed Mother. Amen.

Imprimatur – Michael Augustine, Archbishop of New York – Feb 6, 1897.

The Angel’s Prayer at Fatima

Print Friendly

During the third apparition of the Angel of Peace to the 3 Shepherd Children (Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta) at Fatima in 1916, the angel appeared holding in his left hand a chalice and over it, in the air, was a host from which drops of blood fell into the chalice. With the Blessed Sacrament suspended in the air, the Angel of Peace prostrated himself and recited this prayer and asked the children to repeat it 3 times.

Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly, and I offer You the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended. And by the infinite merits of His Most Sacred Heart and through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg the conversion of poor spinners. Amen.

Print Friendly

During the first apparition of the Angel of Peace to the 3 Shepherd Children (Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta) at Fatima in the Spring of 1916, the angel knelt, bending his forehead to the ground, and recited this prayer. The children repeated the words. After repeating the prayer 3 times, the angel rose and told the children to pray in this manner and that the hearts of Jesus and Mary are ready to listen to their prayers.

My God, I believe, I adore, I hope, and I love You. I ask forgiveness for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and do not love You.
