2009 Novena Brochure, Prayer Card and Gift Form - Every day we receive notes from you, our friends and family, asking for special prayers for
yourselves and others you care for deeply. We are honoured to share your life experiences and respect
your personal intentions.
Prayer is our very human way of being in conversation with God and especially by being in
touch with our innermost feelings. We surrender ourselves to God – and in doing so, we surrender
ourselves to one another.
In this spirit we invite you to be an active participant in our annual Novena of Prayer which
begins on May 13 and concludes on May 21, the feast day of St. Eugene de Mazenod, founder of
the Oblates, who died on this day in 1861. During this occasion, hundreds of people, both Mission
Associates and Oblates, are praying together as one family. Each day a special Mass is offered by
our missionaries for you and your loved ones. We encourage you to send your personal intentions
attached to the enclosed prayer card and ask you to also pray for the women and men engaged in
carrying out the works of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate around the world.
We wish God’s Blessings upon you and your loved ones this Easter Season! [ View Newsletter ]
