Tuesday, August 6, 2019
Time for our next novena everybody.
This novena is for the feast of the Queenship of Mary, which we celebrate on August 22.

There’s a second reason that we are using this novena. This ministry of Prayers for Priests was started in Elmira, NY. Elmira has long been known as the Queen City, since as far back as when Samuel Clemens was spending their summers here.

Novena to St. Thomas the Apostle
Tuesday, June 26, 2019
Our novena prayer beginning tomorrow is to St. Thomas the Apostle, adapted from a traditional prayer. His feast day is July 3.
St. Thomas, when you saw the Risen Lord, you humbly confessed “My Lord and My God” and later sacrificed your life on mission in India for love of him. We ask you to pray for our priests and ourselves that we may be strengthened to dedicate ourselves totally to God’s Kingdom. We pray that through your intercession we may be protected in all trials and temptations to doubt our Lord’s love and plan for us, through Christ our Lord, Amen. +Glory Be, 3x

Our First Novena
Monday, April 29, 2019
We will begin our first Novena on Wednesday, May 1st. We’ve decided to do a novena to Saint Bernadette, since the morning after we decided to start this prayer community, Elena took this attached picture before Mass at Our Lady of Lourdes. Notice where the stained-glass window light falls.
Here is a link to a great novena to St. Bernadette:
