NOVENA of BLESSED MARGARET CASTELLO ~~~ DAY ONE

I’d like to say this Novena, for the special intentions of the success of the Book Club, and the conversion of Barack Obama’s soul. The way I see it, we need to unite and fight with the most powerful weapons we have. Nothing brings a foe down like making him a friend. If we begin today, we should be able to start the Book Club on November 18th, which is the feast day of Saints Peter and Paul. Perfect.

“The greatest tragedy of life is not unanswered prayer, but unoffered prayer.”
F.B. Meyer

Eventually, we will be able to have a prayer corner, and we can all put up our personal intentions.  So buy those books, read chapter one, join in this novena and let’s do it!

First Day:
O Blessed Margaret of Castello,
In embracing your life just as it was,
You gave us an example of resignation
To the Will of god.

 
In so accepting God’s Will,
You knew that you would grow in virtue,
Glorify God, save your own soul,
And help the souls of your neighbors.

 
Obtain for me the grace,
To recognize the will of God,
In all that may happen to me in my life,
And so resign myself to it.
Obtain for me also the special favor,
Which I now ask,
Through your intercession with God.

Let us pray…

O God by whose Will
The blessed virgin, Margaret,
Was blind from birth,
That the eyes of her mind
Being inwardly enlightened
She might think without ceasing
On You alone;
Be the light of our eyes,
That we may be able
To flee the shadows in this world,
And reach the home
Of never-ending light.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

 
Jesus, Mary, Joseph,
Glorify your servant blessed Margaret,
By granting the favor
We so ardently desire.
This we ask in humble submission
To God’s Will,
For His Honor and Glory
And the salvation of souls.

Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory Be…

WE ARE ONE BODY, ONE BODY IN CHRIST

AND WE DO NOT STAND ALONE…
