Novena to Saint Clare
It is said that whoever completes this novena for three previously unfulfilled desires will experience the fulfillment of their please.
◆ 1.) Procedure of the Novena
For nine consecutive days, light a candle and pray one "Hail Mary." Present two requests that seem impossible to you and one request that is particularly close to your heart. On the ninth day, let the candle burn down completely and publish this message. Your requests will be heard.
◆ 2.) The Prayer: Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
◆ 3.) What is a Novena?
A novena plays a significant role in the Catholic faith and is essentially nothing more than a prayer or a prayer ritual. At first glance, it might seem like a Christian chain letter, but that is not the case.
Originally, this prayer tradition goes back to the Pentecost Novena. The Apostles and Mary practiced this after the Ascension of Christ in the Upper Room—it was a nine-day prayer to the Holy Spirit.
◆ 4.) Who is Saint Clare?
She is known as Saint Clare of Assisi and was the daughter of a noble house. Clare lived secluded from the outside world. Even as a young woman, she secretly distributed alms to the poor. Her role model was Francis of Assisi, whose experiences deeply impressed her and shaped her life path. She met with him in secret and decided to dedicate her life exclusively to God. Consequently, Clare fled from home and found asylum in a Benedictine abbey. Shortly thereafter, her sisters followed her there.
◆ 5.) Does this Novena Work?
I must confess, I have never tried this myself. However, I read about this novena again and again. Therefore, if anyone has experience with it, it would be wonderful to hear about it so that this knowledge can be passed on to others.
