ovena to Saint
Anthony
St. Anthony of
Padua is also known as St. Anthony the Wonder-Worker, and so it is no surprise
that Catholics often turn to him with their requests. In this novena, or
nine-day prayer, we not only ask for St. Anthony’s intercession but promise to
live more Christian lives.

St.
Anthony, you are glorious for your miracles and for the condescension of Jesus
Who came as a little child to lie in your arms. Obtain for me from His bounty
the grace which I ardently desire. You were so compassionate toward sinners, do
not regard my unworthiness. Let the glory of God be magnified by you in
connection with the particular request that I earnestly present to you.
(State your request here)
As a pledge of my gratitude, I promise to live
more faithfully in accordance with the teachings of the Church, and to be
devoted to the service of the poor whom you loved and still love so greatly.
Bless this resolution of mine that I may be faithful to it until death.
St. Anthony, consoler of all the afflicted,
pray for me.
St. Anthony, helper of
all who invoke you,
pray for me.
St. Anthony, whom the
Infant Jesus loved and honored so much,
pray for me. Amen.
