Favorite Novenas to the Saints is an accessible, full-color booklet that offers 12 Novenas to honor Saints throughout the year. Among the Novenas included are those to St. Joseph (Patron of the Universal Church), St. Peregrine (The Cancer Saint), Saint Rita (Saint of the Impossible), and St. Anne (Patroness of Mothers). Pray these Novenas to seek inspiration and intercession from those who enjoy heavenly glory.Praying novenas to the saints is a powerful and meaningful tradition in the Catholic faith. A novena is a prayer said for nine days, asking for a special grace or intercession. This practice is rooted in Scripture, as Jesus' disciples and Mary prayed for nine days after His Ascension, leading to the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.
When we pray a novena to a saint, we are not worshiping them but asking for their prayers, just as we would ask a friend or family member to pray for us. The saints are close to God in Heaven, and their powerful intercession can bring strength, guidance, and even miracles in our lives. Each saint has a special role--St. Joseph for workers and families, St. Anthony for lost things, St. Jude for impossible causes, and many more.

Novenas remind us that we are never alone in our struggles. The saints, as our heavenly friends, are always ready to pray with us and for us, leading us closer to Jesus and strengthening our trust in God's love and mercy. Benefits of a compact book
