Description
There are prayers we return to because the heart has learned where to find them. Through generations of Catholic life, the novena has offered the faithful a beautiful way to persevere in prayer, carrying a petition, thanksgiving, or hope before God through consecutive days of devotion. The Paperback Treasured Novenas Book gathers eighteen of the Church’s most beloved novenas into one enduring collection, providing a faithful companion for those seeking to deepen their Catholic prayer life.
Within its 240 pages, Treasured Novenas leads readers through devotions suited to many seasons and intentions of the Christian life. The collection reaches from the joyful anticipation of the Novena for Christmas to the beloved Novena to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, with many treasured Catholic novenas in between. Each offers an opportunity to step away from the noise of the day, return to prayer, and place one’s needs and intentions before God with patience and trust.
Compact enough to keep close at hand, this paperback Catholic prayer book measures 3-3/4″ wide by 5-3/4″ high, making it well suited for a bedside table, prayer corner, purse or travel bag, or a quiet visit to church or Eucharistic Adoration. It is a thoughtful addition to a Catholic home library and a meaningful Catholic gift for family members, friends, parishioners, converts, and anyone wishing to cultivate a more consistent devotional life.
The prayers of the Church have a way of traveling with us through the changing seasons of life. Some are prayed in expectation, others in gratitude, and still others when the road ahead is difficult to see. Treasured Novenas brings eighteen of these cherished devotions together in a book made to be opened often, prayed slowly, and kept nearby as the faithful continue the ancient Catholic practice of persevering in prayer.
