Ep 101 - Novena Day 1 - Overing Temptations

We discuss how St. John Vianney overcame temptation and begin a novena for the feast of St. John Vianney.

St. John Vianney Novena - Day 1

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Saint John Vianney, you were blessed with a loving and devout family who supported your desire to increase your faith and devote yourself fully towards imitating the life of our Lord Jesus Christ. In your quest to pursue your holy vocation, you were not deterred by the many obstacles that came your way. Your strong faith carried you through all of life’s trials to your place in God’s kingdom.

Obtain for me the same courage and faith that allowed you to give all to God without counting the cost. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide me to the right decisions that will best serve God and my neighbor.

Believing in the power of your kind intercession, I humbly ask you to pray for me and the special intention I am hoping God will grant me through this novena. (here mention your special intention)

St. John Vianney, Priest of Ars, pray for our priests, and pray for us.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
