Day 6 - Religious Freedom Novena:


Novena for Religious Freedom
Peace be with you!
 
Today, I'd like to pray for the Church's freedom in the face of the rise of secularism. As society becomes more and more secular, it becomes more and more hostile to the Church. 
 
So, let's pray for all societies that there will be a renewal of faith and a reduction in secularism. Let us pray that we, the faithful, will live the gospel so fully that the secular culture is in awe of our love. 
 
Here are the novena prayers for today:
 
Day 6 - Religious Freedom Novena Prayers 
 
Oh great cloud of witnesses! Oh host of Angels and Saints worshiping God for all eternity! Oh holy ones in heaven above, Pray for us!
 
You who were once part of the Church on earth, you who were faithful servants of the Church Militant, you who suffered for the love of God, Pray for us!
 
In all ages, the Church is persecuted and hated. We pray, oh Lord, through your holy Saints, that we may be blessed with the freedom to worship and adore you at all times! We pray that you may bless your Church throughout the world and me personally with your grace to persevere with love in the face of persecution just as You did on the Cross.
 
(Mention your personal intentions here)

Try to think of ways that you can increase your holiness so that you can be a light of hope in this increasingly secular world.
 
As St. Therese says, do small things with great love!
 
I'm praying for you!
 
God bless you!
