| Please submit sites that have the actual texts of novena prayers, or the history behind a particular novena. |
"Novena" comes from "novem", the Latin word for "nine". A novena is a prayer, set of prayers, or a devotional practice carried out over the course of nine days. Usually, but not always, a novena takes place in nine consecutive days.
Novenas in honor of events in Mary's life, or that ask Mary to intercede on our behalf.
Novenas that are prayed at a particular time in the liturgical year.
