FEAST OF SAINT JOAN OF ARC – 30th MAY
May 30, 2024
AN EFFICACIOUS NOVENA TO THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS:
Attributed to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
Saint Padre Pio recited this novena every day for all those who requested his prayers.
The Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart is June 7, 2024
This novena can be prayed any time of year or, as did Padre Pio, perpetually throughout the year. However, it is traditionally prayed for nine days prior to the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart.
(Pray all prayers below every day during the novena.)

CONCLUDING PRAYER:
O Sacred Heart of Jesus,
for whom it is impossible not to have compassion on the afflicted,
have pity on us miserable sinners
and grant us the grace which we ask of you,
through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary,
your tender Mother and ours.
THE HAIL HOLY QUEEN (THE SALVE REGINA)
Hail, holy Queen, mother of mercy,
Hail, our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve;
to you do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us;
and after this, our exile,
show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.
O Clement, O Loving, O Sweet Virgin Mary.
Pray for us O most holy Mother of God,
That we may be worthy of the promises of Christ.
St. Joseph, foster father of Jesus, pray for us.
Amen.
