Pentecost Novena

Come, Holy Spirit!

Join Us In Prayer
May 19-27, 2023

“The Pentecost Novena is the first of all novenas, nine days of prayer. After Jesus’ Ascension into heaven, He commanded His disciples to come together in the upper room to devote themselves to constant prayer (Acts 1:14). They prayed for nine days before receiving the Holy Spirit on Pentecost.”

On May 4, 1897, Pope Leo XIII proclaimed: “We decree and command that throughout the whole Catholic Church, this year and in every subsequent year, a novena shall take place before Whit-Sunday (Pentecost), in all parish churches.”  (Encyclical On the Holy Spirit, 13)

Let’s join the world in praying a novena in preparation of Pentecost – beginning on Friday, the day after Ascension Thursday.  Here are links to a few of the Pentecost Novena formats available on the web:
