NOVENA TO SAINTS
PETER AND PAUL
(June 20 – June 28)
Novena
Prayer
O blessed apostles Peter and Paul! I
take you this day for my special protectors and advocates with God. In all
humility I rejoice with thee, blessed Peter, prince of the apostles, because
thou art the rock whereon God hath built his Church; and I rejoice with thee,
too, blessed Paul, because thou wast chosen of God for a vessel of election,
and preacher of the truth throughout the world. Ask for me, I pray you both,
lively faith, firm hope, and perfect charity; entire detachment from myself,
contempt of the world, patience in adversity, humility in prosperity, attention
in prayer, purity of heart, right intention in my works, diligence in the
fulfilment of all the duties of my state of life, constancy in my good resolutions,
resignation to the holy will of God, perseverance in his grace even unto death, that,
by your joint intercession and your glorious merits, I may overcome the
temptations of the world, the flesh, and the devil, and be made worthy to stand
before the face of the chief and eternal pastor of souls, Jesus Christ, to
enjoy him and to love him for all eternity, who, with the Father and the Holy
Ghost, liveth and reigneth world without end. Amen.
Pater
noster
Pater noster, qui es in caelis,
sanctificetur Nomen Tuum. Adveniat regnum Tuum, fiat voluntas Tua, sicut in
caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis
debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris, et ne nos inducas
in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Will be done, on earth as in heaven and
on the earth. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one. Amen.
Ave Maria
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus
tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis
nostrae. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is
with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy
womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour
of our death. Amen.
Gloria Patri
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui
Sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum.
Amen.
Glory be
Glory be to the Father, and to the
Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall
be, world without end. Amen.
From the Raccolta
The Sovereign Pontiff, Pius VI., by a
rescript from the Office of the Secretary of Memorials, July 28, 1778, granted
to all the faithful who, with at least contrite heart and devotion, shall say
this prayer, together with the Our Father, the Hail Mary, and the Glory be to
the Father: An indulgence of one hundred days, once a day. A plenary
indulgence, on any of the feasts of St. Peter and St. Paul, or on any of the
nine days preceding, or within their octaves, to those who, being truly penitent,
after confession and communion, shall visit with devotion a church or an altar
dedicated to these holy apostles, and say there, as directed above, this
prayer, praying for holy Church and for the Sovereign Pontiff. These
indulgences, plenary and partial, were confirmed forever by his Holiness, Pope
Pius IX., by a rescript, June 18, 1876.
