Pope Francis has said, “In these days of trial, as humanity trembles at the threat of the pandemic, I would propose that all Christians join their voices together to heaven.” Together as a Parish community we encourage everyone to take the next nine days to pray the Novena with the intention of an end to Coronavirus. May we remain united in prayer, compassionate to those in need and ask for the Holy Spirit to come down upon us and end this pandemic.
Nine Day Novena:
O Mary, full of grace, Patroness of this nation and Mother of the Church, in this time of illness and worldwide need we seek your intercession for the human family before your Son’s throne of grace and mercy. We ask for strength in adversity, health in weakness, and comfort in sorrow. Help us, O Blessed Mother, to be filled with confidence and trust in the tender compassion of our God. Let us not be afraid, like our own Saint Marianne Cope, who entrusted her life and ministry among the outcasts of society into the care of our Divine Physician. Continue to watch over all who are sick as well as those who care for them and give wisdom to all who are seeking a cure. We ask this through Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
