Does anyone have a lovely Marian Novena in honour of Our Lady's birthday?
Thank you

Zelie, while looking for this link for you,
the Raccolta
(the second novena listed is in honor of Our Lady's birthday) I stumbled across this amazing prayerbook. It seems to have a prayer for everyone! I think you'll be as excited as I am to look through this collection of prayers.

(I believe the Raccolta has been updated and is now Enchirdion of Indulgences. Correct me if I'm wrong.)

Thank you for the reminder to start a Novena today! Robin, I am so glad you posted that because I can't find any novena prayers for the Nativity of Mary in any of my books.

Thank you Helen..amazing is the right word!!
What a beautiful treasure to find. What a wonderful selection of prayers...so many. I will print this out as soon as I can, and use some straight away, especially the ones for the Priesthood.

Thank you too Robin, this is a great website! I will start a novena but I've missed the proper time, I was thinking that the Novena to Maria Bambina could be used similarly to the Nine Hour Novena to The Infant of Prague, said every hour for nine hours on Our Lady's birthday . What do you ladies think?

I think since Novena means nine it doesn't matter how you incorporate the number into it! Nine days or nine hours - I think either one is lovely!
