Start Novena

 Nine-month Novena starting January 30, 2023, Pilgrimage to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, Washington, DC.  September 30, 2023, Vigil of Rosary Sunday. 

God our Father, we thank you for the gift of your Son,
Our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we are
adopted as your beloved sons and daughters.

At Pentecost you poured out the Holy Spirit
upon Our Lady and the Apostles
while they were at prayer.

Pour out that same Holy Spirit upon us 
as we meditate upon the mysteries of Christ
contained in the Most Holy Rosary.

wnlighten our faith, strengthen our hope, and
set us ablaze with love for you and our neighbor.

Graciously grant us St. Dominic's own zeal
for the salvation of souls.

Bless the Dominican Rosary Pilgrimage.

May it lead many souls to Jesus through Mary,
so that we may know you and your saving power
now and for all eternity.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.  Amen.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us!
St. Dominic, pray for us!
