Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina - Day Six

Day Six Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina

Obedient St. Pio of Pietrelcina, you have loved the sick more than yourself, because you were able to see Jesus in them. You have performed many miracles by healing patients in the name of Jesus and thereby giving them peace of mind. We beg you to pray for us, so that sick patients, through the intercession of Mary, can be healed and their bodies restored so that they may benefit from the Holy Spirit and, therefore, thank and praise God forever.


“If I knew that a person was afflicted in his mind, body or soul, I would beg God to set him free of his affliction. I would gladly accept the transfer of his affliction to myself, so that he may be saved, and I would ask that he benefit from the fruits of these sufferings... if the Lord would allow me to do it”. Padre Pio


O my Jesus, You have said: "Truly I say to you, heaven and earth will pass away but My words will not pass away." Encouraged by Your infallible words, I now ask for the grace of (name your request)


Say the: Our Father - Hail Mary - Glory be to the Father


Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust You.


Amen.

Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina - Day Five

Day Five Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina

Prudent St. Pio of Pietrelcina, you have had a great devotion for the Souls in Purgatory for whom you have offered yourself as a victim to remit their punishments. Please pray for us and ask God to send us the same compassion and love that you have for these souls. In this way, we will also contribute to reducing their suffering and, with our sacrifices and prayers, win for them their necessary Indulgences.

“My God, I beg you; let me bear the punishments that have been prepared for sinners and the souls in Purgatory. Multiply these punishments for me, so that you may forgive and save the sinners and free their souls from purgatory.” Padre Pio

O my Jesus, You have said: "Truly I say to you, if you ask anything of my Father and through My Name, the Heavenly Father will give it to you." Behold, in Your Name, I ask the Father for the grace of (name your request).

Say the: Our Father - Hail Mary - Glory be to the Father

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust You.

Amen.

Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina - Day Four

Day Four Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina

Chaste St. Pio of Pietrelcina, you loved your Guardian Angel, who served you well as your guide and as a defender and messenger. The Angels brought the prayers of your spiritual children to you. We beg you to pray for us, so that we may learn to call on our Guardian Angel who is always ready to guide us to what is good and to help us to avoid falling into sinful actions.


“Invoke your Guardian Angel, who will enlighten you and guide you. God has given him to you for your protection, therefore, you should use him accordingly.” Padre Pio


O my Jesus, You have said: "Truly I say to you, ask and it will be given you, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you". Behold I knock , I seek and I ask for the grace of (name your request)


Say the: Our Father - Hail Mary - Glory be to the Father


Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust You.


Amen.

Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina - Day Two

Day Two Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina

Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, together with Our Lord Jesus Christ, you were able to withstand the temptations of the Devil. You suffered the beatings and the oppression of Satan, the Enemy, who wanted to have you abandon your journey of holiness. We beg you to pray for us so that, with your help and the help of all of the Heavenly Kingdom, we will be able to find the strength to set sin aside and to persevere in our faith until the day of our death.


“Have courage and do not fear the assaults of the Devil. Remember this forever; it is a healthy sign if the devil shouts and roars around your conscience, since this shows that he is not inside your will.” Padre Pio


O my Jesus, You have said: "Truly I say to you, if you ask anything of my Father and through My Name, the Heavenly Father will give it to you." Behold, in Your Name, I Asked the Father for the grace of (name your request).


Pray: Our Father - Hail Mary - Glory be to the Father


Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust You.

Amen.

Tomorrow, we begin . . .

Tomorrow is the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. We will begin our Novena to St. Pio of Pietrelcina tomorrow, ending these nine days of prayers on his feast day.

I encourage you to consider the life of this saint and ask yourself, this saint, and Our Father one question: what petition should I bring with me to this Novena?

According to Catholic.org, "on September 20, 1918, Padre Pio was kneeling in front of a large crucifix when he received the visible marks of the crucifixion, making him the first stigmatized priest in the history of Church."

It is right and good to begin this Novena on the feast day that lifts high the Cross of Christ. Perhaps you are carrying a cross of your own and Our Lord is asking you to offer it up during these nine days.
