Intention Prayers
PRAYER OF PETITION
Lord God, our country is hurting and our families are in need. The future is uncertain, and yet, we believe You always watch over us and listen to the deepest desires of our hearts. You are the God of truth and love, the creator of all that is. We place our trust in you. Open our hearts and our homes to Your Way.
Mother Mary, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, we look to you to show us how to ponder in our hearts what God desires.
St. Joseph, we turn to you and ask for your intercession to guard and protect each of us, our families and our country.
Lord Jesus, we beg you to send your Spirit so that we may learn to love others the way you loved us on the cross.
Amen.

Madre María, Reina del Santo Rosario, miramos hacia ti para que nos enseñes a reflexionar los deseos del Señor en nuestros corazones.
San José, miramos hacia ti y pedimos tu intercesión para guardar y proteger cada uno de nosotros, nuestras familias y nuestro país.
Señor Jesús, te suplicamos que mandes tu espíritu para que podamos aprender a amar a los demás como tú los amasteis desde la cruz. Amen

Timeline
Additional Information
A 54-Day Novena = Consists of praying a Rosary (five decades / one set of mysteries) each day for twenty-seven days in petition; followed by praying the rosary for twenty-seven days in thanksgiving, thanking God for how He will answer our petitions. We will all pray the same Prayer of Petition / Prayer of Thanksgiving to begin the rosary each day. Typically, a novena is prayed for 9 days. This is an extended novena, equivalent to six ordinary novenas (6 x 9 = 54). It is unique in its admonition to pray in petition for the first half (27 days), and pray in thanksgiving for whatever God gives us in the second half (27 days).
Peace be with you!
This will be the fourth 54-day Rosary Novena organized by Family Renewal Project. An archdiocesan-wide prayer initiative conceived during the Spring of 2020 in response to the lockdowns, confusion & isolation throughout the world … a simple effort to unify and strengthen the Body of Christ through the power of prayer! We believe the Holy Spirit guided us in a particular way to the 54-Day Rosary Novena, which historically has many associated miracles.
We titled our first Novena, The Way of Trust and it kicked off on the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Mother (8/15) and ended on the Feast of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary (10/7). Nearly 2,000 faithful from throughout the Archdiocese of Louisville and including folks from 26 States across the U.S. and 6 Countries around the world signed up to participate and when it ended, there was a desire for more!
We then organized The Way of Trust Christmas Novena {Solemnity of All Souls; 11/2 to Christmas; 12/25} followed by The Way of Trust Pentecost Novena {Wednesday of Holy Week to Pentecost Sunday}. With each Novena, MORE people have signed up to pray. The testimonials, notes, and messages we’ve received have inspiring and have confirmed there is a deep desire for people to unite in prayer.
As a result, Family Renewal Project has committed that we will offer these same 3 Novenas year-round! We’ve modified the title of the original Novena to The Way of Trust Our Lady of the Rosary Novena which reflects Our Lady’s specific request for daily recitation of the Holy Rosary, as well as our trust in her powerful intercession.
We believe individuals and families will find comfort and peace when uniting in prayer for the same intention, trusting that Jesus, through His Mother and His earthly father, Joseph will protect and guide us.
We hope you will unite with us in prayer (and please help spread the word)!
