What Is a Novena?
A novena is a traditional Catholic devotion consisting of prayers offered over nine consecutive days for a specific intention. Rooted in Sacred Tradition, novenas invite us to persevere in prayer and place our trust fully in God.
About the Novena for Life
The Novena for Life is a prayer devotion focused on upholding the dignity and sanctity of every human life—especially the unborn, the vulnerable, the elderly, and those facing difficult circumstances.
This novena follows the intentions of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ “9 Days for Life” initiative and is prayed annually by Catholics across the nation.
