VeraMaria Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 .......like a novena!! B) This is my idea.....tommorrow we start a novena to st. therese so it ends on her feast day, and we say it for priests, her special patronage, and our special intentions. The more people the better , imagine, we'll be saying the same novena (I'll post it here!), what a feeling of unity in the pham! Come on, say it with me, Therese will send us a shower of roses, for Jesus loves his sweet little bride!! It's a short prayer a day, and you'll be surprised by the results! If you're interested, please respond, I'll post it here... . SAINT THERESE IS SO COOL, ARE U WITH ME???? B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeraMaria Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 O Little Therese of the Child Jesus, please pick for me a rose from the heavenly gardens and send it to me as a message of love. O Little Flower of Jesus, ask God today to grant the favors I thee implore, and tell him I'll love him each day more and more. St. Therese, help me to always believe, as you did, in God's great love for me so that I might imitate your "Little Way" each day. Amen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThereseFlower Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 St. Therese is a big "homegirl" of mine... (no rudeness intended) I'd love to pray a novena, but I have no idea how... can someone help me? Muchas gracias. ^_^ ~TF~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeraMaria Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 St. Therese is a big "homegirl" of mine... (no rudeness intended) I'd love to pray a novena, but I have no idea how... can someone help me? Muchas gracias. ^_^ ~TF~ You say htis prayer every day, that's basically what it is. If you are like me and want to do something else, you can pray a rosary a day during the nine days of the novena. What I do is I pick something that this saint did that I admire, one thing every day, and i try to imitate it. For example, I admire Therese's charity for her sisters. She'd do all kinds of stuff for them and they'd never know.....I think that type of "hidden" charity is the hardest of all.....and for example, me, i'll imitate it by emptying the dishwasher....takes a lot of time, it's a very annoying job....and my Mom will come home and think my brother did it, and I'll never say it was me.....you know, that's the type of hidden charity Therese practiced, and that's the hardest thing, believe me.

littleflower+JMJ Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 actually each day you say what the novena has for that particular day and after reading that you say the novena prayer everytime after that. then you are able to pray the rosary, meditate, etc. you can find it here to say each day novena prayer... http://ewtn.com/therese/novena.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleflower+JMJ Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 First Day St. Thérèse, privileged Little Flower of Jesus and Mary, I approach you with childlike confidence and deep humility. I lay before you my desires, and beg that through your intercession they may be realized. Did you not promise to spend your heaven doing good upon earth? Grant me according to this promise the favors I am asking from you. Intercede for us all the days of our life, but specially during this Novena and obtain for us from God the graces and favors we ask through your intercession. Amen. Thought for the day: Confidence in God. We can never have too much confidence in the good God who is so powerful and so merciful. We obtain from Him as much as we hope for. If you are nothing, do you forget that Jesus is everything? You have only to lose your nothingness in His Infinity and think only of loving Him. Concluding Prayer O Little Therese of the Child Jesus, please pick for me a rose from the heavenly gardens and send it to me as a message of love. O Little Flower of Jesus, ask God today to grant the favors I thee implore, and tell him I'll love him each day more and more. St. Therese, help me to always believe, as you did, in God's great love for me so that I might imitate your "Little Way" each day. Amen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
