Novena to Saint Anthony of Padua ~ Day 1 ~



O wonderful Saint Anthony,
glorious on account of the fame of thy miracles,
and through the condescension of Divine Infant Jesus
in coming in the form of a little child to rest in thy arms,
obtain for me of His bounty the grace
which I ardently desire from the depths of my heart..
(our prayer intention)

Thou who were so compassionate toward miserable sinners,
regard not the unworthiness of those who pray to thee,
but the glory of God that it may once again be magnified
by the granting of the particular request..
(our prayer intention)
which I now ask for with persevering earnestness.Amen

Next, recite in honor of Saint Anthony
Our Father,Hail Mary, Glory Be

Saint Anthony, pray for us!

Next, recite the prayer that relates to the day of Novena.

DAY ONE

O holy Saint Anthony, gentlest of Saints,
thy love for God and charity for His creatures
made thou worthy while on earth to possess miraculous powers.
Miracles waited thy word,
which thou were ever ready to speak for those in trouble or anxiety.
Encouraged by this thought,
I implore thee to obtain for me the favor I seek in this novena..
(our prayer intention)
The answer to my prayer may require a miracle;
even so, thou are the Saint of miracles.
O gentle and loving Saint Anthony,
whose heart was ever full of human sympathy,
whisper my petition into the ears of the Infant Jesus,
who loved to be folded in thy arms,
and thee gratitude of my heart will always be yours.

Our Father,Hail Mary,Glory Be

Saint Anthony, pray for us!
